I don't know. I figure I will try it out on potato (my experimental
debian box). I have not unpacked it yet.

I have a question about vi. When I write an email, sometimes I go
back and insert text in the middle. I manually put returns in the
lines because my TERM is so large that I don't want the messages to
go way across. On Pine I could hit ^J and it would justify all
my text again. How do I get that back?
