Now upload something to a fast site...
- how fast is it in the other direction?
Then try both directions at the same time...
- do the transfer rates shine when active in both directions?
(I can provide you with a "fast" site to upload to... if you need one
to test. I am very curious about the results of these tests)

The way I do it with vim:
- move to the top or bottom of the block
- 'V', then highlight the lines I want
- 'QQ' ... and indent the first line
The way I do it with standard vi:
- move to the top of the block
- 'J' to join all the lines together
- '!fmt' to line wrap the lines
I know there are better ways to do this stuff... I've just never looked
into it. Maybe someone else has a better way.
A few more things to try... that I think should work in vim:
- move to the top of the block
- 'Q}' ... done
TTFN,
Mike
