By the way, for editing server files consider nano. It's also widely available, has simpler shortcuts and displays them on the screen. It's obviously not powerful like vim, but a good match when you just need to edit a config file.

Nano is just as fiddly as vim and way less powerful when you actually figure out what you're doing though?

Ie a completely redundant piece of software that has no place being pre-installed anywhere
