While it probably doesn't make any difference on a single user
system, you should get in the habit of using vigr instead of vi for
editing the group file, and vipw for editing the passwd file. This
helps insures that only one program at a time modifies the files.
Also, if you have set EDITOR, they will use the editor of your choice.

I use joe because I learned Wordstar years ago and it is thus
simple. And vi and all the variations are hard for me to remember. So
can I set joe as my EDITOR? Sounds like a bash call...
