Easy to see - open any .desktop or .desktop type file in gedit from a terminal (for Ex.
I need to simulate the behavior of the keyboard shortcut (ALT+F4) using Terminal for a given application.
If I open for example gedit and click ALT + F4 , then GEDIT will be xkilled.
If I want to achieve same thing using Terminal, how should I proceed?
The following command (in order to kill gedit process) works fine:

Is there any way or plug-in that supports opening pdf file directly in gedit from file browser?
gedit seems open everything inside it as a source file rather than recognize the software to open the file.

This has been bugging the heck out of me. I have slack64 13.1 and I'm running gnome after installing GSB. The only problem I'm having right now is getting it to save my preferences. Ex.

$ gedit app/file.rb
bash opens that file with gedit but it is tied up.
How can I make my earlier command equivalent to $ gedit app/file.rb & by default.
If it helps here is a copy of my .bashrc file from the 10.04 OS : http://pastie.org/4687219
I can't use the scroll wheel in gedit. the scroll up or down events now have the same effect as right clicking. I'm not sure what happened. I never messed with any settings. this happened while gedit was open. restarting gedit has no effect, rebooting has no effect, pluggin in a different mouse has no effect, and it's not a problem in any other application.
I'm using Ubuntu 12.04.
I use Xfce-panel with it's task list plugin. When an aplication opens a dialog and a swith to another window, then I can't return to it.To reproduce it: open gedit, press CONTROL+F to open the "Find" dialog. Now switch to another aplication leaving the Find dialog opened in gedit.
