It would appear you don't know how to use vi. It might be easier to try with, e.g., nano instead until you have the time to learn. – XTL Jan 8 at 8:49

10 second vi primer... First, use vim. Second, type i before trying to insert anything. Third, type ESC to get back to control mode. Fourth, type :x to save and exit. Fifth, Google it. – Alex Chamberlain Jan 8 at 9:17
