Hmmm..... Lemme see here ..... I presently have this :
=====
[btth at localhost btth]$ cat .bashrc
# .bashrc
# User specific aliases and functions
# Source global definitions
if [ -f /etc/bashrc ]; then
. /etc/bashrc
fi
[btth at localhost btth]$
=====
You're saying to do "nano .bashrc" insert the line "export EDITOR=nano"
into it somewhere, and save it?

Ignorance however blithe being of course debatably blissful, does that
mean that a command "visudo" or perhaps "visudo /etc/sudoers" would then
open that file with nano instead of with vi? That would certainly help ....
