The number is only important inasmuch as it sets the order the files will be |
| 13 |
read. Normally, this is not an issue but you can use it to override an earlier |
| 14 |
setting by putting the correct one in a file starting with a higher number. |

If EDITOR is being reset and you can't find it, it's probably being done in |
| 17 |
~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile |

"grep ~" and "grep /etc" are your friends |
