in my .ini file the editor is set like this
[DISPLAY]
DISPLAY = axis
EDITOR = gedit
I want to use vi, so I did this as suggested in the both the users manual and integrators manual.
EDITOR=gnome-terminal -e vim
When I try to edit a .ngc file using the pull down commands, vi starts but it does not open the current file like it does when the EDITOR is set to gedit.
I tried adding $@ as in a shell script, but that didn't make any difference.
Is there anyway to make it open the active file?
thanks
chuck
