True, but both call $EDITOR here. > Be careful. Nano is hardcoded in sudo's ebuild. Yes, as a default when no other editor is specified. That means no $EDITOR variable visible to visudo and no default specified in /etc/sudoers. It does NOT mean that visudo is hard coded to use nano, merely that the Gentoo devs have set the fallback to something they know will be on a default Gentoo install. That seems a sensible decision to me. -- Neil Bothwick Why is the word abbreviation so long?
