Well, I've really only used vim, but I just tried vi on a SunOS box
(uhunix2)
and line numbering seems to behave the same way. You are referring to
:set number
yes?
Vim does have a vi-compatibility mode that is on by default unless you have
a ~/.vimrc file. you can force it on by
:set cp
But since I don't recognize any difference in behavior I can't tell you if
that makes a difference or not.
I guess the best way to find out if /bin/vi does what you want or not is to
just try it.
