             Summary: Use "gnome-open" instead of "gedit" for edit command on Linux
                 Key: FORGE-466
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/FORGE-466
             Project: Forge
          Issue Type: Enhancement
          Components: Builtin Plugins
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0.Beta5
            Reporter: Dan Allen
            Priority: Minor


Use the more generic "gnome-open" to edit a file rather than "gedit". This is a very simple, one-line fix that can provide the ability to use an alternate editor in the short term until a formal configuration solution is implemented.

sed -i 's/gedit/gnome-open/' shell/src/main/java/org/jboss/forge/shell/plugins/builtin/EditPlugin.java

You may want to take it one step further and check if gnome-open is there. If not, try kde-open. As a last resort, you can just open the file normally (like the view plugin).
