NAME

       medit - text editor

SYNOPSIS

       medit [OPTION]... [FILES]

DESCRIPTION

       medit is a text editor.

OPTIONS

       -n, --new-app
	      run  new	instance  of  medit. By default medit opens FILES (or creates a new document if none are given) in an existing instance of
	      application

       -s, --use-session[=yes|no]
	      load and save session. By default medit does it when -n is not used.  If this option is not given on command line  then  medit  uses
	      the corresponding preferences setting.

       --pid PID
	      use existing instance with process id PID.

       --app-name NAME
	      use  instance name NAME. If an instance with this name is already running, then it will send files given on the command line to that
	      instance and exit.

       -e, --encoding ENCODING
	      use provided character encoding to open the file

       -l, --line LINE
	      open file and position cursor on line LINE. Alternatively line number may be specified with filename, e.g.  medit foo.txt:12

       -r, --reload
	      automatically reload opened file if it was modified on disk by another program.

       -w, --new-window
	      open file in a new window.

       -t, --new-tab
	      open file in a new tab.

       --log-file FILE
	      write debug output into FILE. This option is only useful on Windows.

       --log-window
	      show debug output in a log window. This option is only useful on Windows.

       --debug DOMAINS
	      enable debug output for DOMAINS (if medit was compiled with --enable-debug option).

       --geometry WIDTHxHEIGHT

       --geometry WIDTHxHEIGHT+X+Y
	      default window size and position.

       -h, --help
	      show summary of options.

       -v, --version
	      show program version.

       FILES  list of files to open. Filenames may include line numbers after colon, e.g. /tmp/file.txt:200. Trailing colon is ignored.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       MEDIT_PID
	      if set, it is used as --pid argument. When medit spawns a process (e.g. a DVI viewer) it sets MEDIT_PID to its own  process  id,	so
	      the child process may in turn simply use 'medit filename' to open a file (e.g. for inverse DVI search).

NAME

       gedit - text editor for the GNOME Desktop

SYNOPSIS

       gedit [OPTION...] [FILE...] [+LINE[:COLUMN]]

DESCRIPTION

       gedit is the official text editor of the GNOME desktop environment.

       While  aiming  at simplicity and ease of use, gedit is a powerful general purpose text editor.  It can be used to create and edit all kinds
       of text files.

       gedit features a flexible plugin system which can be used to dynamically add new advanced features to gedit itself.

OPTIONS

       -b, --background
	      Run gedit in the background.

       --encoding
	      Set the character encoding to be used for opening the files listed on the command line.

       -g, --geometry=GEOMETRY
	      Set the X geometry window size (WIDTHxHEIGHT+X+Y).

       --list-encodings
	      Display list of possible values for the encoding option and exit.

       --new-window
	      Create a new toplevel window in an existing instance of gedit.

       --new-document
	      Create a new document in an existing instance of gedit.

       -s, --standalone
	      Run gedit in standalone mode.

       -w, --wait
	      Open files and block the gedit process.

       --help Prints the command line options.

       --version
	      Output version information and exit.

       FILE   Specifies the file to open when gedit starts. If this is not specified, gedit will load a blank  file  with  an  "Unsaved  Document"
	      label. Multiple files can be loaded if they are separated by spaces.  gedit also supports handling of remote files. For example, you
	      can pass	the  location  of  a  webpage  to  gedit  ,  like  "http://www.gnome.org",  or	load  a  file  from  a	FTP  server,  like
	      "ftp://ftp.gnome.org/robots.txt".

       +LINE  For  the first file, go to the line specified by LINE (do not insert a space between the "+" sign and the number).  If LINE is miss-
	      ing, go to the last line.

       COLUMN For the first file, go to the column specified by COLUMN.  If COLUMN is missing, go to the first column.
