[Bug 1348899] Re: taskwarrior does not respect EDITOR when using task edit
I don't believe anything has changed in this respect between 2.2.0-3 and 2.3.0+dfsg-2. The code for the latter version looks like this: // Determine correct editor: .taskrc:editor $VISUAL $EDITOR vi std::string editor = context.config.get (editor); char* peditor = getenv (VISUAL); if (editor == peditor) editor = std::string (peditor); peditor = getenv (EDITOR); if (editor == peditor) editor = std::string (peditor); if (editor == ) editor = vi; Perhaps you have editor configured in your taskrc? Or have VISUAL set in your environment? (In 2.3.0+dfsg-3, the fallback editor was changed from vi to editor.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1348899 Title: taskwarrior does not respect EDITOR when using task edit To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/task/+bug/1348899/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

hm. funny. It does seem to work indeed. I wonder what I did wrong. Embarrasing... $ env EDITOR=cowsay /usr/bin/task 1 edit Launching 'cowsay task.21721.1.task' now... sh: 1: cowsay: not found Editing complete.

Interesting. Seems to be a regression then. env TASKDATA=/tmp/tasks EDITOR=cowsay task 1 edit does not do what I expect with the 2.3.0 package: ➜ ~apt-cache policy taskwarrior taskwarrior: Installed: 2.3.0+dfsg-2 Candidate: 2.3.0+dfsg-2 Version table: *** 2.3.0+dfsg-2 0 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ➜ ~ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1348899 Title: taskwarrior does not respect EDITOR when using task edit To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/task/+bug/1348899/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
