Bug Description
Binary package hint: filezilla
When right-clicking a remote file in Filezilla, a sub-menu appears with "View/Edit" as an option. Selecting this option fails until an editor is set under "Edit > Settings > File editing > Default editor:".
Since Filezilla is a GTK-based application and since Ubuntu's default text editor is gEdit, I propose adding gedit as Filezilla's default editor.
As per the user's preferences, this line is in the XML file ~/.filezilla/
<Setting name="Default editor" type="string"
I'm not sure how to set this up for FileZilla, the application itself, however.

To post a comment you must log in.
This should not be required as FileZilla is supposed to open the appropriate application for the file you're trying to edit. The "default editor" is only used in case it fails.
Can you confirm this behaviour? On which kind of file does it fail?
Anyway, I'm looking into how it would be possible to set a default editor by default.
