I feel your pain. There is a solution. > rick, who'd be happy as a clam in a bucket of beer if he had a classic > vi that would handle multiple buffers and color & indent his programs Well, ''classic`` vi? It's vim that has color syntax highlighting. Install the vim and vim-rt package, then try vi -V something.c You will see all the syntax files be sourced for color, and then do a :set or :set all, and see what types of indent options and format options are set automatically.
