/usr/portage/app-editors/vi

>emerge vim

did the trick. vim includes a 

/usr/bin/vi -> vim 

symlink. How would emerge react if 
I hadn't unmerged vi first?

It turned out I was indeed using vi (and 
not vim, as I was in the RH box). emerging
vim now, and we'll see what happens...

Thanks for the pointer...

[gentoo-user] vi & arrow keys

[Anders Eriksson]

Hi,

Anyone knows how to get the arrow keys to work in vi?
If I'm in 'insert-mode' and I press '<-' I get a
screen refresh and I get back to command mode so I
have to press 'i' to get back to insert mode. The 
arrow keys do the right thing in command mode, though.

My old RH box allows the arrows keys to be used in 
insert mode, so iknow it can be done

I tried both "localhost" "127.0.0.1" and "hostname.domain". No dice. 
I'll dig into it tomorrow (after openoffice compile...)

Re: [gentoo-user] Minimal Gentoo install

Hi folks,

I'd like to add a warning here. I (being a longtime Linux and distcc 
user, albeit a gentoo newcommer) tried emerge -e world with distcc. 
It turned out that zlib did NOT like that. For some reason it, during 
./configure, decided that my system was not shared-object capable, 
and skipped building the .so files. Not fun at all. Even distcc with 
just "127.0.0.1" in the group trigged it.

I'm currently finishing -e world without distcc, I can provide 
details later if needed.

/Anders
