vim as default text editor in debian

Posted 05-23-2011 at 09:25 PM by sumeet inani

I have 'vim-gnome' installed
First select any file .
In properties > openwith tab
select GVim Text editor
Now I wanted that : After a file has been opened the other text file should be in new tab in same window
So I edited '/usr/share/applications/gvim.desktop'

Code:

Exec=gvim -f --remote-tab-silent %F

I wanted an offline repository at home for my faithful
pentium3 , 1Ghz , 384MB RAM desktop .
So I ran

Code:

wget -b -A i386.deb,i386.udeb,dsc,gz,all.deb  -r -a progress-log  -mk -c ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/

Debian repository is 200GB including all 11 architectures it support .So we have to be specific.

I don't know whether 8 dvd iso from http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/.../i386/iso-dvd/ is repository or not ? otherwise...

What if srt is badly coded causing subtitles to appear early &
