REDRUM

If you remember "The Shinning", the first time you saw the bloody word REDRUM you probably thinked "What the Hell is that?" Well, then you know that you need a little help from a looking-glass to make sense of it. Now it's time to use vim like a mirror to reveal the message.

Start file
nac uoy ro ,rorrim a ni siht daer ot evah uoy ,redrum eht hctac ot tnaw uoy fI
); miV esu

.omodrojam eht ...si redrum ehT
End file
If you want to catch the murder, you have to read this in a mirror, or you can
use Vim ;)

The murder is... the majordomo.
