gedit  is  an  easy-to-use  and  general-purpose  text  editor.  Its  development started in 1998, at the
       beginnings of the GNOME project, with a good integration with that desktop environment.

       You can use it to write simple notes and documents, or you can enable more  advanced  features  that  are
       useful for software development.

       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".

       -geditwillreadfromstdin+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.
