2694	Install Vim to /bin	robert@…	lfs-book@…	"It would be nice to have a text editor available when we're in single user mode, or when /usr isn't installed. Vim can still be used, it doesn't link to anything in /usr/lib. So:
{{{
mv -v /usr/bin/vim /bin
}}}
And then in /etc/vimrc:

{{{
if (isdirectory(""/usr/share/vim""))
  syntax on
endif
}}}
And blam! Vim will work with basic functionality when /usr is not mounted, and will work normally when /usr is mounted, and it's all transparent.[[BR]]

I remember that at least 1 BLFS package, sudo I think, expects vi(m) to be in /usr/bin, but it's configurable."	enhancement	closed	low	6.7	Book	SVN	minor	wontfix
