+Vi      "the original".  Without further remarks this is the version
+        of Vi that appeared in Sun OS 4.x.  ":version" returns
+        "Version 3.7, 6/7/85".  Source code only available with a license.

+Nvi     The "New" Vi.  The version of Vi that comes with BSD 4.4 and FreeBSD.
+        Very good compatibility with the original Vi, with a few extensions.
+        The version used is 1.79.  ":version" returns "Version 1.79
+        (10/23/96)".  Source code is freely available.

+Elvis   Another Vi clone, made by Steve Kirkendall.  Very compact but isn't
+        as flexible as Vim.  Source code is freely available.
