Current unstable Installed-Size: vim-tiny ranges from 696 to 1852 with a median of 898k. nvi ranges from 560 to 1040 with a median of 648k vim-tiny depends on the 200k-ish vim-common too, so nvi seems about half the total size of a vim-tiny today. > - even vim-tiny is much preferable to vim users over nvi, even without > vim-runtime > - vim can behave just like old vi (as nvi does), and will do so when > invoked as "vi" - vim-tiny is on fewer platforms than nvi, which seems as important as size or accuracy of emulation. -- MJ Ray - personal email, see http://mjr.towers.org.uk/email.html Work: http://www.ttllp.co.uk/ irc.oftc.net/slef Jabber/SIP ask -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
