using paragraph seperator in vi – the easy way

imap aa 80i-io

Just put this in the vimrc or in a vi session with a : in normal mode.

Explanation:

This will map the key &#8221;aa&#8221; to the sequence which will add &#8221;-&#8221; 80 times in the current line and then go to new line in insert mode. This is quite simple so any changes required should be simple enough to make.
