Overview

Edit a configuration. By default, a Tk GUI will be opened if "Config::Model::TkUI" is installed. You can choose another user interface with the "-ui" option:

•

"tk": provides a Tk graphical interface (If "Config::Model::TkUI" is installed).

•

"curses": provides a curses user interface (If Config::Model::CursesUI is installed).

•

"shell": provides a shell like interface. See Config::Model::TermUI for details. This is equivalent to running "cme shell" command.

Options

See "Global Options" in cme.

Options

-open-item

Open a specific item of the configuration when opening the editor. Trying to open a non-existing item triggers an error.
