try on your machine

The command gh config set editor ${vim} is used to set the default text editor for GitHub CLI (Command Line Interface) to Vim.

Here's a breakdown of the command components:

gh config set editor: This is the main command to configure the editor for GitHub CLI.
${vim}: This is a placeholder or variable that represents the value you want to set as the default editor. In this case, the variable is vim, which refers to the Vim text editor.

By running this command, you are setting Vim as the default editor for GitHub CLI. This means that whenever you need to input or edit text within the command line tool, it will open Vim for you to make the changes.
