When you create a new file in kate
or gedit
they name them like "Untitled1" or "Unsaved Document 1". How can you change this to some other string$n pattern of your choice?
1 Answer
I just checked the source codes of both the softwares and unfortunately we can't change those names, as those are hardcoded :(

For gedit : https://git.gnome.org/browse/gedit/tree/gedit/gedit-document.c#n1223

Yup. Probably, making them to read from a config file would look great.... Apr 6, 2013 at 20:10

2Both these strings are being looked up through a i18n/localisation utility. I'm not sure if either handles these strings at runtime, or if they're hard-coded at compile time - but if you could provide your own localisation strings, that might work without a full recompile.– Oli ♦Apr 6, 2013 at 20:56
