DO240-45: oc edit launches "gedit" instead of vim and it fails to save

      Workaround: Temporarily "export EDITOR=nano" or something else than "gedit".

      Description: Since the default editor is now "gedit", less experienced students will happily accept that.

      However, and that is a very common scenario, if they are currently editing a file (many do, to keep various recently used commands, tokens, user-keys, URLs, etc. in the same place), "oc edit svc" will open a new tab in that same "gedit" instance, and the editor will then fail to save it correctly for the "oc edit" command to pick the change up.
