Bug Description

In FileZilla, when I want to edit a file, it tries to start Gedit (and does'nt find it of course) instead of Pluma.
Problem with Linux Mint 14 MATE 64 bits.

Can you set it to Pluma?

Also try opening Nemo, go to the folder of the file you're looking to edit. Right click > open with other application > right click Gedit > forget association

I don't have Nemo but Caja (using Linux MINT 14 MATE 64 bits, not Cinnamon).
I reported this bug not only to have a solution now but because I would like this bug will not appear in the next version of Linux MINT. Will it be corrected?

In fact, there are a lot of lines to modify (see screenshot).

In my Filezilla, I do not have those lines to modify - there is nothing there.

Try (backing up) and then deleting those lines and have it blank.

Did you also try changing all the values from 'gedit' to 'Pluma'?

No, I deleted all. How can I use Pluma instead of LibreOffice?

I'm not sure then.

Can you not just open the files from Caja (right click and choose your own application) instead of through Filezilla?

When I clik on a .txt file from Caja, Pluma opens it. When it's from FileZilla, LibreOffice starts it.
Strange. I joined the Filezilla configuration.

You're not alone ... Mint 17 x64, Filezilla starts LibreOffice to view/edit a text file.

I use Caja, and also 'xdg-open filename.txt' from the command line. Both correctly open the text file in Pluma.

I was able to get a usable configuration by adding the following to Edit -> Settings -> File editing -> Filetype associations:
txt "/usr/bin/pluma"
