I installed mutt from ports and printed the "Mutt Manual" from mutt.org. In perusing the mutt manual I have two imminent questions. 1) On a default mutt install where the heck is .muttrc? I can't find it in /etc or in /usr/local/share/mutt as the manual says. Do I need to build my own, or am I gonna break something doing this? (Outside my own mistakes in .muttrc of course) 2) Is it possible for me to "call" vi as my editor of choice rather than use the Emacs-style editor built into mutt? I have no "religious" bias against Emacs, I am just sticking to the fewest possible variables on the learning curve at any one time and am learning vi for portabilities sake. As always, I thankfully await your sage recommendations. -- Phil Webb http://www.piperain.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
