Only if you want to change it for every user on your system and you have root. I'd leave editor set to something users would find relatively unsurprising (which unfortunately probably means Emacs...mmm, bloat), but set $EDITOR and $VISUAL to my personal preference (in this case, vim). -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.mit.edu/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
