crontab -e not opening correct editor

Open your .bashrc file and add the line export EDITOR=vim or do;

echo 'export EDITOR=vim' >> ~/.bashrc

Then logout and back in or source .bashrc


If this doesn't work, try adding it to .bash_profile or do;

echo 'export EDITOR=vim' >> ~/.bash_profile

and then again, logout and back in or do source .bash_profile


NOTE: We can test using echo $EDITOR

I think on is fine for when at the console and the other for remote sessions, maybe...
