The first command works, but geany can not open syslog? I am the owner of the copied syslog.
Why is that? The file is only 1.4 Mb.
cp /var/log/syslog /home/andy/Downloads/syslog.txt
geany /home/andy/Downloads/syslog.txt
#rm /home/andy/Downloads/syslog.txt
When geany tries to open it, it just opens a untitled file.

? probably a permission issuesplit
. Split the file into 8 pieces and manipulate the files with an editor."
