If you're new to Unix/Linux, and you don't actually _need_VI, then use something friendly like MC, or pico, or joe

- joe works fine for me . . . commands are similar to old word-processor -"Star-Writer" [if I recall]

The default keybindings are based loosely on "WordStar", which had a lot of clones that used the same commands. (NewWord, Star-Writer, etc.) There's a link to the same executable called 'jstar'. If you run that one, it uses an alternate set of keybindings that are even more WordStar-like. If you run it as 'jemacs' it uses an emacs-like set of keybindings.

Cool! Although it turns out it is 'jmacs', at least on my openSUSE 10.2. -- Jonathan Arnold (mailto:jdarnold@buddydog.org) Daemon Dancing in the Dark, an Open OS weblog: http://freebsd.amazingdev.com/blog/ UNIX is user-friendly.
