[Bug 1010402] Re: Problem opening RawText file
well, I don't know about that .rc format but firefox says it's a binary and not a text format same on the command line $ less test-2.rc "test-2.rc" may be a binary file. See it anyway? somebody should open a bug upstream in any case, but whatever that format is, it's a bit different from standard plain text -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gedit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1010402 Title: Problem opening RawText file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/1010402/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1010402] Re: Problem opening RawText file
Here is the SAME file with only a few characters removed in one of the strings. And gedit opens it perfectly! So definetely a bug in gedit when dealing with RawText binary files. ** Attachment added: "test-2.rc" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/1010402/+attachment/3182662/+files/test-2.rc -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gedit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1010402 Title: Problem opening RawText file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/1010402/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1010402] Re: Problem opening RawText file
The whole point is that this file (resource file generated by Visual C++) does not appear to contain any invalid character. After opening file test.rc with Windows' Notepad and removing 'END' at line 387, then saving file, gedit can open file without any problem. After re-adding 'END' at line 387 (using gedit or Notepad) and saving file, gedit can no longer open file. That is what is really weird about it. ** Attachment added: "Capture du 2012-06-09 06:10:51.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/1010402/+attachment/3182045/+files/Capture%20du%202012-06-09%2006%3A10%3A51.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gedit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1010402 Title: Problem opening RawText file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/1010402/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Confirming, the file is a bit weird though, "less" says it's a binary file and display it garbagged as well where "cat" displays it fine -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gedit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1010402 Title: Problem opening RawText file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/1010402/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
