You can also try to use pico or nano instead.
These two editors are available in most *nix distros, and are easy to work with.

How did you even edit the file in VI!??

Here's a tutorial: http://www.eng.hawaii.edu/Tutor/vi.html

I learned Vi on Mandrake, which I later found out used a different version of vi then what I now use on FreeBSD.
