How do I specify the placeholder for the current in Gedit's manage external tools.
For example if I want this in my external tools what should i use?
perl -d:ptkdb my_current_file.pl
pertidy my_current_file.pl

The documentation lists a number of environment variables that can be used.
- GEDIT_CURRENT_DOCUMENT_URI
- GEDIT_CURRENT_DOCUMENT_NAME
- GEDIT_CURRENT_DOCUMENT_SCHEME
- GEDIT_CURRENT_DOCUMENT_PATH
- GEDIT_CURRENT_DOCUMENT_DIR
- GEDIT_DOCUMENTS_URI
- GEDIT_DOCUMENTS_PATH
Sounds like you might want GEDIT_CURRENT_DOCUMENT_NAME.

the perltidy and debugger work fine. Is there a way to execute the current file in a terminal? this is what I have but it executes in the bottom bar and then opens a terminal. gnome-terminal --working-directory=$GEDIT_CURRENT_DOCUMENT_DIR & perl $GEDIT_CURRENT_DOCUMENT_NAME – sayth Nov 25 '11 at 12:53
