Seriously, I think everybody should know vi, but I personally think of
it as being like a parachute -- if I'm using it, it's because
something's gone horribly wrong. If I'm using vi, I'm probably booted
into single user mode off a rescue disc.

vim, not vi - vim fixes a lot of the annoyances of vi.

If you're in single user:

ed, man! man ed!

I'm thinking you're definitely needed in the "Java wants to beat us" thread.

I couldn't resist :slight_smile:
