TELESCOPE: External editor support now available!

Great news the latest commit of Telescope 0.9.1 introduces the feature to call an external editor to type long text message like this one!

Just press CTRL+x and it will open your default editor, it should follow regular Unix settings (BSD families) as well as the common Linux settings.

In distros like Devuan and Debian you can add this line on your ~/.profile dot file.

export EDITOR={YOUR-EDITOR} 

This message has been written with Telescope + Micro editor! ;)

Hi freezr, have you read this article of mine?

=> — Building a static binary for Telescope

Maybe it would be a good idea to consider distributing official static binaries for Telescope. WDYT?

I hope Omar still works on the function to open https links in a configured browser. Otherwise Telescope is already EXCELLENT!
