>Can you buy a version of 'vi' for MS-DOS machines?

You can purchase the vi editor for MS-DOS from MKS.  I think you can still
buy vi separately but I recommend buying the "MKS Toolkit".  The toolkit
contains LOTS of UNIX utilities (awk, diff, grep, sed, ...), and costs
only a little more. The toolkit price is $199 from MKS, or less from the
software houses.  Here's the MKS address from the March issue of Computer
Language:

	MKS (Mortice Kern Systems Inc.)
