Hi,

I'm programming a small command-line application and want to open up
an external editor, and hand back control to node after the user exits
the editor. Tried opening up vi with child_process.exec and .spawn but
that did not quite do what I expected.

  1 var exec = require("child_process").exec;
  2
  3 var child = exec("vi /tmp/test", function(error, stdout, stderr) {
  4   console.log("and we're back...");
  5 });


Any thoughts?


Antoine
