+ Use fcrontab -u systab -e to edit the system crontab and change the defaults.
+
+ By default fcron uses vi as an editor for your crontab. If you want to use another editor
+ you can define it in /etc/fcron/fcron.conf. If for some odd reason you want to uninstall
+ vi and recompile fcron, you need to edit the PKGBUILD and pass
+ --with-editor=<pathtoyoureditor> to configure.
+
+ By default fcron uses /usr/sbin/sendmail (as in the packages providing smtp-sever, such as
+ exim and postfix) to send mails about your cron jobs. If there is no /usr/sbin/sendmail you
+ won't get mails. If you want to use a MTA with a different path you can define it
+ /etc/fcron/fcron.conf.
