This is a simple question that must have been answered hundreds of
times, but I couldn't find an answer anywhere. I'm trying to use
gedit on Windows 7, and I cannot edit preferences --- all the
choices are greyed out. For example, I cannot turn line numbers on
or off, or change color schemes. However, if I run gedit as an
administrator, I can change preferences with no problems.
Apparently, gedit is trying to store my preferences somewhere that
requires administrator privileges to access. I've searched
everywhere, and cannot find any files like .gedit, .gedit2, or
.gnome in Linux. So my question is simple. Where does gedit store configuration data like preferences, and how can I make gedit store this information in my directory so don't have to run gedit as an administrator??? Thanks!!! Larry ---
