I love MC, and I use it all the time to make changes to files. Now I just installed the new Denian Lenny, and MC on it. Horror.. When I press F4 within MC, NANO opens On Debian Etch it was not like this. MC had a really nice editor in it! Anyone here who might know whats up with this? I realy do not want to use nano!
Run Code: apt-get install vim-nox and then Code: update-alternatives --config editor and select vim-nox: Code: server1:/tmp/dcc-dccproc-1.3.102# update-alternatives --config editor There are 4 alternatives which provide `editor'. Selection Alternative ----------------------------------------------- 1 /bin/ed *+ 2 /bin/nano 3 /usr/bin/vim.tiny 4 /usr/bin/vim.nox Press enter to keep the default[*], or type selection number: <-- 4 Using '/usr/bin/vim.nox' to provide 'editor'. server1:/tmp/dcc-dccproc-1.3.102#
I have 5 options to choose form. Code: There are 5 alternatives which provide `editor'. Selection Alternative ----------------------------------------------- 1 /bin/ed + 2 /bin/nano 3 /usr/bin/vim.tiny * 4 /usr/bin/mcedit-debian 5 /usr/bin/vim.nox It's the /usr/bin/mcedit-debian that I want (and love).
