-------------------------------------------------------
Entering Text
In order to begin entering text in this empty file, you must change from command mode to insert mode. To do this, typeiNothing appears to change, but you are now in insert mode and can begin typing text. In general, vi's commands do not display on the screen and do not require the Return key to be pressed.
Type a few short lines and press <Return> at the end of each line. If you type a long line, you will notice the vi does not word wrap, it merely breaks the line unceremoniously at the edge of the screen.
If you make a mistake, pressing <Backspace> or <Delete> may remove the error, depending on your terminal type.
Moving the Cursor
To move the cursor to another position, you must be in command mode. If you have just finished typing text, you are still in insert mode. Go back to command mode by pressing <Esc>. If you are not sure which mode you are in, press <Esc> once or twice until you hear a beep. When you hear the beep, you are in command mode.The cursor is controlled with four keys: h, j, k, l.
Key Cursor Movement
--- ---------------
h left one space
j down one line
k up one line
l right one space
When you have gone as far as possible in one direction,
the cursor stops moving and you hear a beep. For example,
you cannot use l to move right and wrap around to the next
line, you must use j to move down a line. See the section
entitled "Moving Around in a File" for ways to move more
quickly through a file.Basic Editing
Editing commands require that you be command mode. Many of the editing commands have a different function depending on whether they are typed as upper- or lowercase. Often, editing commands can be preceded by a number to indicate a repetition of the command.Deleting Characters

With vi, you edit a copy of the file, rather than the original file. Changes are made to the original only when you save your edits.To save the file and quit vi, type
ZZThe vi editor editor is built on an earler Unix text editor called ex. ex commands can be used within vi. ex commands begin with a : (colon) and end with a <Return>. The command is displayed on the status line as you type. Some ex commands are useful when saving and closing files.
