Using Debian 5.0 (Lenny)...I can't find where SHELLOPTS is being set by default. I've checked:

  • ~/.bashrc
  • ~/.profile
  • ~/.bash_profile (doesn't exist)
  • /etc/bash.bashrc
  • /etc/profile

... nowhere to be found. The issue is I want to change emacs to vim in editor style field. Anyone know where I can find/set this?

Have you tried 'export EDITOR=vim' in .bashrc? – MrStatic Feb 2 '10 at 15:00
Yep, and that also works, thanks! – AJ. Feb 2 '10 at 15:46

It has some default settings. Just add:

set -o vi

to your ~/.bashrc file.
