Public bug reported:
https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/36637
Affects: gedit (Ubuntu)
Severity: Normal
Priority: (none set)
Status: Unconfirmed
Description:
When you open a binary (or any file without proper character encoding),
the gedit window that is raised will look quite odd. The error message
will take 3/4ths of the screen, but a yellow box will overlap it a
little tiny bit. You can reproduce this error like this:
$ gedit /bin/ls
Notice the yellow box, and how it overlaps the message
I will attatch a screenshot.
Also, if the filename is long, the window is especially odd looking.
You can reproduce this bug like this:
$ cp /bin/ls ~/
$ mv ~/ls ~/reallyreallylongfilenameblahblah
$ gedit ~/reallyreallylongfilenameblahblah
Notice how the error message is half in the yellow box, but half in the
message window. Strange. I will attach a screenshot of this behavior.
