THIS IS VIGOR!

THIS IS NOT NVI!

Vigor is designed as a vi-compatible editor, with a little (*ahem*)
extra something thrown in.  It was inspired by the January 4, 2000
storyline in the User Friendly comic.  If you haven't seen it yet,
check it out at http://www.userfriendly.org/ (and do so in a place you
can freely laugh).  Go ahead, I'll wait.

First, let me take the blame for this atrocity, and make sure that
nobody gets the wrong idea about the authors of nvi (good people all).

Vigor is based on nvi, a wonderful vi-compatible editor written by
many people.  (See the README for a list of who wrote it, and what
they did.)  The Vigor build tree is mostly nvi.  In order to make this
in time, I took nvi and hacked it to little bits.  Vigor is not part
of nvi; it's a program that's based around it.  If you find bugs in
this code, you may safely assume that they are mine.  If you like the
editor, I suggest you check out the true nvi, at
http://www.bostic.com/vi/ (or ftp.bostic.com for the http-impaired).

I may at some point describe Vigor more.  But I need to go create my
monster now.
