Indeed, VIM is much better. VIM is VI-IMproved, coded by Bram Molenaar
([EMAIL PROTECTED]). It contains e.g. Syntax highlighting in the newest version 5.0.
It's also much easier to use than vi. Anyway, I also use VIM whenever I edit
something on the workstations and terminals here at the university. Also these
TeX files I told you about. But ofcourse I _could_ also use e.g. TED on MSX to
write these TeX files. That was my point.
But hey, VI ported to MSX would be fantastic! Especially if it would be VIM.
Joon-Sung Kim: why don't you contact Bram Molenaar?
