Line 44

B<visudo> does not honor the C<VISUAL> or C<EDITOR> environment

variables unless they contain an editor in the aforementioned editors

list. However, if B<visudo> is configured with the I<--with-enveditor>

flag or the I<env_editor> C<Default> variable is set in I<sudoers>,

option or the I<env_editor> C<Default> variable is set in I<sudoers>,

B<visudo> will use any the editor defines by C<VISUAL> or C<EDITOR>.

execute any program they wish simply by setting C<VISUAL> or C<EDITOR>.

Line 89
