I really doubt that! /bin/sh should be a symbolic link (symlink) to either /bin/bash or /bin/dash (depending on the release you are using). > relevant in it. As for /usr/bin/sh, I don't have such a file or > directory Of course, /bin/sh is needed for the basic operation of your OS, it couldn't reside on /usr (which is often a separate partition mounted later on). Try putting this in ~/.bashrc: export EDITOR=/usr/bin/vim Regards, Andrei -- Offtopic discussions among Debian users and developers: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/d-community-offtopic
