+# Open The Current Command In An Editor
+
+If you are working with a complicated command in the terminal trying to get
+the arguments just right. Such as this `curl`:
+
+```bash
+curl https://api.stripe.com/v1/customers \
+   -u sk_test_BQokikJOvBiI2HlWgH4olfQ2: \
+   -d description="Customer for test@example.com" \
+   -d source=tok_189fCz2eZvKYlo2CsGERUNIW
+```
+
+It can be tedious to move to and modify various parts of the command.
+However, by hitting `Ctrl-x Ctrl-e`, the contents of the command buffer
+will be opened into your default editor (i.e. `$EDITOR`). This will make
+editing the command a bit easier. Saving and quitting the editor will put
+the updated command in the command buffer, ready to run.
+
+Hit `Ctrl-x Ctrl-e` with an empty command buffer if you want to start
+crafting a command from scratch or if you are pasting one in from somewhere.
