I am not certain what your referring to, but it sounds like vi is just making the line longer, it may *appear* it is going to the next line but chances are good that its the same line. You can test this by typing several lines, then going back to command mode (<ESCAPE>) and scroll up and down the file, it will scroll one line at a time, if it jumps 2-3 lines at once, that is just 1 really long line. > moreover, can i have macros? doing the same repetitive thing? i will also > like to bind them to key strokes. probably, even though i've been using vi since 1995 I still barely know more then the real basics(and I use it everyday). > moreover, i have spell, ispell and aspell installed. is there a way i can > use them while in vi? probably..no idea how :) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
