here is a little thing i use all the time to get into vi without having
to type a filename terribly often. all in the name of fewer keystrokes.
try it.

# This is a shell archive.  Remove anything before this line,
# then unpack it by saving it in a file and typing "sh file".
# Contents:  README Makefile MANIFEST edoc e.c
 
echo x - README
sed 's/^@//' > "README" <<'@//E*O*F README//'
basically e is a little thingamy to let you get into vi with more ease.
i find it useful - even given a shell with history. it keeps a short history
of the files that have been vi'ed most recently in each directory. thus it is 
nice to be able to do

cd somewhere
e

and get straight into the file you were last working on in the directory 
somewhere. 


there is some documentation and examples in the file edoc.
before compiling you should change the 
#define VI "/usr/ucb/vi"
line in e.c if your vi is located elsewhere.
and the DEST line in Makefile.

this will run just fine on 4.[23] but i suspect other versions will have 
a little trouble. the readdir/opendir stuff of BSD is used for spelling 
corrections and can be easily rewritten for nonBSD - or you can simply comment 
out the last two functions of e.c [spell_help() and sp_dist()] and all 
references to them at the cost of faster but maybe a less helpful program.

this appears free of major bugs (famous last words) - i'd really like to hear
about anything that goes wrong &/| fixes/enhancements. comments on what is
wrong and how it could be better/faster are also welcome...

e is an interface to vi that maintains a history of the most recently e'ed
files for each directory. it is used with exactly the same syntax etc as vi is.
a file called .e is kept in each directory. this contains the history and is 
kept to a small length (<10 lines). spelling corrections are suggested for 
simple mistakes (omitted character, interchanged characters, extra character). 
the history file is rearranged with each use to place the last e'ed file at
the end of the list. duplicate entries are removed (in most situations).
a list of the command line variations is given below.


e	        [vi's the last file that was e'ed in this directory]

e -	        [prints the history for this directory and allows selection
	         of a previous file - or a new one]

e .	        [prints the history for this directory without asking for input]

e -t tag    [the usual tag entry to vi]

e -r        [invokes vi -r]

e -r file   [invokes vi -r file]

e -pat      [vi's the last file that was e'ed with the string 'pat' on
	         the command line]

e +cmd	    [vi's the last file that was e'ed in this directory but executes
	         'cmd' on the way into vi]

e file	    [vi's the file and adds it to the history list. minor spelling
	         corrections are suggested if 'file' does not exist but is close 
	         (in spelling) to some file that does]

e files	    [vi's the files and adds them (as a single entry) to the history]


"features".
==========
when using "e -" the terminal is put into cbreak mode. if the first
character typed is a digit (in the acceptable range of history items)
then you will get the history item without further ado. thus if you
have a file called 4play and you try and "e" it from within a "e -"
then you'll probably end up it the wrong place.

also the history length must be less than or equal to 9 (the code sets
it to 8 at present (HIST_LINES)). this, i find, is enough but you may want
more. the problem with having more is that with "e -" you go into cbreak
and the first digit entered is taken to mean i want the nth last file. this
saves the need for hitting return. do what you will, but i like it this way.
with the history being kept as a most recently used list 8 file names 
should be enough.

the numbering on "e -" and "e ." is slightly different. the "e -" option
is meant so that you can look at the number next to the file name and hit
it easily. with "e ." you see what files you would get if you did a "e -3" (etc)
and so it makes sense that "e -1" should give the second last file. that way you
can pop in and out of two files by repeated "e -1"'s (if you don't do ctrl-^).
once again, that's the way it is...

examples.
=========
with a ".e" file containing 

	fred.c								[5]: fred.c
	jane								[4]: jane
	alison			"e ." will give		[3]: alison
	+/main pete.c						[2]: +/main pete.c
	bigmac								[1]: bigmac
	fries juice							[0]: fries juice

so "e" will get you fries and then juice.
"e -" will present the above and ask for a number (RETURN=0).
"e -ali" will get you alison.
"e +/ketchup" will get you fries and juice, searching for ketchup in fries.
"e bigamc" will ask if you want to correct to bigmac. n or N
	will do the correction, q or Q will quit, anything else will go ahead.


to be added?
============
allow backspacing on a select line.
uncompress and recompress .Z files automatically?
plenty of fancy things
