The default text editor of GNOME desktop environment<\/a> is ‘gedit<\/a>‘. I prefer ViM<\/a> because it has much better functionality and customizability, and moreover, it launches faster. One thing I’ve been missing from GViM, a GUI version of ViM, was tabbed editing. GViM already supports tabbed editing, but opening a text file from Nautilus File Manager<\/a> always creates a new window by default.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, I finally found out how to change this behavior. Nautilus stores its file association information in ~\/.local\/share\/applications<\/tt> directory. You can put customized .desktop<\/tt> files there, and then you can associate certain file type to the customized .desktop<\/tt> file. In my case, I want text files to be opened in a new tab of the current GViM window. I put gvim-usercustom.desktop<\/tt> file to ~\/.local\/share\/applications<\/tt> directory:<\/p>\n

\nIf you prefer other text editor and want to change its default bahavior, you could copy its .desktop<\/tt> file from \/usr\/share\/applications\/<\/tt> and rename it to <appname>-usercustom.desktop<\/tt> and tweak it a little bit.
