REQUIRED PARAMETERS

13       editor Name or path of the editor to be  selected.   On  systems  other
14              than Debian derivatives an absolute path is required.
15                 It  is  permissible  to omit this parameter if --state is ab‐
16                 sent.
17

19       state  'present', 'absent', or 'exists'. Defaults to 'present', where:
20
21              present
22                     the sensible-editor is exactly what is specified in --ed‐
23                     itor.
24
25              absent no sensible-editor configuration is present.
26
27              exists the  sensible-editor  will be set to what is specified in
28                     --editor, unless there already is a configuration on  the
29                     target system.

LIMITATIONS

36       This  type  depends upon the sensible-editor(1) script which is part of
37       the sensible-utils package.
38
39       Therefore, the following operating systems are supported:
40
41              • Debian 8 (jessie) or later
42
43              • Devuan
44
45              • Ubuntu 8.10 (intrepid) or later
46
47              • RHEL/CentOS 7 or later (EPEL repo required)
48
49              • Fedora 21 or later
50
51       Note: on old versions of Ubuntu the sensible-* utils are  part  of  the
52       debianutils package.
