For example, to pipe the output of an ls command to a text file, type ls | gedit, then press Return. The output of the ls command is displayed in a new text file in the gedit window. ---------- That functionality does not currently work in gedit 2.24.3 on either of my installed Fedora 10 systems (i386, x86_64). Near as I can tell, it hasn't worked anytime recently. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.24.3-3.fc10.x86_64 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. run "ls | gedit" 2. 3. Actual results: Empty "Unsaved Document 1" Expected results: "Unsaved Document 1" (or another title?) containing the output of the 'ls' command Additional info: Either the stdin-to-new-document functionality should be fixed, or the documentation should be adjusted to omit description of this nonfeature.

That seems to imply it's not a simple fix; I don't know why they don't just remove the feature from the documentation. External bug reference added.

Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 10. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '10'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.

Thank you for tracking this. That work will roll into Fedora at some point in the near future, so I'm going to close this report out. Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/9054/comments/41 ** Changed in: gedit (Fedora) Status: Unknown => Won't Fix ** Changed in: gedit (Fedora) Importance: Unknown => Low -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gedit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/9054 Title: gedit does not read from a pipe Status in gedit: Fix Released Status in gedit package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in gedit package in Fedora: Won't Fix Bug description: The GNOME text editor, gedit, has a cool and documented feature (by documented I mean they tell about it in the man page) which allows it to read input from a pipe. For example 'ls -lR | gedit' allows one to open a new buffer in gedit and populate it with the output of 'ls -lR'. This does not seem to work in Ubuntu, and thus breaks some of my working habits. Would it be possible to enable this feature in future releases ? http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=121891: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=121891 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gedit/+bug/9054/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
