Yes, dd will also work; and I agree that its easier to type.
I'm afraid that I've looked over the OP's first two messages and don't
see where vim was launched, though:
Title: Bash's vi command line editing mode
Excerpt: ...but when I do the "set -o vi" in the bash command line shell,...
Excerpt: ...if I hit <Esc> and v on the command line, it goes into vi
editing mode...
Excerpt: ...when I exit the editor it runs the command... (when one
exits Vim, typically it doesn't cause any commands to run)
