Hi Edwin, It all depends on the level of difficulty the problem is and how well you know shell scripting vs. perl.

vi Qustion
I used to be able to use the arrow keys to move around with out any problems, but know when I move (with the arrow keys after pressing "i") to the beginning of the line I have to press I again. How do I change it so that I don't always have to press "i"? I hope that wasn't too confusing. example vi test.txt (hit i for inserting) bb bb bb (my problem is when I want to insert the letter "a" in font of each line ab ab ab Hope this makes sense.
