  Yes.  Set the environment variable EDITOR as desired.  If you like
  emacs:

	$ EDITOR=emacs; export EDITOR			# sh, ksh, bash
  	% setenv EDITOR emacs				# csh, tcsh.

  Alternatively, you can add:

	set editor emacs

  to ~/.nn/init.

  If you need to pass arguments to your editor, create a script which
  contains your editor and desired arguments.  For example:

	#!/bin/sh
	/local/all/emacs -nw ${1+"$@"}

  Then set your EDITOR or editor variables, as above, to this script.
