As of lately I have been rigorously trying out almost every text editor I can get my hands on.Among them I tried to install Komodo edit based on the instructions from http://usefulubuntu.blogspot.com/201...-on-natty.html
Everything works out fine but there one thing I haven't been able to do,launch the application.Apparently the app won't show on the menu and I don't know any other way to launch it.
I do install Komodo Edit to my debian lenny: I do start run ./install.sh terminal show message: ./install.sh: line 48: ./INSTALLDIR/lib/python/bin/python: don't run binaries file.
What I do for fix it?
I downloaded the Komodo Edit 5 program for wysiwyg web edits, unpacked the tar ball and installed. However, I cannot find it using the Menu Updating tool.

View 3 Replies View RelatedBack in the good old days of Gnome it was easy to know what commands were executed when an icon was clicked. By editing the application menus one could navigate the tree and check it at each application properties window. The question is: how can that be made with Unity?
Knowing the commands executed for LibreOffice applications, for instance, would be very useful, so I can create shortcuts with XBindKeys. Another thing that one could configure at the application properties window was the icon.

Right-clicking on the bar gives only Applications and System as editable menus. I would like to remove some items from the places menu and add others of my own liking
What I am trying to do is edit the link target to force ip=xxxx.xxx.xxx string at end. I have a software program which access 4 different servers running the software but with different configs. In xp I can copy links and modify as above to correctly force the program to the various servers.
I have read the various how tos on hard vs sym links which I get. Playing around with hardlinks and sysmlinks (the examples I find) does not seem to be what I need. Feel like this is pretty basic stuff but I am a bit stumped.
Im trying to control my works server from home (due to the snow) and need to edit part of my monte carlo code so need Xforwarding turned on, have tried to edit /ect/ssh/ssh_config to this effect but Im being told I do not have the permission to save the editted file... I am the only user on the computer and this is a pretty much fresh copy of Ubuntu (using 9.04 instead of 9.10 due to networking issues on my laptop, didnt want to risk it on my desktop)

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to edit a C++ source file, but gedit wont allow me to save changes to it. Gedit says:
Code:
A file with the same name already exists. Please use a different name.
Right. Of course the file exists, I am trying to edit an existing file.
About the same happens with kate... Kate opens the file in read-only mode.
However, if I edit the same file with nano, editing and saving works. So the problem shouldn't be with access rights. Also "ls" shows rw rights to the file.
What could be the problem? I can use nano, but I would need the syntax highlightind, and other features of a better editor.
And whether I use sudo or not has no effect. The same happens with or without sudo, and I am the owner of the file.
PS. luckily I am still dual booting with Hardy. I can always go back.
Oh and this is a new installation of ubuntu 10.04

View 4 Replies View RelatedWhen I want to edit a line in vim, I type the : followed by a number to go to that line. So for example ":8" would go to line 8. I was wondering if there was a way to omit the : character, so I would only have to type 8 and it would go to 8.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm a xubuntu 10.04 user and i recently tried to create a keyboard shortcut to launch the Terminal. I went into Settings -> Xfce Settings Manager -> keyboard
I chose the "application shortcut" tab and there I realized that the "add" function behaves very strangely.
A window pops upp with a text entry that lets me add a command name, but nothing to enter the shortcut's name. Anyhow, whatever I write in there, the window closes when I enter OK and nothing more happens.
I also tried to change the shortcuts from the Window Manager and nothing can be edited there either.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have lots of files I need to put in my /var/www/ folder (Apache http server). I thought I understood how to edit it:For single files: sudo cp file /var/www/For opening files: sudo gedit /var/www/fileBut I can't use the above for a thousand files, and I really can't afford the learning curve of BASH scripting at this time. So if there a way I can do this the GUI way (drag and drop and all that) without having to add myself in the group permissions for the /var/www/ folder?

I have a question - what's the best way to edit the contents of an .iso image ?Yes, I know how to mount it and navigate through files and folders. But it's read-only. Mounting with "rw" option also doesn't help.I've heard about 1) mounting, 2) coping everything to a separate directory 3) editing some files, 4) making a new .iso image
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm currently learning about linux systems and all but,I installed Ubuntu onto a partition (2nd) and it worked.After that when I tried to boot it would just boot without showing the GRUB menu.This is because 1.I messed up Windows boot files 2.GRUB needs some tuning.
I would like to ask how to configure the grub.cfg in Ubuntu since when is earched they were only thread for GRUB legacy...
I'd like you to know that I'm completely new to ubuntu. Just install it a couple of days ago. I have a bit problem with startup here, everytime I change anything in System > Preferences > Startup Applications it just keep coming back to default. I unchecked Penmount Utility, and it's checked again after next boot. Same thing happen when I add Guake Terminal. When I reboot, it's not there anymore. So basically, it seems that I can't configure my startup programs.
