	We use 68010 VME-bus systems made by Ironics Inc. (IV-1600S) which
run Unisoft System V.  We almost exclusively use vi and have never experienced
the problem.  Could you be more explicit?  How do you quit vi (':q!', 'ZZ',
':q', etc.)?  Have you set any ex options?  Are you running in 'open mode'?
What is in the file '0'?
