Upon playing with "stevie" it seems that it doesn't actually support
"open mode", but "elvis" (another vi clone) does. For elvis, you can
do the same thing:
bash$ elvis myfile.txt
:open
or you can specify that you want to use open mode at the command-line:
bash$ elvis -G open myfile.txt
which you can alias with
alias evi='elvis -G open'
to make it easier.
