New topics in Learning the vi Editor include multiscreen editing and coverage of four vi clones: vim, elvis, nvi, and vile. and their extension, such as multiwindow editing, extended, regular expression, and GUI interfaces.This small book is a handy reference guide to the information in the larger volume, presenting movement and editing commands, the commandline options, and other elements of the vi editor in an easytouse tabular format.ABOUT THE AUTHORArnold Robbins an Atlanta native now happily living in Israel, is a professional programmer and technical author, and author of the second edition of OReillys Sed & Awk.
