a text editor required

Hi,

i am stuck in the failsafe mode or if i even try to login from the single user mode i need a text editor all the editors in solaris 10 are useless they are graphical but i am stuck in command line please guide me something simple such as vim in linux because vim in solaris has problem even with the back space and other keys it really is not a good option i was using gedit but now my computer has got a problem and i need command line.

i am a newbie to solaris and was using linux so it was much easier please help if you know how to get one good editor to work on command line.

best regds

you can use delete in suns vi instead of backspace. Also just remember to hit esc before trying to move the cursor. Once you get on your feet check out pkg-get at either sunfreeware.org or blastwave.org. If you install the pkg-get utility you can grab apps like vim from the command line when you need them.
