Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Default editor for Embedded Python Block

[Barry Duggan]

Hi,

Thank you for that. It works file type by file type. I had already tried 
setting an environment variable (EDITOR=), and doing the 
update-alternatives, but neither seemed to work.

For the record, the procedure (for Debian) is:

to change default editor:
* open File Manager
* single right click a file of type .py
* left click on 'Properties'
* click on the pull down for 'Open with:'
* click on the editor of your choice
* click OK

It can be done as well for other file types such as .txt, .cpp, etc.

As always, thanks for your help!
