*Doesn't support column.
$ npm install open-editor
const openEditor = require('open-editor');
openEditor([
'unicorn.js:5:3',
{

column: 2
}
]);
Open the given files in the user's editor at specific line and column if supported by the editor. It does not wait for the editor to start or quit.
Type: Array<string | object>
Items should be in the format foo.js:1:5
or {file: 'foo.js', line: 1: column: 5}
.
Type: object
Type: string
Default: Auto-detected
Name, command, or binary path of the editor.
Only use this option if you really have to. Can be useful if you want to force a specific editor or implement your own auto-detection.
Same as openEditor()
, but returns an object with the binary name, arguments, and a flag indicating whether the editor runs in the terminal.
Example: {binary: 'subl', arguments: ['foo.js:1:5'], isTerminalEditor: false}
Can be useful if you want to handle opening the files yourself.
