I'm
this close to switching to Kate as many recommend. I hesitate because I use gedit in a lot of alias commands and cron jobs.
I'm trying to edit the shortcut keys for gedit, but when I change the keys in /home/matias/.config/gedit/accels, the new keys I map have no impact, and the old ones still function as before.
As per other threads on this topic, I
1) did my editing in nano
2) no copy of gedit was running
3) chmod +w on file
I saw
this thread on a similar issue, but I have gtk-2.0 in my .config/ directory, not gtk-3.0, nor anything *.css. I tried adding gtk.css in the gtk-2.0 directory with the code from the same link above, but it had no impact.

So what can I do? I'm a little lost at this point. It seems like that accels file is a decoy.....
Assuming I can't easily fix this, I suppose I could use sed -i to go and change all the instances of gedit in my bashrc, bash files, cron, etc....or is there an easier way?
