Hi,

I installed Gentoo from the latest LiveCD today.

I emerged app-misc/mc-4.7.0.3.

I expected that mcedit will be listed in

Code:

mygentoo ~ # eselect editor list
Available targets for the EDITOR variable:
[1] /bin/nano *
[ ] (free form)

but it doesn't. The program itself is working fine... Do I need to refresh/regenerate a list/register something manually?

Thanks.

/usr/share/eselect/modules/editor.eselect:

...
EDITOR_LIST="/bin/nano
/bin/ed
/usr/bin/emacs
/usr/bin/ex
/usr/bin/vi
/usr/bin/xemacs
/usr/bin/zile"
...

You should be able to set it to mcedit using the freeform entry.

Code:

# eselect editor set `which mcedit`
