Preferences may differ;-) But vi isn't actually that bad, it just takes a bit of time to get used to it. Then you're all set for most simple things you need to do. And whatever UNIX system you get to work with it will always have some version of vi, so you're never completely lost when your favorite editor isn't available;-)

But, of course, the vi editor on the PB as it is is unusable (unless you manage to e.g. telnet into the device). We'll need some program interfacing with it on the device. Then it might become useful for stand-alone work like editing a configuration file. Let's see;-)

Best regards, Jens
