Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Who's bright idea was it to change the default editor for root in 2.2 to 'ee'? vi is standard on every unix system i've come across, if I want to use a different editor I set the EDITOR environment variable myself. Why was this change made to /root/.cshrc? -Brandon Gillespie
