I don't use vi myself.... but I think the point here is that anyone using
Linux should know *some* vi commands. I use it everytime I get done with
a fresh install and have nothing else to use.... while I make those one or
two line changes to config files to set up a network or such.
The point here is that vi is almost universal in being available on *any*
linux system including Tom's Root-boot floppy. But I don't suppose you've
ever used that either. :-)
And I too am an old fart like you imply you are.
