No editor set! Please set LEO_EDITOR

[bpursley]

The following message is popping up:

No editor set! Please set LEO_EDITOR or EDITOR environment variable,
or do g.app.db['LEO_EDITOR'] = 'gvim'

I am not interested in vim or EKR bindings, and these are the only
editors specifically mentioned in the documentation. Yet, on a search
through the documentation, I kept finding vague references to an
ability to specify "several" editors.

Where can I find documentation on setting an editor other than vim or
EKR?

These mean the external editor. Let's say you want to use "scite".

Put this text in a node and execute it w/ ctrl+b:

g.app.db['LEO_EDITOR'] = 'scite'

Now, you'll see scite in right click menu.

After making sure that I had scite installed on my ubuntu
installation, I followed your instructions which resulted in the
following error:

no script selected

OK, so I typed 'hello' in the body pane and selected it and repeated
the ctrl+b on the header resulting in the following error:

exception executing script
NameError: name 'hello' is not defined
--------------------
line 2: #@+node:g.app.db['LEO_EDITOR'] = 'scite'
* line 3: hello
line 4: #@nonl
line 5: #@-node:g.app.db['LEO_EDITOR'] = 'scite'

What am I missing?

Put it to body, not headline. Headline is ignored by ctrl+b

Thank you, I now see scite in right click menu. Now that I "get" it, I
have begun testing with multiple editors.
