Vi Improved in FreeBSD
The base FreeBSD system include Vi editor which might not be as good as its improved version called Vim. There is lite version editors/vim-lite which doesn’t have any extra dependencies. It can be installed using the binary package:
pkg install vim-lite
I would also recommend to configure some settings to make Vim more comfortable. You can either edit the system wide configuration in /usr/local/share/vim/vimrc or the personal one in ~/.vimrc:
set nocompatible
set backspace=indent,eol,start
