I'm not suggesting you forget about VI altogether, but you have got to move with the times. If that weren't the case this forum would be called FlatFilesSupport.com :)Quote:

I can see it now: I go into a new client who's box has just crashed. I say, "Sure, you're paying me $250/hr to get this thing back up, but I can't edit a text file until I install my editor."

If you feel a bit shaky on UNIX I've just spotted this book on amazon:
It might help, once it's released :)
Thank you, Tim. I don't really feel shaky...:))) I don't know UNIX at all...:))) Yeah....I'll get this book....If I'll know Linux, can I say that I know UNIX alltogether ? I mean, if I'll try to learn Linux at home, can I be sure that I'll be able to work with any version of UNIX ? ARe those versions similar ?
If you know Linux, you are almost there. There are some differences from platform to platform, but most of them are quiet close. Try to get to know of how to make use of the man pages, which would be really helpful to you during this learing process.
Unix Rules! :)

Thank you, sambavan. I already installed Red Hat Linux 7.2 on my computer. Manpages - it's like a help system in Linux ?
