I don't know if it gets executed in the right order. Are you using |
| 12 |
baselayout 2? The items you mentioned are EDITOR and PAGER. For the |
| 13 |
official way of changing global settings, see... |
| 14 |
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=2&chap=5&style=printable |
| 15 |
for examples. In my case... |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
waltdnes@d531 ~ $ cat /etc/env.d/99editor |
| 18 |
EDITOR="/usr/bin/vim" |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
In your case, I would suggest creating a file called /etc/env.d/99pager |
| 21 |
containing the line... |
| 22 |
PAGER="/usr/bin/most" |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Note that the files are sourced by name in your current locale sort |
| 25 |
order. In just about every locale numbers should sort properly, which |
| 26 |
would start at 00blahblahblah and go through 99blahblahblah. |
