yes that would work too..but its a developed habit....years
of using VI..

BTW thanks to everybody..I also found the following TERM
setting that would make this work in VI as well as
LESS (in xterminal windows):

         xterm1

just found the following /etc/termcap entry:

xterm1|xterm terminal emulator ignoring the alternate screen buffer:\
        :te@:ti@:\
        :tc=xterm:

thanks...
