Setting EDITOR

[Lindsay Patten]

How can one set up one's EDITOR variable to pick the right emacs version
even in the face of scripts which set their own paths?  Previously, I set
my path so that I got the right one but now some scripts set their own path
and I end up getting the wrong emacs.  What is the best way of setting this
variable?

Thanks,
