NAME

       select-editor - select your default sensible-editor from all installed editors

SYNOPSIS

       select-editor

DESCRIPTION

       select-editor provides a coherent mechanism for selecting and storing a preferred sensible-editor on a per-user basis.  It lists the avail-
       able editors on a system and interactively prompts the user to select one.  The results are stored as SELECTED_EDITOR  in  ~/.selected_edi-
       tor, which is sourced and used by sensible-editor.  SELECTED_EDITOR is overridden by the VISUAL and EDITOR environment variables.
