vi is a screen-oriented text editor originally created for the Unix operating system. '''Author:''' Bill Joy '''Homepage:''' http://ex-vi.sourceforge.net/ '''Download:''' https://sourceforge.net/projects/ex-vi/files/ex-vi/050325/ex-050325.tar.bz2/download '''Family:''' ViFamily '''Platform:''' Unix-like '''License:''' BSD License or CDDL The original code for vi was written by Bill Joy in 1976, as the visual mode for a line editor called ex that Joy had written with Chuck Haley. Bill Joy's ex 1.1 was released as part of the first Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD) Unix release in March 1978. It was not until version 2.0 of ex, released as part of Second BSD in May 1979 that the editor was installed under the name "vi" (which took users straight into ex's visual mode), and the name by which it is known today. Some current implementations of vi can trace their source code ancestry to Bill Joy; others are completely new, largely compatible reimplementations.
