[ILUG] VIM Command

[Conor Mac Aoidh]

Hi,

This is my first time sending an ilug email. I am pretty much a complete
newbe to linux. I just had a question as to using the VIM command. I am
trying to use this to create a new file in a new directory. It keeps
returning the error "E212: Can't open file for writing" and after googleing
the error it turns out that I do not have enough privilages to do what I
want to do. I am logged in as root. Does anyone know how I can get the
privileges that I need? Or can anyone recommend another method of achieving
what I want do do - as i'm not sure if VIM should even be used for this
purpose!

Thanks
