Create the file if it doesn't exist. Also, the colour you've chosen for your text makes it difficult to see what you've written.

i am created the .vimrc file in the home directory with the help of vi editor. but i the problem is what ever the command i suppose to use , i want the comment line and after that the commnd line.

if i write c style comment line(#......) ,then each time when vi encouter there arise a some warning statements.

how to put the comment lines.

To post a comment within the .vimrc file you need to use the " character rather than # (or // etc.)

This

eg:
Code:
" Don't set vi-compatibility
set nocp

" Syntax highlighting only for vim-enhanced
if has("syntax")
    syntax on
endif
