Listmates, Devs: I upgraded to testing to test the new dmraid. As part of the upgrade, vi was changed in a BIG way. (I could hardly use the thing and I have been using it for 20 years) The screen flashes when you double-escape, in insert mode if you move to colum 1 things go nuts, insert mode is changed into some kind of vampire. None of the normal key mappings work, and I can't get my beloved vi back by restoring the virc from the virc.pacnew - GGRrrrr :-( How do I make my vi return to normal? What's the trick? If restoring the virc and changing the settings has no effect (I even logged out and back) Wher are the magic settings now? And... if the version I have can't be made to behave like my normal vi/vim again, "Then what is the proper way to downgrade vi so I can get my friend back? -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
