Allow ESC-e to invoke the sequence "g|$$EDITOR -"

[rfagen]

While wandering the internet, I saw an interesting workaround to being able to edit STDIN while using less.

I would like to propose adding an ESC-e command (which doesn't appear to be in use as of version 458) to stuff the keyboard with the sequence: g|$$EDITOR -

Or, maybe even: g|$${VISUAL:-$EDITOR} - which I'm amazed I was able to get correct the first time I typed it...

This would work only when the editor supports editing stdin, and uses the "-" syntax to do it. Since this is not universal (for example, my version of emacs does not support it), it's probably not appropriate for a general release. However you can get the same effect by putting this line in your lesskey file:
\ee goto-line |$${VISUAL:-$EDITOR} -\n

Ah! Cool. TIL -- there's a lesskey file

Thank you, by the way for so much less :)
