I think I found a bug in vi. I haven't checked the code for a fix.
If anyone else has noticed this and has the fix please reply to
me.
Given:
file x is nonexistant
file y has arbitrary text
$ vi x
:r y
ZZ
Nothing gets written to file x. The buffer status does not get
changed to 'modified' (I checked with a ^G). Any ideas?
