John,

   I use vi only under duress. :-) For SysAdmin tasks I use 'joe' since it
has the same key bindings as emacs and the ol' WordStar that I used in the
late 1970s - early 1980s. And I use emacs for all serious text editing.

   Yep. It brings back a vague memory from the last time her portable ran
Slackware that I had to add a line to /etc/sudoers, too.

Thanks,

Rich
