Nvi initial experience-Linux Release Technology-Debian information. The following is a detailed description. Debian is installed with nvi by default. This should be the closest to the vi on the original UNIX in all vi clones. I haven't found how to write the configuration file in manual for a long time. Google has no results. I found a vi tutorial and found that there was no configuration file. All initial settings are set by setting variables in. login. (The. login mentioned here should be equivalent to. profile .)
For example, set the following variables:
EXINIT = 'set autoindent verbose showmode'
It can be automatically indented, display more error information, and display the current mode (nvi does not display the current insert mode or command mode by default ).
The occupied space is more than 700 KB, and the 20 MB of vim is not an order of magnitude. Startup speed, not much difference. For the first time, if vim is blinking, The nvi won't even blink. However, if you start vim or nvi again within a period of time, the speed will be no different because it is in the memory. As for the speed difference during running, it is even more difficult to feel. (The runtime response is that it is hard for emacs to be on a business trip .) However, if you ssh to a remote host, the estimated speed difference will be reflected.
