[comp.os.minix] Minix vi?

Has anyone ever written a small vi for minix? If the code is available
via ftp, I would appreciate the address (or the code itself). Thanks.

Yes, both stevie and elvis might qualify.  stevie compiles on both the ST
and PC with the ACK compiler.  elvis presents a problem for the ACK asld on
the PC but can be compiled without difficulty using Bruce Evans bcc tools in
both 16-bit and 32-bit versions.

Sources for both can be had by anonymous ftp from the minix archive sites,
bugs.nosc.navy.mil & plains.nodak.edu
