$CURV_EDITOR not defined #26

Closed Cdriko closed 6 years ago

Cdriko commented 6 years ago

Hello I discover curv with a lot of pleasure, in ubuntu 16.04, but I fail to launch it in livemode I got

$ curv -le

-e specified but $CURV_EDITOR not defined
Use curv --help for help.

I tried to set the CURV_EDITOR=gedit

but the result is the same. I've installed glslViewer, but not much better result.

any idea?

This should now be fixed. There were two bugs here.

  1. The CURV_EDITOR variable now has a default value, so you should no longer get this error message, or worry about setting it. Curv now defaults to using the "gedit" text editor.
  2. "curv -le" should fail with a "missing filename" error. Previously, the error message was wrong. That bug is now fixed.

To use curv, type curv -le foo.curv, where foo.curv is some file name. The file name must be specified, even if the file doesn't exist yet.
