Um...k...I think I just screwed things up...first mistake is that I was playing around with the root terminal, I know, big mistake. Well, in the .profile file, the part that says TERM=<terminal type>, I changed that to TERM=<xterm-color>, 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..
