gedit issues
I hope it is ok to post this here since I am having a small list of issues with Gedit altely and the fine ppl at ubuntu forums have had little advice to help.
1. Is there a way to arrange the external tools so that when I go to view them under the tools/external_
2. Is there a way to select the current line using keyboard shortcuts? Actually current line and current paragraph would be a boon, but I have had no luck searching for this capability.
3. I have loaded many 3rd party plugins which I can not enable under edit/preference
It is with sad to say that out of that list the only plugin I can enable is the multi_edit plugin.
what could I be overlooking here? Any ideas?
4. when invoking/opening the terminal tab in the bottom pane is there a way to have the terminal automatically sync with the pwd of the document that is open? and if I switch tabs is it asking too much to have the terminal cd to that dir? it is annoying that the built in terminal would not (er does not seem to--very likely could be user error here!) cd to the path of the open doc. I find it easier as it stands to just invoke a separate terminal window using keyboard shortcuts from within gedit and having it open to the pwd of the current doc. however, I am often working with 3 or 4 or 9 docs at once and opening multiple terminals gives me a headache...one smart built in terminal that tracks to the path of the current doc would be sweet! too sweet I wonder?
I think other than that Gedit rawks the house. I use it daily for writing reports and editing html. I love the customability and hope some of these issues are plain old user error and things I am overlooking and you all can help me overcome.
cheers
