That's rather odd. Okay, thanks. That works beautifully. I *really* wish the help stuff for nvi was more helpful so I wouldn't have to learn this stuff on the mailing list. All this time, I thought all I could do with u is one level each of undo and redo. I suspect I've been mistrained by Vim's subtle incompatibilities with traditional vi. Thanks for setting me straight. I'll give nvi a try as my primary editor for a while, and see if I run into any other show-stopping problems. -- Chad Perrin [ original content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ]
