Hi,
because of my limited knowledge
when opening my config.scm file with sudo
I can do it only with nano
But nano doesn’t show the matching parenthesis.
1.
I would like to open my config.scm file with emacs or gedit,
because both show the matching parenthesis.
How can I do that?
.....................................................
2.
In emacs it opens the file only in read-able mode.
How can I change this?
3.
In gedit it is also only in read-able mode.
....................................................
4.
Are there commands on the command line
to open my config.scm file with emacs/gedit in sudo mode?
....................................................
Untile now I opened my config.scm in gedit,
I saw the matching parenthesis
and was playing around with it
but then opening the file with sudo nano /etc/config.scm
I changed the parenthesis.
It would be better to do it in a different way,
but I am not a linux expert.

Kind regards
Gottfried
