Description
When your environmental variable $EDITOR is not mapped, and you use the following command "nikola new_post -e", you currently get the following error message:
"$EDITOR not set, cannot edit the post. Please do it manually."
As a user, I was a little confused by this. The first sentence sent me searching for a Nikola setting where I can set the preferred editor. The second sentence had me contemplating if I needed to edit the "setting" within Nikola manually or the post I just made. These were first thoughts when I read the message.
I thought, perhaps, you might use this proposed message so to be a bit more explicit. I tried to keep the words to a minimum while still being as clear as possible.
"$EDITOR not set within the operating system, cannot edit the post with '-e'. Post must be altered manually."
I'm hopeful this might prove valuable to some users in the future.
