FBSDBOOT.EXE hasn't worked for years. It should be taken off the CD. > Vi, the editor, one dumb question, is there a way to select more text than > one line? The command 'yy' only select one line.

For example, 10yy yanks 10 lines. You can also use the 'm' command to set a mark and then yank from that mark to the current line. For example, go to the first line of the region and type 'ma'. Now move down to the line below the last line in the region you want to yank and type 'y`a'. See the vi man page for more info on marks, etc. -- John Baldwin <jhb@FreeBSD.org> -- http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ PGP Key: http://www.cslab.vt.edu/~jobaldwi/pgpkey.asc "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
