vi.iv is a modified version of vi, including right-to-left editing. vi.iv includes all vi commands as well as the additional following commands: set the primary direction set rl for right-to-left set lr for left-to-right switch temporarily from the primary direction to the secondary direction ctrl-x, when in insert mode There are a few known bugs: when typing too fast, the wrong characters sometimes are displayed; searching and replacing are problematic (but are supposed to work); sometimes you have to switch to command mode in order to see your last modifications to the file. vi.iv is maintained by the Technion CS system engineers.
