	My problem in the "vi" editor is that when I down-arrow to 
certain lines, the text of that line is reproduced on that line when I 
right-arrow and then arrow to any other line.  I did not type any 
letter or get into any mode beforehand.  I am using a terminal type of 
"vt100" under FreeBSD 2.01.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
						Thanks,
