Then set EDITOR=<path_to_vim> If you want to cheat and only use 'vi' then you need to walk the dependency chain and/or search_for_binary mechanism employed by the SHELL to find the correct target. You can of course set this as 'system-wide global' or down in your login shell, or in sub-shell scope. It is NOT the application packager's job to do your homework for you, or to hijack the process because some percentage of people prefer it a certain way.
