			<div class="content">Aha, ok. I never realized that (Well: i never use visudo, and if yes i use it with vim, save with <img src="images/smilies/icon_mad.gif" alt=":x" title="Mad" />, and that does not show you where it saves it,  so it is clear why i did never realize).<br />As a test i set &quot;update-alternatives --config editor&quot;, ran visudo, made a change, saved with :w (which only saves, shows you where it saves, but does not close), and had the same result: /etc/sudoers.tmp. <br />Still a bit strange behaviour, but ok.</div>
