NAME
vifs -- safely edit fstab

vifs
DESCRIPTION
The vifs utility simply locks the fstab file before invoking an editor on
it. This is important to facilitate the modification of fstab by auto-
mated tools and system management software.
Always use vifs to edit fstab, instead of invoking an editor directly.
