Invoking %edit with or without filename results in an error:

CL-USER> %edit

the installation is 

cl-repl 0.6.4 on Roswell 22.12.14.113, SBCL 2.3.1

using Mac OS.

Ah, just found that it is not the problem with the file provided, but with the env var EDITOR not being set. Maybe the check could provide a better error message? Please feel free to close the issue, I just leave it open for your attention.
