Our vi package, which is a subset of our Toolkit, containts vi, crypt, ctags, fg (to recall vi after putting it to sleep), fmt, glob (wildcard expander), jobs (to see how many sleeping vi's there are), sort, and switch (to change DOS switch character) for $75 US. Seems like a good deal to me, but I may be biased. :-) -- Gerry Wheeler Phone: (519)884-2251 Mortice Kern Systems Inc.
