Interestingly, that command doesn't work on this here IRIX box. The :viusage command isn't standard. It's an nvi'ism. However, it should be noted that the program called vi on IRIX is obviously a bad SGI internal implementation because they brake all sorts of things including undo. They include GPL'd software in their distribution, you'd think they could use a working vi link nvi. -- Brooks -- "Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security, will not have, nor do they deserve, either one" --Thomas Jefferson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
