Gedit is a text editor, but I see no reason to prevent it from opening a binary file even if its garbled and the user cant get anything meaningful from it.
At least it could have a "This is an non-text file, so there is no reason for you to open it. Click "Open anyways" if you want open it anyways". -- Make gedit be able to open any files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234419 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
