When you purchased Unix, you also purchased 90 days of free support for the product. In addition, AT&T will send out maintenance fixes for quite a while (technically a year, but it seems to be the life of the product). There were three maintenance releases put out for Unix 3.2.2. They are cumulative fixes. However, I do not recall seeing anything about changing the way vi works. Good luck.
