I mostly use emacs at work ( just used to the keyboard macros and such ) but I can make up a cheat sheet for vi. Many of the others are more familiar with vi than I am, not having grown up in the UNIX world. I'll just do a man on vi to get the important commands. like save and exit. I've used vi a couple times but just not that familiar with it. Dwight
