I use vim from base (vi), mostly because their buffers don't behave the same way. With vi I can copy and paste using middle click between my laptop and my server through ssh in urxvt out-of-the-box, with vim I have to change some configuration options.

And anyway, I don't need the extra bloat added by --with-features=big --with-x=yes.
