<DIV>If you aren't new to vi you must know arrow keys do their job only outside
INSERT mode (use ESC).</DIV>
<DIV>If you just want to use arrows key codes in your file, try (in INSERT mode)
control-v, followed by the key you want (this shoud provide you with *any*
"special" key code you want to insert into your file - e.g. function keys)</DIV>
