Re: [libvirt-users] Permanently change default virsh editor
Normally, you can set environment variables in .bashrc or .bash_profile and
if I am not mistaken in /etc, there is alos a bashrc file that is
system-wide, maybehave a look at it.
After changing one of those file execute the following command to update
your current console configuration
source <path/to/file>
exemple:
source ~/.bashrc

This is distribution dependent. For instance, I'm unaware of any
system-wide approach in Fedora (except for what Cole suggested, which
will work everywhere). But for instance in gentoo you can:
# eselect editor set vi
