DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #43 from Guy Geens <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>   (2 matched vim 
config)
:
Wondering how to SELECT YOUR DEFAULT TEXT EDITOR?  You can set
your prefered editor with:
        update-alternatives --config editor
Also it helps to set your EDITOR environment variable:
        export EDITOR=`which vim`
