On another front. I know I've asked this before in v6, and possibly 
related to v7, but I can't find the notes anywhere. vi doesn't come with 
v7. So, has anybody put it on v7 in simh? I saw a thread sometime back 
where vi on v7 wasn't the main topic, where Warren? I think it was, said 
he'd done it and it was "easy." I don't suppose there are any notes 
laying around telling how this might be accomplished?

I do see vi in 2bsd.tar, I don't suppose there is a  'how to install 
2bsd on v7" note around either?

Thanks,

Will

Yes. See here:

for the details of how it works.
