Editing Transmission plugin via command line

[grfirst]

Hello,

I've been reading this tutorial and have slowly progressed, but now I'm stuck. The instructions say to:

• Next go to your jails tab again and enter into the Transmission Command-Line Shell:
• Type: edit /usr/pbi/transmission-amd64/etc/transmission/home/settings.json and just change the field unmask to "unmask = 0". Once finished, hit esc, leave, and save the changes.

Then there''s an example in a screenshot like below:

My problem is when I follow the exact instructs and type in that line, all I see is below:

I've been back and forth at least 50 times and can't figure what it is I'm doing wrong.

Please help!

There's no reason to edit umask in the settings.json file directly anymore. And doing so will be reset regardless.

The latest version of the transmission plugin has a "permission" setting, which sets the corresponding umask setting for you.
