Re: [feature request] Add ".sh" or ".bash" extension to tmpfile generated by `fc`

[Martin D Kealey]

In 2024 an editor having such a simplistic approach counts as a bug.

But perhaps adding a variable would allow anyone to nominate their own
favourite, such as as BASHFC_TMPNAM=/tmp/bash-fc.$$.XXXXXX.sh

Alternatively, perhaps an extra line could be inserted at the start of the
b file, like « #!fc-edit/bash »
