. <- Raid, kills bugs Okay, would any vi hacks out there like to explain the following to me. 1. Why is the 'Y' command destroyed by mapping the character '_' (underscore 0x5f) to any command sequence? This destruction is reversed by unmapping that character. 2. Why is the ":cd" command documented only in the source? 3. Why does the undocumented command '~' (tilde 0x7e) not accept an repeat count? 4. Why does using the 'R' command to replace text, when the replacement continues past column 80 (and wraps), semi-trash the next line? By semi-trash, I mean that causing vi to redisplay those characters will cause it to display the wrong characters, until a '^L' (form feed 0x0c), 'z' or other screen re-drawing command is done.
