在Ubuntu的Oracle Sql中，如何打开编辑器来编写PL / SQL？

Question

Unlike windows writing the command

ED "name.sql"

editor is not opened here.

Like in windows writing the command ED "name.sql" , notepad opens. How can I do it in Ubuntu?I have installed SQL* plus in ubuntu.

Answer 1

you would have a vim/vi editor in ubuntu. Enter the below line in your SQL* plus session.

define _editor='vim'

Now, when you do

ED name.sql

It will launch the vim editor.

To save the editor settings permanently, edit the file $ORACLE_HOME/sqlplus/admin/glogin.sql and add the line

define _editor='vim'
