title: Restoring VIM to default state
body: <p>I'm really frustrated with getting going using VIM. I'm just trying to do some minor customizations to the vimrc file. I made some minor changes, but they didn't do what I had hoped. So, I went back in and removed the lines that I had added, reverting back to my original file. Now, I can't even get into VIM! When I type "vim filename.xxx" from the terminal, I just go right back to a command prompt. No error message, no file opens, nothing. It's as if I just hit the enter key.</p>
  
  <p>I tried uninstalling and reinstalling VIM, but same results. Does anyone know what I can do to get VIM back to its original state? I'm using Ubuntu 11.</p>
