You can't use positional parameters in an alias; you need to use a
function instead:
# ed is a real program, so use something else to avoid confusion.
# Usage: ged <file1 ... fileN>
function ged {
while [[ $1 ]]; do
gedit $1 &
shift
done
}
Put this in your .bashrc file, and either source it or log back in to
enable the function.
