A-10 Command Line Reference<br />

The File Editor is an easy-to-use text editor that is available directly<br />

from the Admin Console. The File Editor simplifies the editing<br />

process, enabling you to perform virtually every necessary editing<br />

task from the Admin Console instead <strong>of</strong> command line. The File<br />

Editor also provides some additional conveniences such as unique file<br />

backup and restore features. Refer to “Using the Admin Console File<br />

Editor” on page 2-12 for details.<br />

Note: The <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong> also supports typical UNIX editors for you to use, including vi,<br />

emacs, and pico.<br />

Important: The pico -w parameter disables word wrapping on lines that contain up to<br />

256 characters. If you do not include the -w parameter, pico will insert hard carriage<br />

returns after about the 80th column <strong>of</strong> each line that exceeds 80 columns. This corrupts<br />

certain system files, such as the .conf files. Therefore, when you enter the pico command,<br />

be sure to include the -w parameter. However, be aware that certain files may contain<br />

lines over 256 characters and even using the -w parameter will not prevent word<br />

wrapping.<br />

Changing your default editor<br />

By default, the <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong> uses the vi text editor. However, the<br />

<strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong> also supports the emacs and pico editors.<br />

You can change your default editor by following these steps:<br />

1. Log in at a <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong> command prompt.<br />

2. Open the .cshrc file in an editor and locate the line that reads as follows:<br />

setenv EDITOR editorname<br />
