From the man page:
STANDARDS
atto is not the standard editor.
Well played, #NetBSD well played... 😂

@ParadeGrotesque@mastodon.sdf.org @netbsd@mastodon.sdf.org It makes a serious point though. The EDITOR environment variable says what should be used by various programs and is unset by default. If not set, it defaults to vi. This is set in various places: https://nxr.netbsd.org/source/search?q=_PATH_VI&project=src This affects common tasks like crontab -e and vipw. The weird thing is that atto is not in pkgsrc, so you can't try it for non-current without manually building it.
