  So I'm still having a problem with `export EDITOR="code -w"`, though it's no 
longer returning `FileNotFoundError`. Rather, it says `ERROR: [Errno 2] No such 
file or directory: 'code -w'`. When I remove the `-w` flag, it opens a blank 
tab in VSCode with a name like `tmp******.wiki` where the stars appear to be 
random characters, and proceeds along with the pwb script as if I had saved the 
file with no changes. I think it's because pywikibot can't handle this variable 
having a space and/or flag. I accept that VS Code may never work with 
pywikibot. Would you consider having the option of checking a different envt 
variable first before EDITOR, so I could do something like `export 
PWB_EDITOR=nano` so I don't have to change my default editor for every single 
application on my machine?
