This seems bizarre. Logically, it would seem better to do a split like
vim (bare vim - what you would expect) and xvim (vim with X11) similar
to how emacs does emacs/xemacs.

or you could just use the original vi that comes with the base system if you
just want a console editor.

Totally different thing. The emacs port install GNU Emacs; the xemacs

sessions.
How can that be the case, when gvim is an X11 program?
I've used both -- give me good old console-based vim any day.
