Call the AT&T Hotline at 800-922-0354.  When you purchased Unix, you
also purchased 90 days of free support for the product.  In addition,
AT&T will send out maintenance fixes for quite a while (technically a
year, but it seems to be the life of the product).

There were three maintenance releases put out for Unix 3.2.2.  They are
cumulative fixes.

However, I do not recall seeing anything about changing the way vi works.

Good luck.
