How to change the default editor for opening the file?

[abhiche]

After selecting a file, when I press :e, the file gets opened in vim.
I am currently using helix editor.
How to open the file in helix?

Add export EDITOR=hx in your .zshrc/.bashrc/.profile.

Or override this key binding in your custom init.lua.

I am getting the below error now when trying to open a file.

ERROR: process exited with code exit status: 101

~ ENV | grep EDITOR
EDITOR=hx
~ hx --version
helix 22.08.1 (66276ce6)
~ xplr --version
xplr 0.20.0

If you're using mac, I believe you're running into #449.

The current solution is to use a custom build of helix.
