I found an obtuse unpleasantness with vi that occurs only under unusual circumstances: If /lib/makekey and /usr/lib/makekey do not exist, or are inexecutable, and you try vi -x or ex -x, vi will core dump. I've fixed it for Dual, so if it sounds worth bothering over, write me and I'll send you the fix. "I'm not a loose cannon! I just happen to be of slightly higher caliber" Joe Weinstein
