Also, is there any way for EDITOR to be dynamic, so that when I am on the
actual machine I want to use mate as my editor, but if I am over ssh, I
want to use a terminal based editor. Is that just a matter of wrapping the
default in a condition that checks where I am at?
I would also be interested in knowing how to set that up. I've wanted this
many times but never really looked into what I would need to do.
If you always use ssh for remote logins then you can test for the
existence of the SSH_CLIENT environment variable. It doesn't exist when
you're logged in locally.
