03:52	The content is pasted in the specified location.
03:56	This is a simple and effective way to cut, copy and paste content in gedit .
04:04	Next we will see Undo and Redo options.
04:07	gedit Text editor allows to Undo any changes that are made in a file.
04:13	Basically, it erases the last change done to the document.
04:18	This is useful when you have made a mistake and want to Undo it.
04:23	The keyboard shortcut for Undo is Ctrl + Z .
04:27	The opposite of Undo is Redo .
04:31	The Redo command reverses the Undo action.
