$EDITOR
because many users reported to me that they couldn't edit files.I found that changing it to
$EDITOR
improved the situation a lot. When users see$EDITOR
, they might wonder if they haven't set it themselves, or at least open the default configuration file to see what$EDITOR
is. :/BTW I also added a FAQ for it haha, https://yazi-rs.github.io/docs/faq#why-cant-edit
