Environment variable not found about joshuto HOT 4 CLOSED

Thanks!

I fixed the issu by following your advice; i put this in my sway config:

bindsym $alt+Control+a exec dunstify -r 333 "File Manager" && export EDITOR=vim && foot -e joshuto

and now it works.
I missed the "export" of the variable.
Thanks again!

bulk_rename uses the EDITOR environment variable to determine what editor to use.

You may need to set this environment variable in your script for it to work.

Pardon my noobish, doubt, but I set this environment variable in my .bashrc

# Default apps

export BROWSER='firefox'
export VISUAL=vim
export EDITOR=vim

and in my sway config

# SET $mod key on SUPER
set $alt Mod1
set $mod Mod4
set $EDITOR vim
set $TERMINAL alacritty

but nothing changes, I cannot figure where I am to add the environment variable...

Plus, i do not understand whi this issue occur only when I start joshuto from sway with a shortcut
Thanks for your time and support

You can try debugging it by changing foot -e joshuto

to foot -e path/to/a/script

inside the script:

#!/bin/bash

echo "EDITOR: $EDITOR"

and see if it prints anything.
If it does, then you can use this script to launch joshuto.
If not, then export it in the script

#!/bin/bash

echo "EDITOR: $EDITOR"

export EDITOR=vim
