I think that it’s a bug that it doesn’t exist by default ;-) Both Korn shells originate on real Unix systems where it does. Anyway, changing the FCEDIT default is a huge no-go, especially for script compatibility, but users can be encouraged to use a different editor (if people really demand this, I could imagine setting one in /etc/skel/.mkshrc for Debian specifically). bye, //mirabilos -- <igli> exceptions: a truly awful implementation of quite a nice idea. <igli> just about the worst way you could do something like that, afaic. <igli> it's like anti-design. <mirabilos> that too… may I quote you on that? <igli> sure, tho i doubt anyone will listen ;)
