- Vim is by far the leading Vi clone, currently. It supports UNIX, OS/2, AmigaOS,
- WindowsNT and DOS. I have used Vim under DOS, as well as Linux (comes with
- Slackware) HP-UX, and SunOS.
-
- It has some neat extensions of vi while remaining highly compatible. A good
- release is Vim 3.0, though a 4.0 has been rumored.
-
- A WS-like editor for HP-UX might be ``joe''.
