Solve : vi and crypt?

Answer»

I have some files which were encrypted using an OLD version
of vi -- vi -X myfile.enc

These files do not decrypt using the vi / vim package that I
just installed under Ubuntu Linux / netbook edition.

The files PROPERLY decrypt with crypt < myfile.enc > myfile

It APPEARS that the newer version of vi uses a different
encryption algorithm than the old. Is there a switch or a
different version of vi that will properly decrypt the files?
