Add "Open with gedit" in Ubuntu Menu

The file browser in Ubuntu provides the ability to run scripts on a selected
file. These scripts can be used to do anything from opening a file to zipping or
uploading, or anything that you can do from the command line.

To start off, we will need to open a terminal window and type in the
following command, which will create a new script file in our nautilus scripts
directory

gedit ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/Open\ with\ gedit

Paste in the following script, found on the G-Scripts site, which is a great resource
for finding scripts.

#!/bin/bash

#

# Nautilus script -> open gedit

do

files=`echo "$1″ sed 's/ /\?/g'`

filesall="$files $filesall"

shift

done

gedit $filesall&

Save and close the gedit window, and then execute the following command to
make the script executable:

chmod u+x ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/Open\ with\ gedit

Note that tab completion really helps here

Now when you right click a file, you should see this:
