-------------------------------+------------------------------------------
 Since the last Macports update various users have complained about
 operational changes in vi/vim.

 1. the arrow keys and insert mode stopped working, we had to do the
 following
 Vim / Vi arrow keys making A,C, B etc characters instead of moving around
 in insert (‘i’) mode ?
 :set nocompatible
 2. viminfo seems to have stopped working, for remembering a search string
 across vi sessions
 We have no workaround other than /usr/bin/vi.

 All the above works fine in the Mac version in /usr/bin/vim
