I want to Vim to behave like nvi when opening a in an empty buffer.This is an empty buffer:----------------------------------------~~~~----------------------------------------After typing oHello, world!<esc> I want to get this result (which is how it behaves in the original Vi):----------------------------------------Hello, world!~~~----------------------------------------In Vim i get this result instead (notice extra blank line):----------------------------------------Hello, world!~~----------------------------------------Is there any way I can get Vim to behave like nvi when opening new lines in an empty buffer?I think the nvi behavior is much more useful when I want to type something like 8oEight long lines...<esc> in an empty buffer. Then I don't have to remove the extra blank line that Vim always creates when doing that.
