Starting vi
Start vi by entering the command vi filename at the prompt, where filename is the
name of the file that you wish to either create, view, or alter. If a file called filename
already exists, the first screen of the file will be displayed, as shown in Figure 7-1.
If the file does not exist, it is created and you see a screen like Figure 7-2.
