+Nvi is an implementation of the ex/vi text editor.
+Nvi supports all the historic ex/vi features except for open mode and the
+lisp edit option (it has a fully implemented underlying ex mode). Some
+additional features are: extended regular expressions, infinite undo, and
+multiple edit buffers. Nvi has a very small memory footprint.
