a key to jump back to the terminal again instead of interacting with it

In Yazi, you can return to the terminal/shell in multiple ways:

  1. When exiting Yazi, change the cwd to the path when you exited. See https://yazi-rs.github.io/docs/usage/quick-start#changing-working-directory-when-exiting-yazi
  2. Without exiting Yazi, open a new shell within Yazi and return to Yazi whenever you are done with your operations. See #177 (comment)
  3. Press C-z to pause Yazi and return to the terminal; after completing your operation, use fg to return to Yazi again. See #120

how can I change the $Editor or add another program i'd like to use

See https://yazi-rs.github.io/docs/usage/configuration/yazi#opener
