Hint: crontab -e will edit the crontab entries for the current user (using vi). If you are root then crontab -e will edit root's entries. If you are another user then only that user's entries will be shown.
Similarly, crontab -l will list the cron jobs for the current user.
The editor used can be changed:
EDITOR=/usr/bin/mcedit
and then all utilities like the above, vigr, vipw, visudo... will use mcedit instead.
