There are two classes of solution

(1) those that are built into the packages, and

(2) those which each end user (or their admin) must take care of

Your suggestion within (2) is appreciated, and can be copied and implemented by 
myself and every other Mac user who would use GNUmed, however I was thinking a 
solution of class (1) might be helpful. Even a Mac package in which all shell 
scripts undergo global replacement of

        editor

to one of

        nano
        open -a TextEdit

is possible however would spawn the need for another tree of packages.

What if I provided a script to reside inside each of

        gnumed-client.version/external-tools
        gnumed-server/external-tools <--- this would need creating

such as

        modify-for-mac-os.sh

??
