The ksh builtin command 'unalias' can be used to remove the vi alias
from the environment.  You can either enter in the command 'unalias vi'
at the shell prompt, or put that command in your .env/.profile.  You
may want to verify that vi is being automagically aliased by ksh via
the 'alias' builtin command.  Enter 'alias -x' at the shell prompt,
all exported aliases will be listed on your display.  If the solution
mentioned above doesn't work, you may try putting the following command
in your .env file: alias -x vi='SHELL=/bin/ksh vi'.  This is a waste of
resource having to run a sub-shell just to run vi, but that's what it's
doing anyway by running /bin/sh to run vi ...
