Try 'x', but not in insert mode. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, January 07, 2001 2:04 PM To: debian-user@lists.debian.org Subject: re: How to get vi to delete characters
Most of the time I can get vi to insert characters after entering 'i' Also know how to :wq etc But I can't figure out how to delete characters: my book says ndd will delete N lines; but it doesn't work. In insert mode, backspace key often changes case of letters. Del key doesn't delete anything. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
