[olug] vim version (vim behavior)

[Mike Peterson]

Red Hat 9 comes with vim-common-6.1-29.
It treats comments fine and there is not .vimrc file.
See if your distribution  has created one for your user account?

If not, you need to create the .vimrc file and put the settings in it that
you want off that are on.
