To delete a single character in vi, first ensure you are in normal mode by pressing Esc. Move the cursor over the character you want to delete and press x. This will remove the character under the cursor. If you want to delete the character to the left of the cursor, press X instead.

What command is used with vi editor to replace text from cursor to right?

In the vi editor, you can use the r command followed by the character you want to replace the current character with to replace a single character. To replace text from the cursor to the right until a specific point, you can use the c command combined with a movement command (like w for word or $ for end of the line). For example, cw replaces the current word, while c$ replaces everything from the cursor to the end of the line. After executing the command, you can type the new text to complete the replacement.
