| 00:01 | Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Third party Plugins in gedit Text editor. |
| 00:07 | In this tutorial, we will learn how to Install third party plugins and use it. |
| 00:15 | To record this tutorial, I am using: Ubuntu Linux 14.04 operating system gedit Text editor 3.10 |
| 00:25 | To follow this tutorial, you should have working knowledge of any operating system. |
| 00:32 | Now we will learn about third party plugins. |
| 00:36 | Plugins are also developed by other programmers |
| 00:40 | These are called third party plugins. |
| 00:44 | This gives you extra functionality that is not available in default gedit plugins. |
| 00:51 | Installing a third-party plugin involves: Downloading the plugin from the below link https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Gedit |
| 00:58 | Placing the plugin files in the correct directory |
| 01:02 | Activating the plugin |
| 01:05 | Let us go to the gedit website to download the plugins. |
| 01:10 | Click on the plugins link at the top right corner. |
| 01:14 | Click on Lists of gedit plugins. |
| 01:18 | We can see many links for third-party plugins for different versions of gedit Text editor. |
| 01:25 | Since my version of gedit is 3.10, I'll click on the link for version 3.8 and 3.10. |
| 01:34 | You have to choose the link depending upon your gedit version. |
| 01:39 | Scroll down to see the various third party plugins. |
| 01:44 | Let us explore the features of Intelligent Text completion. |
| 01:49 | Auto-close brackets and quotes |
| 01:52 | Auto-complete html tags |
| 01:55 | Auto-indent after function or list |
| 01:59 | I'll demonstrate how to install and use Intelligent Text Completion. |
| 02:06 | Let us go to the gedit website. |
| 02:09 | Click on the Download link. |
| 02:11 | We can see the Features and Installation details for Intelligent Text Completion. |
| 02:18 | Go through the information thoroughly for your own understanding. |
| 02:22 | Click on the Clone or download drop down box on the top right corner. |
| 02:29 | Then click on the Download Zip. |
| 02:32 | Select the Save file option and click Ok. |
| 02:36 | The file is saved in the Downloads folder. |
| 02:40 | Extract the files. Open the folder to see the available files. |
| 02:47 | I'll copy the folder gedit3-8, because my gedit version is higher than this. |
| 02:55 | We need to copy this folder to dot local/share/gedit/plugins in the Home directory. |
| 03:05 | Select the Home directory. |
| 03:08 | Click on the View menu on the Menu bar and select Show Hidden Files. |
| 03:15 | Locate the .local folder share. |
| 03:20 | Create the subdirectory gedit if it is not there. |
| 03:26 | Inside gedit directory, let us create another subdirectory called plugins. |
| 03:33 | Paste the folder or copy the files from the folder inside plugins. |
| 03:39 | Third party plugin files should be copied to the correct directory as shown. |
| 03:45 | Now our plugin is ready to use. |
| 03:49 | Let's open the gedit Text editor. |
| 03:52 | From the Main menu, click Edit and Preferences. |
| 03:56 | Under the Plugins tab, scroll down to see whether our third party plugin is added. |
| 04:03 | We can see the Intelligent Text completion plugin is added to our list. |
| 04:09 | Check the box.Click Close. |
| 04:13 | Let us see how the Intelligent Text completion helps us to write a html program. |
| 04:19 | I'll type tags as shown here. |
| 04:23 | After the less than symbol, press backslash. |
| 04:27 | It will automatically insert the title closing tag. |
| 04:32 | In the next line, type less than backslash. You can see the head closing tag is inserted. |
| 04:41 | Again type less than backslash. html closing tag is also inserted. |
| 04:48 | So, it automatically detects the html tags and creates them. |
| 04:54 | It makes our work easy while writing the source code. |
| 04:59 | We can see, the syntax highlight is in off mode. |
| 05:02 | Until you save a document in gedit Text editor, syntax highlighting is turned off. |
| 05:10 | You can turn it ON by clicking the menu View and Highlight Mode. |
| 05:16 | You can select the mode depending upon your source code. |
| 05:20 | As our program is HTML, I'll select HTML option from the list. |
| 05:28 | We can see, our HTML code gets highlighted with the syntax. |
| 05:33 | This brings us to the end of this tutorial. Let us summarise. |
| 05:38 | In this tutorial, we learnt about how to* Install third party plugins and use it. |
