While I agree with you (and prefer vi-based editing. Personally, I use |
| 8 |
elvis since I came from Slackware) in this there is a subtle |
| 9 |
difference... nano -w is mentioned several times in the installation |
| 10 |
docs and is the default editor, where vim is not. This is my reasoning |
| 11 |
for not having vim (or perl, or links, or anything else unnecessary) on |
| 12 |
the "basic" CD. |
