+It is also a VI Plan for Emacs Rescue and a venomous VI PERil.
+
+Technically speaking, Viper is a Vi emulation package for GNU Emacs 19 and
+XEmacs 19.  It supports virtually all of Vi and Ex functionality, extending
+and improving upon much of it.
+
+   1. Viper supports Vi at several levels. Level 1 is the closest to Vi,
+      level 5 provides the most flexibility to depart from many Vi conventions.
+      
+      You will be asked to specify your user level in a following screen.
+   
+      If you select user level 1 then the keys ^X, ^C, ^Z, and ^G will behave
+      as in VI, to smooth transition to Viper for the beginners. However, to
+      use Emacs productively, you are advised to reach user level 3 or higher. 
+      
+      If your user level is 2 or higher, ^X and ^C will invoke Emacs
+      functions,as usual in Emacs; ^Z will toggle vi/emacs modes, and 
+      ^G will be the usual Emacs's keyboard-quit (something like ^C in VI).
+   
+   2. Vi exit functions (e.g., :wq, ZZ) work on INDIVIDUAL files -- they
+      do not cause Emacs to quit, except at user level 1 (a novice).
+   3. ^X^C EXITS EMACS.
+   4. Viper supports multiple undo: `u' will undo. Typing `.' will repeat
+      undo. Another `u' changes direction.
+   
+   6. Emacs Meta functions are invoked by typing `C-\\' or `\\ ESC'.
+      On a window system, the best way is to use the Meta-key.
+   7. Try \\[keyboard-quit] and \\[abort-recursive-edit] repeatedly,if
+      something funny happens. This would abort the current editing command. 
+      
+You can get more information on Viper by:
+
+   a. Typing `:help' in Vi state
+   b. Printing Viper manual, found in ./etc/viper.dvi
+   c. Printing ViperCard, the Quick Reference, found in ./etc/viperCard.dvi
+    
+This startup message appears whenever you load Viper, unless you type `y' now."

+
+Technically speaking, Viper is a new Vi emulator that replaces
+the old VIP package.
+
+Viper emulates Vi much better than VIP.  It also significantly
+extends and improves upon Vi in many useful ways.
+
+Although many VIP settings in your ~/.vip are compatible with Viper,
+you may have to change some of them. Please refer to the documentation,
+which can be obtained by executing
+
+:help
+
+when Viper is in Vi state.

+
+Don't report compilation warnings, unless you are certain that there is a
+problem. These warnings are normal and unavoidable.
+
+Please note that users should not modify variables and keymaps other than
+those advertised in the manual. Such `customization' is likely to crash
+Viper, as it would any other improperly customized Emacs package.
+
+If you are reporting an error message received while executing one of the
+Viper commands, type:
+
+    M-x set-variable <Return> debug-on-error <Return> t <Return>
+	
+Then reproduce the error. The above command will cause Emacs to produce a
+back trace of the execution that leads to the error. Please include this
+trace in your bug report.
+
+If you believe that one of Viper's commands goes into an infinite loop
+\(e.g., Emacs freezes\), type:
+
+    M-x set-variable <Return> debug-on-quit <Return> t <Return>
+	
+Then reproduce the problem. Wait for a few seconds, then type C-g to abort
+the current command. Include the resulting back trace in the bug report.

-It is also a VI Plan for Emacs Rescue and a venomous VI PERil.
-
-Technically speaking, Viper is a Vi emulation package for GNU Emacs 19 and
-XEmacs 19.  It supports virtually all of Vi and Ex functionality, extending
-and improving upon much of it.
-
-   1. Viper supports Vi at several levels. Level 1 is the closest to Vi,
-      level 5 provides the most flexibility to depart from many Vi conventions.
-      
-      You will be asked to specify your user level in a following screen.
-   
-      If you select user level 1 then the keys ^X, ^C, ^Z, and ^G will behave
-      as in VI, to smooth transition to Viper for the beginners. However, to
-      use Emacs productively, you are advised to reach user level 3 or higher. 
-      
-      If your user level is 2 or higher, ^X and ^C will invoke Emacs
-      functions,as usual in Emacs; ^Z will toggle vi/emacs modes, and 
-      ^G will be the usual Emacs's keyboard-quit (something like ^C in VI).
-   
-   2. Vi exit functions (e.g., :wq, ZZ) work on INDIVIDUAL files -- they
-      do not cause Emacs to quit, except at user level 1 (a novice).
-   3. ^X^C EXITS EMACS.
-   4. Viper supports multiple undo: `u' will undo. Typing `.' will repeat
-      undo. Another `u' changes direction.
-   
-   6. Emacs Meta functions are invoked by typing `C-\\' or `\\ ESC'.
-      On a window system, the best way is to use the Meta-key.
-   7. Try \\[keyboard-quit] and \\[abort-recursive-edit] repeatedly,if
-      something funny happens. This would abort the current editing command. 
-      
-You can get more information on Viper by:
-
-   a. Typing `:help' in Vi state
-   b. Printing Viper manual, found in ./etc/viper.dvi
-   c. Printing ViperCard, the Quick Reference, found in ./etc/viperCard.dvi
-

-      ;; dabbrev-expand.

- 1 -- BEGINNER: Almost all Emacs features are suppressed.
-          Feels almost like straight Vi. File name completion and
-          command history in the minibuffer are thrown in as a bonus. 
-          To use Emacs productively, you must reach level 3 or higher.
- 2 -- MASTER: C-c now has its standard Emacs meaning in Vi command state,
-	  so most Emacs commands can be used when Viper is in Vi state.

-PLEASE FOLLOW THESE PROCEDURES
-------------------------------
-
-Before reporting a bug, please verify that it is related to Viper, and is
-not cause by other packages you are using.
-
-Don't report compilation warnings, unless you are certain that there is a
-problem. These warnings are normal and unavoidable.
-
-Please note that users should not modify variables and keymaps other than
-those advertised in the manual. Such `customization' is likely to crash
-Viper, as it would any other improperly customized Emacs package.
-
-If you are reporting an error message received while executing one of the
-Viper commands, type:
-
-    M-x set-variable <Return> debug-on-error <Return> t <Return>
-	
-Then reproduce the error. The above command will cause Emacs to produce a
-back trace of the execution that leads to the error. Please include this
-trace in your bug report.
-
-If you believe that one of Viper's commands goes into an infinite loop
-\(e.g., Emacs freezes\), type:
-
-    M-x set-variable <Return> debug-on-quit <Return> t <Return>
-	
-Then reproduce the problem. Wait for a few seconds, then type C-g to abort
-the current command. Include the resulting back trace in the bug report.
