How can I choose the editor used in bulkrename?

[amano-kenji]

Although EDITOR is helix, yazi bulkrename uses neovim. Why?

[amano-kenji]

I just read the codebase, and bulkrename doesn't use EDITOR environment variable. It uses the first opener available for bulk.txt with text/plain mime type.

I think the documentation for rename is outdated.

No, the doc is correct; Yazi's default text opener is $EDITOR:

yazi/yazi-config/preset/yazi.toml

Lines 32 to 34 in 0645176

	[opener]
	edit = [
	{ run = '${EDITOR:-vi} "$@"', desc = "$EDITOR", block = true, for = "unix" },
