i don't understand this change. it fixes up only one directory in your whole
world: $HOME.  why hack acme for one directory?

instead, i'd write a trivial shell script called dotfiles or whatever
you want to
call it that just fixes up the display of the directory in which it's executed.
either that or have a file in $HOME that contains the Edit command to fix
it up. open that and run.

but to change the source of the editor for this???
