Time Narration
00:01 Welcome to the spoken tutorial on Introduction to gedit Text Editor .
00:06 In this tutorial, we will learn about:

gedit Text Editor Installation of gedit in Ubuntu Linux and Windows OS .

00:17 We will also learn how to create a new file, open, save and close an existing file.
00:25 To record this tutorial, I am using: Ubuntu Linux 14.04 operating system, gedit 3.10
00:36 To follow this tutorial, you should have working knowledge of any operating system.
00:42 First we will see how to install gedit Text Editor .
00:47 You can find instructions on how to install gedit Text Editor on Windows , by visiting the link shown.
00:56 gedit Text Editor is pre-installed in Ubuntu Linux OS .
01:02 It can be installed on Ubuntu Linux using Ubuntu Software Centre .
01:08 For more details on Ubuntu Software Centre, refer to the 'Linux' spoken tutorials on our website.
01:15 gedit Text Editor is already preinstalled in my system.
01:20 Now, let us open gedit Text Editor .
01:24 Click Dash Home on the top left corner of the computer desktop.
01:29 In the Search box, type "gedit". The text Editor icon appears. Click on it.
01:37 This will open a new gedit Text Editor window.
01:41 Alternately, you can open Text Editor using the Terminal.
01:47 I will close this window now.
01:50 To open a Terminal , press the CTRL+ALT + T keys together.
01:56 Type gedit and press Enter .
02:00 A new gedit Text Editor window opens.
02:04 The top most bar with all the menus is called the Menu bar .
02:09 Next is the Tool bar which contains the most commonly used menus in icon form.
02:16 The display area is where all activities such as typing, editing take place.
02:23 You can see a tab named Untitled Document 1.
02:28 This is the default name given by gedit Text Editor to the newly opened document.
02:35 In the text area, let us type Welcome to Spoken Tutorial .
02:42 Below this, we will type some more text as shown here.
02:48 Now, in the tab, you can see an asterisk next to the name of the file.
02:54 This means that the file is not yet saved.
02:59 The bottom bar is the Status bar which displays information about the current activity.
03:06 The Status bar displays the cursor position with respect to line number and column number.
03:13 It also displays whether the mode is overwrite or insert.
03:19 By default, it is in INS , that is, insert mode .
03:24 We will learn about the other two later on.
03:28 Now let us see how to save the file.
03:31 For this, click on the File option in the Menu bar and then on Save .
03:37 The Save dialog box opens up. I’ll type the filename as Students.txt .
03:45 Choose the destination where you want to save the file.
03:49 I'll select Desktop .
03:52 Click on the Save button.
03:55 Notice that the saved filename is now displayed in the tab.
04:01 Also, notice that the asterisk has disappeared.
04:06 Now let us close this file.
04:09 Click File in the Menu bar and select Close.
04:14 We can insert new files into the window by clicking File and New .
04:21 Alternately, you can click the icon in the Toolbar with plus sign.
04:27 Now, let us see how to open an existing document.
04:31 Click File in the Menu bar and select Open .
04:36 Select the file Students.txt from the Desktop folder where we had saved the file previously.
04:44 Click on the Open button.
04:47 Now we will add few more student details.
04:52 It is a good practice to save the file frequently. This avoids loss of data if there is a power cut or system crash.
05:02 Auto save option can be used to save a file automatically, in a specified time interval.
05:09 Let us see how to use the auto save option.
05:14 Click Edit in the Menu bar . Then click Preferences .
05:19 gedit Preferences dialog box appears.
05:23 Click the Editor tab at the top of the window.
05:27 Under the File Saving option, check the Autosave files checkbox.
05:33 And, in the minutes box, enter 2. Click on Close .
05:39 Now our files will get auto saved after every 2 minutes.
05:44 You can continue with your typing as it saves automatically.
05:49 Otherwise, you can click on the icon in the Toolbar with down-arrow to save the changes.
05:56 Lastly, to exit the gedit Text Editor window, click on File and Quit.
06:03 This brings us to the end of this tutorial.
