[PATCH 2/1] execve: only smart people should use vim

[Steven Rostedt]

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

To keep people from getting stuck in vim and not knowing how to exit it.
Make running vim a bit more complex.

They can go back and use emacs, of course that will fail too, but then
they have something to work on.
