opening vim with a flag: ready to write?

[Gary Kline]

hi y'all:)

i am making steady progress in learning gtk.  i'll spare the list my
usual rambling and get rt to the point.

is the a way of starting off vim or gvim and be able to type into
the editor _without_ first typing:

	a,i,o,O,I,A, or any other character?

or is this just one more thing to include in my brief tutorial?

tia,

gary
