Just set "EDITOR" in your environment (export EDITOR='nano -w', say)
before you run Compile. You may want to add it to your .zshrc (and
root's) so you don't have to do it every time.

When you've done that, please run PackRecipe again before you submit
it to the list (so you can fill in the description and other details).
There is nothing else wrong with the recipe.
