pico is easy, ctrl + x will quit without saving changes,you need to type ctrl + o to write out, then ctrl + x to exit. With vi you type i to enter insert mode, when done hit the escape key, then : enter, then w enter, then q to quit...hope this helps... Sherif D Mohamad wrote: This is a vi e

Re: cron job save

With all do respect, you really need to get some info on how to use vi. This is the default editor for most every for of UNIX. Yes you can switch editors, yes there are more friendly editors, but not understanding basic vi is going to hamper any further learning of Linux. Go get a good book on

Re: Cron job

Hi, By default you end up in the vi editor. It is the clasic unix text editor. I use an editor called joe but that is not installed by default on rh. Pico is installed and that is easyer to use than vi for me. before you say crontab -e, first do: export EDITOR=pico and enter. then do crontab -e and
