Somebody requested that I post what I figured out ... so here is a little mini tutorial on what I found.
>From the command line if you type: 'vi file1 file2' you will see vi brought up, and you will see the contents of 'file1'. This can be done with as many files as you want. You can go back and forth between those two files by typing: ':prev' or ':next' in command mode. If you forget which files you have open, or which file you are currently looking at, you can type ':args' in command mode. At the bottom of the screen a message will be displayed that reads something like: '[file1] file2' The file name that is in between the [ ] is the file that you are currently looking at. If you want to change the files that you are working on so that you only have file1, then you just type in: ':args file1' in command mode. Just like from the command line, you can have as many files as you want after args ... If anybody has any questions please feel free to let me know. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Linux Users Group.
