I tried to use vim on FreeBSD (via ssh on Linux xterm-compatible terminal). However vim behaves similar to vi out-of-box. For example it does not react on delete key, insert F character instead of going up while on insert mode etc.

On FreeBSD X11 is not installed.

**Edit**: As asked I post `vim --version`

```
# vim --version
