Bug: Vi Goes Wiled Via Ssh

[niv]

I must start by saying I don't like VI.
in order to add nano I had to edit it the ipkg.conf.

so I use vi :-(
moving to the buttom of the first screen, the text started going wield.

when I :wq lots of text i put was missing.

did any one used vi via ssh Like I did?
any chance to add nano as a standard editor?

I haven't had any problem using vi over ssh or on the machine itself.  I installed micro-emacs, but it took me forever to figure out what it was called (mec).

you probably needed to set the terminal variable.

Code: [Select]

TERM=vt100
export TERM

[niv]

10x blue.
aint there a .login I ca put this in, so it will run when ever I ssh to my zaurus?

Generally if you are using bash you can put it in .bashrc

Generally if you are using bash you can put it in .bashrc
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=86063\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Or .profile for regular sh.

[niv]

I did that, still vi behaves bad if I move too fast , of beyond end of line.

I am ssh ing from a pc to the 5500, tring to fix the .bashrc , so ldconfig and the rest of the programs I am tring to install will work...

I mean setting u the path.

[bluedevils]

and you typed

Code: [Select]

env|grep TERM to see if the TERM variable is correct?
