[vox-tech] Vim is leaving junk on my command line

When you save a file in vi (vim), it normally gives you 2 lines of output
(above) the command line.  1st line has something to do with the position of
your cursor (or maybe the number of chars changed), the next line says
<filename>: written.

The "en" of "written" gets printed on my command line

ps i'm using putty as my ssh client
