Hi,

Here's an extra hint - don't look for vi - look for vim.

/John.

No hint needed.  Even if you look for 'vi' you'll find the right thing.

That only works if there's a 'vi' in the path.  That wouldn't have

Another useful skill on finding what is where, is the 
"which" command. I type:

which vi

and I get

/usr/bin/vi

This can be useful in determining where something is.
