Changine Default Linux Editor

 

 

For example, have you ever been frustrated about using nano or pico instead of a real editor inside crontab?

Wait no longer!

Find the .bashrc or default shell and add this line to it:

export EDITOR=/usr/bin/vi
 
Exit out of the shell and come back and it should work perfectly!
 
Peace Out
