Loading VIP
===========

   The recommended way to load VIP automatically is to include the line:
     (load "vip")

in your `.emacs' file.  The `.emacs' file is placed in your home
directory and it will be executed every time you invoke Emacs.  If you
wish to be in vi mode whenever Emacs starts up, you can include the
following line in your `.emacs' file instead of the above line:
     (setq term-setup-hook 'vip-mode)

(Note: Vi Mode, for the explanation of vi mode.)

   Even if your `.emacs' file does not contain any of the above lines,
you can load VIP and enter vi mode by typing the following from within
Emacs.
     M-x vip-mode
