I believe the arrows are not legal keys in vi. They do sometimes work.
You should become accustomed to the "proper" use of vi in command mode
to move the cursor around. The keys to do this are j for down, k for
up, h for left and l for right. The reason why this is the case is
because not all keyboards have arrow keys, so to use them wouldn't be
portable.
