Ah, sorry - I use vim quite a bit and fooled myself into thinking tw was a standard vi setting. Actually, standard vi word wrap is the reverse. Instead of textwidth, it's wrapmargin: :set wm=8 is equivalent to :set tw=72 in vim. vim is a little over-featured, but some of those features are very nice. :) The syntax highlighting (in mail as well as code) is something I'm loath to do without. As an aside, I primarily use standard vi on Solaris, since Solaris never seems to understand my remote terminal well enough to allow syntax highlighting. Does anyone know how to fix that? :) Rob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
