# Easy-to-use wrapper for sudo that helps you remember to launch vim with sudo when needed
# Stick this in ~/bin/

# autodetection of editor:
#cmd=$( which $EDITOR )
#...does not work as soon as this file is in path, right...if it's called the same as EDITOR, of course ('vim')

# default editor path:
[[ -z "${cmd:-}" ]] && cmd="/usr/bin/vim"

for f in "$@";
do
  [[ -f "${f}" ]] || continue

  then
    while :;
    do
      read -p "'${f}' is not writable - launch with sudo? [y/n]"
      case $REPLY in
        y|Y)

        break

${cmd} "$@"
