minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink4•edit-22 years agoI wish I could just edit text files as sudo with the default gnome text editor instead.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink9•2 years agoDoes ’sudo gedit’ not work? Disclaimer: I use neither gnome nor gedit.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink5•2 years ago Does ’sudo gedit’ not work? If my memory doesn’t fail me it used to. But gedit isnt the default text editor anymore. The new one is quite cool and clean. It doesnt work with sudo though sadly. It’s not the biggest problem tho, just a small annoyance, using the occasional sudo nano to edit files isnt a big deal.
minus-squareSaltyIceteaMakerlinkfedilink2•2 years agoI heard that it is safer to do sudoedit [file] instead of sudo [editor] [file]. At least it’s like this in vim. Idk about nano and Emacs tho
