--- title: 'dav edit' --- **`dav edit [-pc] [-k <key>] [-V <version>] [-L <lock>] <url>`** Downloads a resources and opens an editor. If there is no resource at the specified location, it is attempted to create a fresh resource. The resource is downloaded to a temporary file and re-uploaded only if you save any changes to that file. The default editor `vi` can be changed with the `EDITOR` environment variable. This command transparently handles decryption and encryption. If you download and open a plain text file and request content encryption (either by config or by command line option) the file will be re-uploaded with content encryption. However, a present file will keep its (plain text) file name in any case. **`-p`** disable file name encryption and decryption **`-c`** enable file name and content encryption **`-k <key>`** use the specified key for encryption. The key must be configured in the config.xml file **`-V <version>`** downloads a specific version of the resource. Available versions can be listed with the *list-versions* command **`-L <lock>`** use a lock token. See [dav lock][1] [1]: ./lock.html
