Usage

alpine edit <instance> [<instance>...]

Aliases

Details

The editor is determined by the $EDITOR environment variable. If it's not set, macpine falls back to vim or nano if available.

After saving and closing the file, macpine performs basic validation on the configuration. If the validation fails, your changes will be reverted. For changes to take effect on a running machine, you must restart it using alpine restart <instance>.
