It's "mcedit", not "mc-edit".
# mechanism to find the preferred editor
# Hopefully one of these is installed (no flamewars about preference please!):
-for editor in "$VISUAL" "$EDITOR" nano nvim vim vi emacs pico qe mg jed gedit mc-edit; do
+for editor in "$VISUAL" "$EDITOR" nano nvim vim vi emacs pico qe mg jed gedit mcedit; do
if command -v "$editor" > /dev/null 2>&1; then
exec "$editor" "$@"
fi
* mg
* jed
* gedit
-* mc-edit
+* mcedit
Please don’t complain about the order: If the user has any preference, they will
have $VISUAL or $EDITOR set.
