more has a feature where it can invoke your editor. If VISUAL and EDITOR are undefined in your environment, it insists that 'vi' exist somewhere on your path. I ensured this was the case by editing setup.hint accordingly. However, this may have been a bit extreme, so cgf may want to remove vim as a dependency in the setup.hint, now that he has volunteered to be the more maintainer. -- Eric Blake -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
