It doesn't matter how many times I've used vi(m), I will /always/ think that I'm in edit mode right when I open it. Just a natural reaction, or something, but I start arrowing around and try to type something, just to have it yell at me and realize that I have to get out of read/command mode.

... and I know you can launch vim in "easy" mode (-y), but I never remember to do that and that's completely besides the point, because at that point you may as well just use nano. ;)

Nick
