Don't take this in a bad way, but next time you post here, try to make
it under the thought of the list's use. This is a CRUX mailing list and
I think doubts wich aren't directly related to CRUX musn't be here.

Taking a look to vim's FAQ you can see that there is a point related to
backups.

Ok , point taken. I'll follow the spirit of this list and only post issues
who are crux specific and not wide unix issues.

Sorry for the disturbance

You could also add it to the global rc file (like many other distributions
do). Is there any particular reason for disabling it by default?
