Subject: How to edit crontab using emacs over ssh
Date: Wed, 05 Nov 2008 22:14:56 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1225894496.7259.7.camel@lirh-laptop> (raw)

I'm in shell mode, logged in on another machine over ssh, and I want to
do some 'crontab -e' editing on that machine. But that will bring up a
new editor, which is whatever you set in your EDITOR env variable, and
both vi and emacs cannot be used in this dumb shell. How can I edit the
crontab in my emacs session?
