http://ubuntuforums.org – Hi all, First post. Using Ubuntu for over a year now. Like it a LOT! :D I was using 10.04 32-bit (with gedit 2) then switched to 12.04 32-bit (with gedit 3). I use gedit for writing HTML and CSS. There is a plugin (gedit-plugins) called "snippets" which helps me a lot. It has an auto-complete function which provides an option to choose a predefined value from a pop-up. Here is a quote from the documentation i found: https://live.gnome.org/Gedit/Plugins/Snippets 1 - Simple placeholders "...The default value van also be a list by encapsulating it in [] and separating valu (Hardware)

I just ran into a problem with the snippets plugin of gedit 3.4.1 running on Ubuntu 12.04. The problem is that the snippets plugin stops working (i. e., doesn't react to keyboard shortcuts and tab-completion) when a file has an encoding other than UTF-8, e. g. ISO-8859-1.

vim/gvim teething issues 39 weeks 3 days ago

I am trying to make the change from long-time gedit user to vim, er gvim and having some teething problems I hope are just that.

two of the great things about gedit I find indispensable is the snippets and ext tools plugins. Discovered UltiSnips plugin for vim and it is ok, far from ideal.

Gedit is the default text editor in Gnome based GNU/Linux distributions such as Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Fedora etc. It looks simple and it’s easy to use but it is also very powerful. It’s not just for simple text files – you can use it as a programming editor.

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 with python 2.7.3 and PyGObject and I'd like to develop plugins for Gedit in python. I found a simple looking tutorial for this sort of thing here.

According to the tutorial, I need the Gedit module to interact with the plugin interface:

from gi.repository import GObject, Gedit

I keep getting an import error when trying to import the Gedit module.

The first thing you should always do after installing software (apart from viewing the manpages) is to check and see if it supports plugins. If you are not a programmer or hacker it really is the easiest way to extend capabilities. The Gnome text editor supports this feature out of the box.Here's three of the best.

Gedit is a text editor. The Gedit homepage list its full feature set..

I am trying to compile the gedit plugins with gedit 2.16.0 and RHEL 5.7 (arch: i386). I downloaded the package and followed the instruction in README:

The error output: checking for GEDIT...

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04.

How to start my first-ever forum question? It's so intimidating!

Well, that's as good a way as any, I suppose.

For the life of me, I can't get the SuperCollider plugin to appear in gedit. When I use synaptic, everything loads well EXCEPT the supercollider-gedit option, which turns red when I click it ("Could not apply changes!
