When you hit space bar it goes to the next character in VI editor. At the end of line, in Solaris it stops and doesn't go to the next line. But in Linux it goes to the first character of the next line. The file has more than 80 characters. When opened in vi it shows 600 lines in both Solaris and Linux. Also wc -l gives the same count in Solaris and Linux.
The Linux version is Red Hat Linux 2.6.18-53.el5
The Solaris version is SunOS 5.9
The vi on Red Hat Linux is VIM - Vi IMproved version 7.0.237
