Can someone tell me how to create the equivalent of the UNIX initialization
files .exrc, .profile et al for the MKS package of UNIX-like utilities on
MS-DOS? I realize that these filenames are illegal in MS-DOS (because you
can't have more than 3-letter extensions).

It would be handy to be able to set up my personal preferences for vi,
e.g. 'set eightbits', 'map! ^[OB ^[^[OB' etc. without having to explicitly
set them EVERY time I enter the editor.

Much obliged,
Steve.
