OLCR only partially pays attention to the -editor flag.

olcr> se -editor vi
...vi starts, I edit file and exit...
What now? (type '?' for options): e
...emacs starts ...

Presumably emacs starts, since emacs is my EDITOR.

However, when -editor is specified, EDITOR should be ignored until the
comand is done.  Vi should have started, not emacs!
