Welcome!
The problem is that I've always been able to use the cursor keys when editing with VIM under SuSE and RedHat and I can't seem to break the habit. So, I keep trashing the file I'm working on by using the control keys.
The first thing I do on my OpenBSD boxes after installing vim is to cd /usr/local/share/vim/vim?? (where ?? correspondes to the version of vim you are running for me it is 70 but for you it will probably be 6 something) and I copy the file vimrc_example.vim to ../vimrc (/usr/local/share/vim/vimrc) and edit it as I see fit. It provides some sane defaults and makes vim very usable for me. The other option would be to copy it to ~/.vimrc.
Thanks very much!
You're welcome!
