All well and good -- but I find a need for VI/VIM about once every two<br>
years or so. I am not going to remember arcane commands/key combinations<br>
that I use that infrequently. It would have taken longer to find the<br>
tutorial and read through it to figure out how to get the cursor quickly to<br>
the end of the file than to just continue pressing on the down-arrow. :)<br>
After all I didn't want to actually edit the file, just read it.<br>
