Gedit Review

Softpedia.com has a nice review of the basic gnome Text Editor.

My Fedora 5 just crashed after I updated it last night. I just installed the basic applications, and at this point I realized that software that's part of the daily use of almost anyone was never reviewed.

Such software is Gedit. It's the official text editor for the GNOME desktop environment and almost any ASCII file is opened with it when we use GNOME. It's a big possibility you didn't notice it because the attention was focused on the contents and not at all on the editor. I hope a review will be useful for letting you know what you can do with it.

Shift + Arrow Down and Del

To delete a line mark it and delete it. it's so easy :)

Really: gEdit is an Texteditor for Beginners and Average Users not a gEmacs. If you really need emacs Shortcuts, maybe you can write a plugin for this.
