Operating Systems HP-UX instead VI editor - which one? Post 72647 by zazzybob on Monday 23rd of May 2005 09:35:40 AM

You may find something like nano to be easy to use.

I would, however, recommend that you learn to use vi - whilst confusing at first, it soon becomes second nature - and you can always depend on it to be available on all but the most archaic flavours of UNIX out there.
