Well, in the .profile file, the part that says TERM=, I changed that to TERM=, big mistake, because now every time I log in as root and try to use vi it comes up saying 'vi: No terminal database found'. So I do 'TERM=cons25' and then 'export TERM' and that temporarily works but the editors are all screwed up. So what do I do now to get myself out of this mess?

I use it on my system usually in crowded directories so I can tell what is what.. Cheers..
