无法在 Zsh 中拥有类似 Bash 的 Cxe

Question

I found the following command in Bash which Zsh does not have in the same buttons at the thread .

Ctrl-x-e

It opens the current input in terminal to an editor.

How can you have the same command in Zsh?

Answer 1

I'm using it with VIM mode. Basically ESC-v (or simply v if already in command mode) opens the terminal. It is setup by:

autoload -U edit-command-line
zle -N edit-command-line
bindkey -M vicmd v edit-command-line

Here is how to setup it in emacs mode:

autoload edit-command-line
zle -N edit-command-line
bindkey '^Xe' edit-command-line

Use 'bindkey -e' to to enable emacs style or 'bindkey -v' to enable vi style.

If you are using Sublime as your editor then make sure you have -w option added in .zshrc or .bashrc file, otherwise it may won't work.

export EDITOR='subl -w'
