If it was compat by default then you
wouldn't learn any of the new stuff.
set compatible
Shouldn't all that be solved by acting compatible if called as
`vi' and being free from compatibility bounds when called as
`vim'?
If I say `vi' I want a vi. If I want Vim, I say so. (No matter
if these are links to the same binary.)
Problem solved. Everyone happy?
