I thought this was general knowledge, but from the responses so far, I guess
not:
You can toggle between two files in vi using the "CTRL SHIFT ~"
sequence. You will need to have autowrite set (set aw) if the file
has been changed. On some terminals, notably the vt100, a simple
"CTRL ~" will work, but this is, apparently, a hardware bug. What
the "CTRL SHIFT ~" sequence does is change you back to the previous
file you were editing. Hence it can be used to toggle between files.
