  2. Ok (Some pager) if pager is a tool invocation parsed from the EDITOR environment variable that can be found via Os.Cmd.find ?search.
  3. Ok (Some pager) if nano can be found via Os.Cmd.find ?search.
  4. Ok None otherwise.
val edit_files : B00_std.Cmd.t option -> B00_std.Fpath.t list -> (B00_std.Os.Cmd.status, string) result

  • None, an error message is returned mentioning that no editor was found.
  • Some editor invokes the command with files fs and returns the exit status of the program.
