Is there any way of getting vi to  :-
a> re-read its .exrc
b> read its .exrc file from a different directory??

also if anyone has any hints on setting up vi (yes we have a relatively
decent one which even has ex commands and :set etc etc) on an IBM/Novell
network I would be most gratefull for any news from people who have
encountered (and maybe conquered?) the problems incurred with vi and mapped
user directories.

much thanx in advance
