On the way trying to convince mutt
to use emacs -nw instead of vi by
editing .muttrc as:

set editor=emacs -nw

...which didn't work - I came across
a whole bunch of links related to
emacs:

rland@MINI:~$ ls -l /usr/bin/emacs
lrwxrwxrwx �� 1 root � � root � � � � � 23 Feb 12� 2001 /usr/bin/emacs
-> /etc/a
lternatives/emacs
rland@MINI:~$ ls -l� /etc/alternatives/emacs
lrwxrwxrwx �� 1 root � � root � � � � � 16 Feb 12� 2001
/etc/alternatives/emacs
-> /usr/bin/emacs20
rland@MINI:~$ ls -l� /usr/bin/emacs20
lrwxrwxrwx �� 1 root � � root � � � � � 10 Feb 12� 2001 /usr/bin/emacs20
-> emac
s-20.7
rland@MINI:~$ ls -l /usr/bin/emacsclient
lrwxrwxrwx �� 1 root � � root � � � � � 29 Feb 12� 2001
/usr/bin/emacsclient ->
/etc/alternatives/emacsclient
rland@MINI:~$ ls -l /usr/bin/emacs-20.7
-rwxr-xr-x �� 1 root � � root �� � 2913364 Jun 20� 2000 /usr/bin/emacs-20.7
rland@MINI:~$



What are all these links for? I suppose they
have beeen created by apt-get and no idea why.

How should I set the mutt enviroment variable
$EDITOR to to forget vi and use emacs -nw
instead?
