By default (when
$EDITOR
is not set), thebeet config -e
command will try to use OS X'sopen
command to edit the config file on that platform. Unfortunately, that command doesn't work when the file does not exist—when setting up beets for the first time, for example.We may need to run
touch
first to create the file, and then useopen -t
to get the default text editor.Background in a mailing-list thread:
