DESCRIPTION

14       preferred  sensible-editor on a per-user basis.  It lists the available
15       editors on a system and interactively prompts the user to  select  one.
16       The  results are stored as SELECTED_EDITOR variable in ~/.selected_edi‐
17       tor, which  is  sourced  and  used  by  sensible-editor  command.   SE‐
18       LECTED_EDITOR  variable is overridden by the VISUAL and EDITOR environ‐
19       ment variables.
