How do I configure vi in SliTaz 5.0?

I want to learn using vi, so I'm using it. Didn't expect you can do all those customisations. But on SliTaz, it seems like I can't do any. Syntax highlighting would be nice, but I can do without it (didn't find the right plugin anyway).

What bugs me is that I can't turn on numbers. I think those are rather necessary. SliTaz is my favorite distribution, so I can forgive that, but couldn't it be solved? Pretty please?

By default vi is a link to busybox.

Install the vim package.

# tazpkg get-install vim

Thank you! For me, this enabled Syntax highlighting and numbering! When the question

[c] Do you want vim  for /bin/vi (y/N) ? [/c]

was asked, I didn't do anything, and now I can start it by typing

[c] vim /path/to/document [/c]
