I think the did it for me, its more than just a colon. After many years of exclusive vimming, I use nano for all prose that I type, so the following is a very useful addition to my config and re-sourcing to the defaults in .muttrc at the end is also cool. macro compose v 'set editor="~/bin/mutt_edit_vim":source ~/.muttrc' macro compose n 'set editor="~/bin/mutt_edit_nano":source ~/.muttrc' ciao Eric PS Kudos to vim for introducing serialised undo tree - totally cool.
