Because snaps must be self-contained, we actually have to ship the text editors inside the snap... Shipping the full build of vim isn't practical as it's linking against python3, pulling all of python along with it.
So right now the snap includes both vim.tiny and nano, you can choose which you want through the EDITOR env variable. We've also very recently fixed support for .vimrc so if you want to try to configure vim.tiny to be more usable, you can write a vimrc for it in ~/snap/lxd/current/.vimrc Stéphane On Sun, Oct 13, 2019 at 11:13 AM Tomasz Chmielewski <man...@wpkg.org> wrote: > In the last week or two, my lxd servers installed from snap start > "vim.tiny" when I use "lxc config edit $container". > > It used to use vim before (I think - vim.tiny has arrow keys messed up, > and they used to work as expected before). > > How to change the editor to something else, i.e. proper/full vim? > > > Tomasz Chmielewski > _______________________________________________ > lxc-users mailing list > lxc-users@lists.linuxcontainers.org > http://lists.linuxcontainers.org/listinfo/lxc-users > -- Stéphane
