Description Cory Kaufman 2010-12-29 19:28:29 UTC 
If I type "gksudo gedit directory" in a terminal, gedit opens but gives me an error because directory is a directory and not a file. I would expect opening a directory with gedit to open with the filebrowser pointed to that directory and no files open. Is this possible?
