Corresponding source code
A monotone command which invokes the user's editor on MT/log would be a desirable bit of interface candy for several reasons:
1) Commands are relatively more discoverable than files in the bookkeeping directory; particularly files which do not always exist.
2) 'mtn note' is easier than 'emacs ../../ -- oh wait, is it ../../.., or ../../../..?'
I put forth 'mtn note' for this command, simply because 'note' is what OpenCM used. I don't particularly like this command, but 'log' is already taken and it seems OK.
