Very painful, if you are used to nvi from BSD. A few days ago I finally got around to creating an RPM for nvi. Install, add "alias vi=nvi view=nview ex=nex", instant relief. The idea that somebody might actually go out of his way to install vim on a BSD box where there's a perfectly functional nvi is just repugnant. I'm not sure what all this means for emacs. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.rhein-neckar.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
