perhaps. I type "vi" everywhere, sometimes I get vim, sometimes I get nvi, but it's always there (except in some odd non-POSIX spins where they truly give a stripped down system and you have to add EVERYTHING). And on Debian/Ubuntu/RH/Slack, when I type "vi", the splash screen says "vim" :-) > (Who kan't kwite kome to kterms with kommand knames in kkubuntu.)
