[SLE] [SHELL] LS and $EDITOR *2nd try

19 Apr 2001

      Ok, I finally have some time to work on my Linux system:

1) I added export EDITOR=joe to /etc/profile.local, but when I enter
   edit at the shell, I happen to enter vi again. Solution? And how can
   I give options to joe when starting via this alias? is the joerc the
   correct way or have I to change the whole alias?

2) I set some aliases like alias $='ls -alX', and now I am experiencing
   that I do not get what I wanted. I would like the appearance of the
   LS output to be like with doscmd=/o:gen, that is directories sorted
   in a-z order FIRST, then the a-z sorted FILES.

   Any thoughts?
