.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B vitmp
|
|
.RI [ "VIM options" "] " FILE ...
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B vitmp
|
|
is a wrapper around the VIM editor which may be used to invoke the
|
|
editor in a way that is guaranteed to be suitable for editing temporary
|
|
files used with programs such as
|
|
.BR crontab (1)
|
|
and
|
|
.BR edquota (8).
|
|
The instance of the editor that is invoked is
|
|
.IR /bin/vi .
|
|
.PP
|
|
In particular, it is guaranteed that the file, if edited, will be
|
|
overwritten in place such that the modified contents may be read back
|
|
via a previously obtained file descriptor. Invoking the editor via
|
|
.B vitmp
|
|
also makes sure that no additional editor temporary files are used.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Please note that
|
|
.B vitmp
|
|
offers no crash recovery capabilities. If the editor crashes during
|
|
the overwrite, data may be lost.
