The best text editor is ‘$EDITOR’.
I think you mean “$EDITOR”. Gotta have that variable expansion.
Not necessarily! I always run
ln -s '/usr/bin/$EDITOR' $(which $EDITOR)after a fresh install, so I have a valid executable on the path called$EDITOR.Of course, then I have to make sure to add
export EDITOR=\$EDITORto my.bashrc. (Obviously.)Well,.that’s one way to solve the problem of not expanding your editor var correctly…
