How can I access Gedit?

Question

I'm on PSET1, and I'd like to program what I see on the lectures. How can I access Gedit?

Any help on how to start will be appreciated

Thanks,

OScar

Are you using the "CS50 Appliance"? If so, you have a GEdit icon next to the "Menu" button (the one that looks like a notepad). Otherwise, click the terminal icon to open a terminal window, and type the command gedit. — abelinux, Dec 23, 2014 at 17:21

If using the CS50 appliance, you will see a shortcut is already added for gedit on the taskbar.

enter image description here

If you directly want to open a code file, say example.c, open the terminal, navigate to its folder and type

gedit example.c

You can also find it in the menu.

However, gedit runs in the terminal, so if you end gedit with Ctrl-C, Gedit will stop.
