Re: setting EXINIT to contain a ``:source'' command:
You can also create a file called ``.exrc'' in your home directory,
which ex/vi/view/e/edit/[what's the other one?]---these are all the
same program---will read every time it fires up. But I think the
idea was to have *file dependent* behaviour.
Some vi's will also read ./.exrc.
