I just had this problem. Coming from 12.04 to 14.04 my executable that was launching WebStorm just started opening in GEdit. It felt like a bug, not a "Feature". This is why I went back to Windows. Someone decided to make an arbitrary decision and now I have to find why it happened. These develop

It is not an unuseful comment, is UX feedback, which should be valued the most. When I initially reacted to this bug, I was reporting my experience helping users update and observing their struggle with layers of fixes on their desktop, often scripts made by friends to help execute tasks. A LEAN U

Hi, For me this is a bug, the fix should be applied to the original package, so 13.04 and future ubuntu installations will not suffer from this. There is no sense with behavior 'View executable text files' selected by default for a regular user. Shellscripts are commonly used to launch other ex

This was an intentional change done by upstream Nautilus developers. Showing a dialog by default makes problems for users that have external drives with FAT32-like filesystem, where all files are executable. See: https://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/commit/?id=72d6c7ce7febd573 https://bugzilla.gn

Thanks for the references to the upstream process. Not just the executable bit, but also the file magic (shell script or ELF) could be parsed to sort out problems. However, I guess this is not the place for discussing this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubunt

We should pay attention to this indeed. This is a radical change for many users acquainted to execute shell scripts or having them written by friends to fix things. Believe me, this happens *all the time*. Changing this behavior without any notice is irresponsible, a very conservative step that

It's a completely incorrect behavior always to open executable text files with Text Editor - lots of executable installers are very big (200-500Mb) and opening very big files with Text Editor causes freeze of operating system for several minutes on older computers, try for example to open Unigine_V
