Actually Bruce, although the ae imposter is still included, it has been superceded by a tiny version of elvis. The worst part of it is that this version refuses to let other versions of vi execute after they have been installed. I haven't had the time to look into it and figure out a work around. I really hate it. It doesn't do word wrap and drops out of insert mode at very surprising times. I have several reports that installations of other vi packages are completely ignored and any call to vi continues to give the crippled elvis version.
