Thanks for all the info guys.  While I have Elvis, I haven't played
with it yet, being more of an Emacs guy, but I have played with Stevie
(the version posted in c.b.a.s earlier this year) to learn vi better
and have found one annoying bug when using it in my setup.  I have TOS
1.4, and run the 2 patches for it, along with a lot of other auto
programs and DAs (mostly in Multidesk).  I will be eliminating most
all of the auto load stuff tonight, but want to know about any
documented problems with Stevie.  My problem?  Stevie won't :!q when I
ask it to (a major bug for a guy who depends on that command to keep
him out of trouble 8-) it prints out something *like* : "Hit Return to
continue" and then repaints the screen, I can _only_ quit after I have
written the file out.  What's the problem and what's the solution?  If
the sources came on c.s.a.s, I probably have them, and I have Laser C.

thanks,
