redit — Edit rfiles


\begin{rail}
Redit : 'redit' '(' String ( ',' String )? ')' ;
\end{rail}
The redit function is a simple way to edit an rfile, and to then have it automatically reloaded upon exiting the editor. The first argument specified the name of the rfile to be editted, including the .r extension. The optional second string specifies the editor to use. The default editor is vi(1)[*] $\Longrightarrow$ This is not an built-in function. This function is normally loaded on start-up from the redit.r file in the standard rlib directory. Use of the -r option, incorrectly setting the RLAB_LIB_DIR environmental variable, or modifying redit.r may make this function unavailable.
