Or emacs.

Or vim inside emacs' terminal emulator.

Unfortunately, Vi is on the Arch install disc, but Emacs isn't (unless it's changed very recently). Though they of course could install it.

The arch install disk also has vim. The base install of arch doesn't include vim, but does include vi.

Orders of magnitude more likely that vi will get launched than emacs :-)

I've been there, by accident, two or three times.

The first time was really scary, since I did not know vi, yet, and did not know how to exit it or what in the world was going on...
