- You will have to "RTFM," because it is impossible to explain
- the whole thing here. Elvis will look for a file called
- elvis.rc in the directory that is pointed to by the home
- environment variable (set home=some_directory_name).
-
- The easiest way to create an elvis.rc in elvis 1.6 is to
- configure using :set and :map commands from inside the
- editor, then issue the command :makerc
- This will create an elvis.rc for you, with the present
- settings.
-
- You can map any keys you want, including function keys and
- shifted function keys.
-
- If you don't have version 1.6, it's worth getting it. If you
- want help getting it, send me email.
