-e Edits the current crontab using the editor specified by the VISUAL or
EDITOR environment variables.
After you exit from the editor, the modified crontab will be

tested with
export EDITOR=geany
cronttab -e
Then used geany, so should work with vim
Could add export to your bashrc to setup on login
