Is there a Gedit plugin that shows an overview map of the current file at the right side to help scroll through the text? I am using Gedit 3.38.1 in Ubuntu 21.04. Here is an example of the overview map in VisualStudio Code. Does Gedit have something similar?

I recently installed Ubuntu 20.04. Everything works fine.  I wanted to customize gedit, but I was surprised that the minimap option is not available anymore.  How to get it back? OS: Ubuntu 20.04   Gnome Version: 3.36.2   Windowing System: X11 gedit version: 3.36.2

Say I want to redefine the itemize environment, or make a modified version of it. I want to know how it is currently defined. Where do I find this information? If it's some particular package command, I can just look at the .sty file for that package, but if it's something more basic, I don't know where to look...  Is there a reference manual of where all this stuff is explained? Or is there a file in the depths of my texmf tree I should poke around in?

I started using Sublime Text 2 a week or so ago and I loved it so much I've spent $60 on it and now want to use it for everything.  Gedit currently has ownership of most of the text file associations. I'd essentially like to replace any association to gedit with sublime-text-2.  Any tips available on bulk association changing? Desktop-neutral methods are preferred.

Via command line, I have a log file I'd like to keep track of.  What I want is to have, basically, a tail that refreshes when the log is updated making the text scroll upwards as new lines are appended to the log file.  Is there anything out there that does that without having to write some code?

I have an unsaved document opened in gedit on Xubuntu 13.10. A bug caused gedit's main window to disappear and only the title bar is still visible, reading "Untitled Document 1".  Is there a way to recover the typed text from the running but defunct session of gedit? Are "Untitled Documents" stored somewhere temporarily?

When I type man bash it shows the info in the terminal itself.  How do I tell "man" to open up the info in gedit instead? Is this possible?

How can I navigate folders and subfolders at the same time?  Like "column view" in Mac OS X.    Edit 2: I use Ubuntu 14.04 and I couldn't install Marlin, so I installed "Pantheon File Manager" instead.

While trying to make vim default instead of gedit, I found this could be done two ways:  Use defaults.list and make text/plain (and others) point to vim.desktop (what is the format for creating .desktop files?)  Use update-alternatives and change gnome-text-editor (right now it has only one alternative, so I guess I have to install one more. How to do that?)  and which is the better way to do it?

I'm having the strangest issue since updating to OS X El Capitan. My "Open File" dialogs show the sidebar but all my main (and useful) locations are missing. Take a look at this screenshot. This screenshot shows Keychain Access but this happens in Safari when I'm trying to attach a file to Gmail for example, or uploading an image to Facebook.  What I would like is for the sidebar to show my home directories, such as Desktop, Documents, Downloads, etc.  Help?

Since I am a regular Stack Overflow follower, I came across this and was shocked a bit regarding the design and user experience perspective.  Attaching picture 1 - it states that I can click any site and view a synopsis about it. Clear!!!    Attaching Picture 2 - you can see that when I clicked Webmasters, the design wants me to scroll horizontally to view all information and basically it hides information.    It would be nice, if it did something like below :

I am unable to see what I type in the Gedit editor using dark theme.  This is due to the default setting of highlighting the current line.

I created a shortcut via "make link" option. When I enter to this shortcut's folder I can't see any folders above it so I can't easily navigate to them.  Is there a way to go one folder up in the GUI? Maybe a hotkey? (Can't do cd .. this time ^__^ ).      In Windows for example I am indeed able to navigate in the way I describe, here is a Win10 image that explains it:

Ever since installing Bless Hex Editor, all unknown files and text files automatically open with Bless instead of gedit. How do I change it back? I don't want to have to manually associate files with gedit, I just want gedit to be the default if there's no other application set up to open the file.  Solution: modify ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list  [Default Applications]  - text/plain=bless.desktop - application/octet-stream=bless.desktop + application/octet-stream=gedit.desktop

I need to present some text along with the items(about 15 values) for each of two Bash list(file) records.  On the same screen  I need to present a three way selection, (buttons, scrolled selection window, etc.).  I'm an Ubuntu(11.04) scripting noob just beginning to use Zenity in scripts. My friends suggested YAD.    Can I do all of that in YAD or use some other easy GUI tool unknown to us?  .

I was trying to find how to pass some text to a file without overwriting what's there already using the > command and I realised I don't know what it's called. Searching for right arrow or right chevron or more than command didn't show up anything. I've always just called it pass to.

In the  of the SE Data Dump found on  the contents of each site's 7-Zip file is documented.  The fact that the tags.xml is available isn't reflected in the readme.txt.  Please add the following before - **votes**.xml:      - **tags**.xml        - Id        - TagName        - Count        - ExcerptPostId - if an Excerpt is created        - WikiPostId - if an Wiki is created   I've also noticed that at least the PostHistoryTypeId field contain values that more closely match with what is described in  but I only verified that for the posthistory.xml of one site so I'm not 100% sure if I'm correct on that one.   Can the readme.txt be refreshed to depict the current expected content?
