> And there’s no “favorite”/“default” binding in terminal. There is. There is the EDITOR environment variable and the alternatives editor. They will be used when a program triggers an interaction that uses a text editor (e.g., mutt, git and more) instead of manually opening an editor yourself. There are also distributions that only ship with a minimal set of editors, forcing you to install different ones. This might also be considered a "default" editor by lots of people. edit: if you consider a "default binding" only one for manually opening a text file, then you are right, but I don't think that is what people talk about when referencing a "default text editor"
