Re: make terminal VIM my default text editor Ubuntu 11.04

Hi Juan,

I think you should use something like
guake -n; guake -e <command>
or
guake -n -e <command>
in your file.

However, this is just a guess.
I found the command line options to guake in their source
http://guake.org/browser/src/guake (lines 795 to 837)

They are documented therein. However, I do not use guake by myself and it did
not even build on my machine due to missing dependencies.
You might have to ask on their mailing list how to open a new tab and execute
a command in that new tab.

Cheers
Tobias
