Archlinux – Set Vim Alias

On Archlinux, you got the problem that even if you install vim, you have to type vim to open files with vim.

But normally you want to type vi and open the file with vim – as you know from other distributions.

The solution is setting a symbolic link, but its easyer on arch.

Just install the vi-vim-symlink Package from AUR

Now you got your symlink even without logging out.
