note that there is also E. E (and B) are documented in sam(1) :

  B is a shell-level command that causes an instance of sam [or acme]
  running on the same terminal to load the named files. [...]

  E is a shell-level command that can be used as $EDITOR in a
  Unix environment. It runs B on file and then does not exit
  until file is changed, which is taken as a signal that file
  is done being edited.
