Hi!  Silly, stupid question.  How do I set line numbers on
when using Elvis?  I tried :set nu but I got an unrecognized
command-type error.  How compatible is Elvis with vi?  Is
there any way I could get source to use QEDIT on Unix?  I
like the editor quite a bit.  Thanks whole big bunches of
bananas!
