You need to set the EDITOR environmental variable in your shell.
ex:
csh% setenv EDITOR pico
Or course, use the environmental setting commands for your favorite shell.

No, I actually use bash. I figured since he didn't know about the EDITOR
variable that he also didn't change the default shell.
At work we use IRIX system almost exclusively. The default shell is csh,
and they also do not come with bash or zsh. Everyone here (including
myself) use tcsh. I have to write my shell scripts in csh just so
everyone else can run them. Have you ever read the article "csh
programming consider harmful"? I tried to distriubute at work, but they
just didn't care.
