Hi all,
In previous fedora releases vi would display the cursor position as "row number" "character position" in the bottom right of the display. In f14's release of vi this is no longer true.
I've looked through the command reference and don't see any way to restore that behavior.
Is this something lost from the compiled distribution or is there some *:set* method that will turn it back on and, if so, would somebody share the magic formula?
TIA, Mike Wright
On my machines both under F14 and F15 the cursor positions are displayed. vi is really vim. This could be set by a :set command but I can't find the right one when I looked quickly. On my machine as I said the correct option is set by default.
You can try :set all to find the option and place it in the .vimrc file in your home directory.
