vitmp

VITMP(1)						      General Commands Manual							  VITMP(1)

NAME

       vitmp - edit temporary files

SYNOPSIS

       vitmp [VIM options] FILE...

DESCRIPTION

       vitmp is a wrapper around the VIM editor which may be used to invoke the editor in a way that is guaranteed to be suitable for editing tem-
       porary files used with programs such as crontab(1) and edquota(8).  The instance of the editor that is invoked is /bin/vi.

       In particular, it is guaranteed that the file, if edited, will be overwritten in place such that the modified contents may be read back via
       a previously obtained file descriptor.  Invoking the editor via vitmp also makes sure that no additional editor temporary files are used.

       Please note that vitmp offers no crash recovery capabilities.  If the editor crashes during the overwrite, data may be lost.

HISTORY

       vitmp first appeared in Openwall GNU/*/Linux 1.0.
