Handle failure when unable to launch .edit editor #98

Closed jamesls closed 8 years ago

jamesls commented 8 years ago

Fixes #88.

Default editor to vi, not vim. vi is available on more platforms.
When we do fail, display a helpful error message instead of crashing.

New behavior:

$ EDITOR=some-bad-editor aws-shell
aws> .edit
Unable to launch editor: some-bad-editor
You can configure which editor to use by exporting the EDITOR environment variable.
