Ever since I tried OpenBSD I have replaced vi with mg. However, what if you SSH into someone's server and you have no Root access ? Sometimes you just need to know some Vi basics.

Hell, if push comes to shove I can scp mg's tarball and compile it there to get a local mg. > Sometimes you just need to know some Vi basics. The number of times I've seen that happen is 0.
