=Vi intentionally does not put all kinds of crap on your screen (like
=wordstar) other than the text.  

I beg your pardon.  WordStar only puts the crap that you want on the
screen.  It is Microsoft WORD that eats a large percentage of your
usable lines, trying to be friendly.  WS is too good an editor that has
been overlooked by the press for me to let that statement go by!
