In the configuration dialog there is the option to use the internal editor. Make sure that option is not selected.
On Debian systems you should get prompted for which editor to use by the select-editor script. In my case I chose vim.basic. This avoids tinkering with mc's config files directly which can only be done if all instances of mc are closed. - Nate -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds.
