 |
|
Hello all:
I did this when I installed current system:
[code]
eselect editor set vim
eselect vi set vim
eselect visual set vim
[/b]
to set variables in my system.
Recently I was thinking about replacing vim with helix
But none of eselect modules can list out helix
Can we implement this? (I am very willing to do this myself but I am just a Java guy,playing with Spring.....) |

Best to stick to the list given in virtual/editor ebuild, namely:
| Code: |
# Add a package to RDEPEND only if the editor:
# - can edit ordinary text files,
# - works on the console,
# - is a "display" or "visual" editor (e.g., using ncurses).
RDEPEND="|| (
app-editors/nano
app-editors/dav
app-editors/e3
app-editors/ee
app-editors/emacs:*
app-editors/emact
app-editors/ersatz-emacs
app-editors/fe
app-editors/helix
app-editors/jasspa-microemacs
app-editors/jed
app-editors/joe
app-editors/jove
app-editors/kakoune
app-editors/levee
app-editors/lpe

# Packages outside app-editors providing an editor:

Set and export EDITOR variable in your shell profile.
Personally I think eselect tool overcomplicates a simple task. |
