View 2 RepliesOn windows I really only used Notepad++ as my text editor, it had two features that I loved.What I need to accomplish is what I would do with Notepad++ column editor.I could have like 100 lines, and place the cursor at a column, and goto edit>column editor, and I could insert an incrementing number. (I could also pad the incrementing number with 0s, this was GREAT for making batch files among other things.)So each line at that column had a number higher than the previous line.The other feature that I used sometimes was a search/replace with regex patterns.Does anyone know of an editor that has those features for linux? I am mostly after the column editor insert feature but if you know of one with both features that would rock.

View 4 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to open text files in gvim in tabs not opening anothe rgvim window for every text file? Just like it is done in gedit: open a file the open another file and it opens in a tab.
View 2 Replies View Relatedmy idea is to have gvim working like gedit in ubuntu 11.04: when you open a file thru unity's dash, and if there's already an open editor, it opens the file in a new tab.To make nautilus open more than one selected files in gvim's tabs, i used to change the exec line in /usr/share/applications/gvim.desktop to "Exec=gvim -p --remote-tab-silent %F". This trick is working ok in nautilus and also in unity, just like the way I was planning.
However, when i try to open gvim itself without specifying any files (from unity's dash or a launcher set) it fails. Can anyone please help me with this ?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have checked the forums but can't find a topic that covers this. I have an 8Gb Micro SDHC in a micro reader that I installed 10.10 onto from the Alternate DVD. Unfortunately I neglected to set up the swap and home volumes and I now have a stick with all 8GB used up.
I have configured up Ubuntu to my liking and also added some applications. I would prefer not to lose this and I don't appear to be able to adjust the partition table live to now accommodate the swap and home areas.
Is there a way to do it live or can I boot from the DVD again and adjust the one partition to three such as 4 GB root, 2G Swap and 2 Gb Home?
After upgrading Squeeze, Gvim and Vim seems to be broken. So I went back to 7.2 by compiling from source. However I am failing to compile the gui version under Debian. I tried the configure options, apt-get build-dep vim etc but nothing seems to work. Does anyone know a straight way to make it work? Or even a way to find the previous version of vim gtk?

I'm new to vim and gvim, but I feel its power so I want to learn it. I've been searching very long how to use gvim keyboard shortcuts but I simply cannot find out what is for example the vertical splitting command '^Wv'? I've tried (ctrl/super+ a lot of things) (and other combinations, but without success).

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy exaile tag editor lost after upgrading to Ubuntu 9.10. I had been using 9.04. My exaile used to have a tag editor which allows me to edit tags for multiple files simultaneously, and fill tags by patterns of file names. I used to highlight songs in the playlist, and then right click, there would show "Information" and when I click on it, it's the tag editor.After the upgrade, I am not sure if I am missing some plugins or whatever, the tag editor is no long here. Now, I only see "Properties" when I right click, which only allows me to edit one song at a time.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm working with an older PC that belongs to my parents. They've been using Ubuntu 8.04 with no problems, and with 10.4s release, I planned to upgrade them to the newest version. The system's specs are as follows:
1.5ghz Athlon XP CPU
1.5gb RAM (PC 2700)
20gb hdd (IDE)
I have tried both the Ubuntu 9.10 (two different discs) and a 10.4 install CD and both give me the same issue. The installation proceeds along swimmingly until partitioning comes up. The partition table simply shows no hard drives. I have heard of this issue occurring with SATA drives and motherboard settings, but what could make it happen to an old IDE drive? Any odd-ball motherboard settings or anything that might need to be changed? GParted and the Live disc (along with the currently installed version of Ubuntu) recognize drives and can navigate them. What gives?
I was wondering what will happen if I cancel a partition half way through? I am using Ubuntu 8.10 (yes, I know it's outdated) and I am trying to install Windows XP alongside. Turns out GParted is trying to take about 16 hours to complete what I told it to do; shrink the Ubuntu partition to make room for Windows. I have a slight time constraint, and would rather not spend this 16 hours. If I cancel the partitioner right now and completely wipe the disk, will there be any permanent damage to the disk?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a minor problem with gvim. My gvim never maximizes. Whenever I try to maxmize it automatically shrinks from right side and bottom. Don't know if anyone else faces this problem, but I have faced this even after re-installing the system It is not a show stopper but surely an irritant.
I am using openSUSE 11.2, KDE 4.3.5.
I use a terminal with white text on black background (I just like it better), so I wrote the following line in my .vimrc file: set background=dark
However, gvim has black on white text. How do I do either of the following: Set the background of gvim to black Check in .vimrc if I'm using gvim I tried this: I started up gvim, and typed echo &term. The answer was "builtin_gui". So I wrote the following into .vimrc:
if &term == "builtin_gui"
set background=light
else
set background=dark
endif
Somehow, it didn't work.
I'm using SSH (with -X specified) from a Ubuntu box to a RHEL4 box and running GVim. It opens as expected in my local X, but the copy and paste via select doesn't work. I cannot select text in GVim and paste in a local window, nor can I select text from a local window and paste in GVim. This works, however, when I SSH (with -X specified) to a different RHEL4 box. Is there something I need to install on the remote machine? I am running Parcellite 0.9.2 on the local box, but closing it doesn't make the problem go away, and it is not interfering with the other box.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI loved Gnome's Nautilus and FTP integration and being able to mount a remote FTP directory as a regular bookmark/directory, and double clicking any remote files to open in any unmodified program. I also loved editing text files with GVim.
However, if I double clicked file on Nautilus to open a text file in Gvim, then saving a file will take about 10 seconds and GVim will hang for that amount of time. The major irritant is that I cannot continue editing while the text editor is waiting for the write to finish, this delay interrupted my workflow and thought process and saving becomes a painful process. The other problem is that I don't think simply uploading a file should take that much time.
I'm aware of GVim's internal FTP support, but they are not as well integrated with Nautilus's FTP and it suffers from the same problem.
So a few question:
Is there a way to make GVim or GVFS to save in background while I continue editing?
Why is GVFS so slow? Is there any way to set GVFS to use a single persistent FTP connection instead of creating a new FTP connection each time?
I'm on Gentoo Linux x86-64.

View 5 Replies View RelatedIn windows when I install gvim/vim, it automatically installs a context menu in explorer that lets me edit a file in gvim by simply right clicking and pressing v. For someone who edits a lot of files and is really used to vim, it is super-convenient. I want to do the same thing in nautilus. So I installed nautilus-actions and added to the context menu of editing with gvim. That wasn't hard. The hard part is getting that keyboard key to bind to that context menu item. Currently when I right click and press v, it sends the item to trash. I want it such that when I right click a file and press v, it edits the file in gvim. How can I do that? I want a good solution, and am willing to switch file managers/window managers if need be. This particular shortcut key is very important to my user experience.
