in reply to A good editor for Perl sources

I use vi (available on real Unix systems), a vi-clone of my choice (available on most platforms), or vim if I cannot avoid it (Linux boxes I haven't had the chance to install something sensible). It works for me, so I call it a good Perl/C/HTML/shell/SQL/Python/mail/news/plain text/Java/Pascal/awk/Ruby editor.

But I use black on gray for all my highlighting; so, I would never have a problem with arrows.

    Just out of curiosity, why the preference for vi over vim? I've always thought of vim as a more advanced version of vi.
