Gentoo uses the $EDITOR variable where others may not. You must remember the fcron is probably ran on many different linux's, unixs and whatever else.. So you need a default in the conf for those systems...
and gentoo doesn't require it either... So technically not all gentoo's don't have a $EDITOR variable set. > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > On Wednesday 12 November 2003 09:58 am, Jeffrey Smelser wrote: > | cron always uses the $EDITOR variable first..
