vi

[Patrick Dupre]

Hello,

How can I keep stored the commands of vi from call to call?
cf.
1,$s/  //

I would like to have it back next time that I edit other file.

Thank.

Maybe it's just my installation but doesn't vanilla vim do that per default? Just press : and up-arrow and old commands should appear.

Within vim, enter command mode and type:

:help history

for pointers on how to do this.

Make sure you have the "vim-enhanced" package installed.  IIRC, on core 
installs you'll only get the "vim-minimal" package.

[Patrick Dupre]

thank you very much.

Actually you need to use wim

Yes, but as long as you have the "vim-enhanced" package installed, "vi" 
should be an alias for "vim"

I do not think so:
viw-enhanced rovides:

/etc/profile.d/vim.csh
/etc/profile.d/vim.sh
/usr/bin/rvim
/usr/bin/vim
/usr/bin/vimdiff
/usr/bin/vimtutor

only /etc/profile.d/vim.sh
provide the alias to vi

Am I right?

I guess I'm not sure what you're asking.  The "vim-enhanced" package 
provides /etc/profile.d/vim.sh (and a csh equivalent).  That file should 
be sourced by your shell, and alias "vi" to "vim".  Thus, as long as you 
have the "vim-enhanced" package installed, "vi" should be an alias for 
"vim".

Why do you not think so?
