Summary: and here's another one Message-ID: <1990Aug2.211449.24360@math-cs.kent.edu> Date: 2 Aug 90 21:14:49 GMT References: <39591@sequent.UUCP> <11626@ingr.com> Sender: news@math-cs.kent.edu (News Administrator) Organization: Kent State University, Dept. of Computer Resources Lines: 12 We have a problem here also with vi that when you edit a file and that file contains an ei: possibly followed by some text and then another : vi gives an error message. This happened on two machines, 1) Plexus P/75 running System V.2, and 2) Zilog Z80 running System V.2. The error message that we get on the zilog is bad register command and on the plexus it is something totally different.
