# Edit the command line using your usual editor.
# Binding this to 'v' in the vi command mode map,
#   autoload edit-command-line
#   zle -N edit-command-line
#   bindkey -M vicmd v edit-command-line
# will give ksh-like behaviour for that key,
# except that it will handle multi-line buffers properly.
