I am running FreeBSD 2.0.5. I am trying to set pico as the default editor for the vipw command. Pico is in the path and can be executed from the shell prompt. I have the following lines in the root users .profile EDITOR=pico export EDITOR This does not work. Could someone tell my the correct syntax and file to edit to add environment variables to FreeBSD.
