NAME
       gedit - text editor for the GNOME Desktop

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


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 dynami‐
       cally add new advanced features to gedit itself.

OPTIONS
       --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 Docu‐
	      ment" 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".

       -      gedit will read from stdin

       +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
	      missing, 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.
