- yaakushi 8y agoIsn't "view" just an alias to invoke vim on read-only mode (i.e. you can still edit the text, do anything else you can do on vim and then save the contents to another file instead of the original file)?
- Pete_D 8y agoThe man page suggests it's equivalent to "vim -R". I usually use that because "view" seems to ignore my .vimrc for some reason.
