- There is a hard-coded list of editors that v\bvi\bis\bsu\bud\bdo\bo will use set at
- compile-time that may be overridden via the _\be_\bd_\bi_\bt_\bo_\br _\bs_\bu_\bd_\bo_\be_\br_\bs Default
- variable. This list defaults to the path to _\bv_\bi(1) on your system, as
- determined by the _\bc_\bo_\bn_\bf_\bi_\bg_\bu_\br_\be script. Normally, v\bvi\bis\bsu\bud\bdo\bo does not honor
- the VISUAL or EDITOR environment variables unless they contain an
- editor in the aforementioned editors list. However, if v\bvi\bis\bsu\bud\bdo\bo is
- configured with the _\b-_\b-_\bw_\bi_\bt_\bh_\b-_\be_\bn_\bv_\be_\bd_\bi_\bt_\bo_\br option or the _\be_\bn_\bv_\b__\be_\bd_\bi_\bt_\bo_\br Default
- variable is set in _\bs_\bu_\bd_\bo_\be_\br_\bs, v\bvi\bis\bsu\bud\bdo\bo will use any the editor defines by
- VISUAL or EDITOR. Note that this can be a security hole since it
- allows the user to execute any program they wish simply by setting
- VISUAL or EDITOR.
