Re: Good luck to "vi" something - if you're not used to it
Totally agree, most howto's mention nano or pico, actually.
May I add that vi is an "impressive" little piece of software once you master it. I handle 2000+ pages worth of text almost exclusively with vi, split in some 500 files. I also use a bit of sed and awk.
