   You again seem to know everyones habits? (I don't.)   
   But I'm sure this is true for the most (all?) free   
   Unixes at least.   
      
   Personally I edit my files with "vi" on my system.   
   Since I am using Linux this "vi" is of course Vim.   
      
   But I wouldn't expect that commercial Unixes come   
   with Vim. (Please CMIIW; I have meanwhile decades   
   to work on commercial Unixes and maybe things have   
   changed. Anyone who knows?)   
      
   Anyway, the taxonomy should be made clear; it's a   
   *big* difference if you have a yet still powerful   
   but (in comparison to Vim) restricted Vi as the   
   functional base of a clone, or whether you have a   
   Vim.   
      
   BTW, to my knowledge there had been Vi clones on   
   Windows, too. In a document I wrote some decades   
   ago I find (besides the ones I mentioned upthread)   
   also calvin, elwin, lemmy, viper - some (or all?)   
   may be or have been available on Windows or DOS?
