Tha^n cha`o ca'c ba.n, VNElvis is a clone of vi/ex (the standard UNIX editor) that allows the displaying and editing of documents in the Vietnamese 8-bit VISCII (VIetnamese Standard Code for Information Interchange) (RFC 1456) data format using the 7-bit VIQR (VIetnamese Quoted Readable) input method. It is expected that you will run vnelvis w/in a vnterm. Because of the way vi utilizes various key strokes, it may be better to turn off vnterm's VIQR processing and allow vnelvis to handle the VIQR input itself. You do this by "set vnkeys". Because "dd" --> "-d" in VIQR, "qq" has been added as a means of deleting a line. Otherwise vnelvis behaives as expected. David O'Brien obrien@cs.ucdavis.edu
