I wrote a Vi emulator for GNU Emacs version 17.  This emulator, VIP
(for VI Package), was orginally written for Gosling Emacs about 3 years
ago.  The version for Gosling Emacs was very incomplete because Mock
Lisp is less powerful than Emacs Lisp.

The version for GNU Emacs is, I believe, useful for those who have
experiences in Vi and wish to use Vi under powerful GNU Emacs environment.

A Vi Emulator for GNU Emacs was posted about a month ago.  The emulator
is called Evi (Emulated or Emacsed vi).  In spite of this, I post this
article as I believe there are several good points in my package too.
VIP works more like Vi than Evi in several respects.

If YOU are interested in trying VIP please send me a mail to the following
address:

	sato@su-russell.arpa

I will post the code if there are enough interests.
