You know, I tried to use that, just to learn vi, but typing M-x vip-mode gets
the following error:
Symbol's function definition is void: iconify-or-deiconify-frame

Similarily, typing M-x load-library RET viper RET gets this error:
Symbol's function definition is void: iconify-or-deiconify-frame

Does anyone know whether this is usual or unusual?  At first I thought I might
have messed up something in my _emacs file, but starting emacs with the
--no-init-file switch doesn't get rid of the errors.
