This is how vi is supposed to work, no?  If I'm not in insert mode already,
then <ESC>h only does a home cursor, and does NOT put me in insert mode.  If
I am already in insert mode, then <ESC>h does a home cursor and keeps me
in insert mode, as I would expect since this is how the HOME key is coded.

This problem is not a "bug", but rather an unfortunate feature of the way
vi is.  For a discussion of the roots of this "problem", see page 222 of
"Advanced UNIX Programming" by Marc J. Rochkind.

The first response to this note is a letter from Jeff Fromm (Legal Dept)
regarding HP-UX 5.x vs HP-UX 6.x licensing.  I asked Jeff for the correct
(legal) procedure for upgrading 5.x machines to 6.x.

Part 2.

In response to your HPDesk message concerning the updating of
existing in-house HP-UX computers to newer versions of HP-UX -
it is no longer OK to update earlier object code connect by VS-2000 using Async DECnet
and run IP over DECnet to get back to SRI [which we implement in the
kernel]!
