Question Vi editor


I am currently taking a college course in Linux and one of my assingments was to find the filesize of the Vi editor. I assume that I need to find which directory Vi is located then, using the ls command review the directory contents. is this correct? If so, what is the path for the vi directory?

mikshaw,
If you are refering to this part .... "Do not expect LQ members to do your homework - you will learn much more by doing it yourself."

Then I would have to say that IMHO everyone who posts a question here is asking someone else to do their homework.
