Dear Benjamin,

That would be a workaround. So thank you for it but it doesn't mean that
there is no bug here.

So changing back to new.

Thanks,
Shahar

  Dear Friends,

  According to the man page, sudoedit should respect and use my $EDITOR.

  It doesn't. It always uses nano.

  Thanks and Blessings,
  Shahar
