(This is possibly the nerdiest discussion yet... But I will continue...)
Vi commands do have the look of line noise to the uninitiated. Why do I need to hit escape to edit stuff???
What's really scary is I just fired it up in Cygwin just now, and I've forgotten a lot of the key strokes! How did that happen??? I'd better go home and run Goatboy (my linux machine) some more...
And for some reason I'm not surprised you were doing Astrophysics as work experience, and further find that mental image highly amusing :-)
(I learnt Vi at Uni in 1994. And now I miss it...)
