Hello :

On large (VAX, 386 based systems, etc...) UNIX systems you can set
options for VI that will be processed by VI as soon as it starts
executing. eg. you can specify an environment variable EXINIT to
specify tabstop width.

So, I was wondering how can you do a similar kind of thing on the
Ms-DOS version of VI ???

Please e-mail responses directly to me (if possible).
Thanks in advance for your help.
