no launcher for gedit and no option to open text files with gedit - osamu.morozumi - 06-03-2018

The only way I can open gedit at the moment is to search for it and then select "run gedit".  I would like to put a gedit launcher in my dock.  If I right click on a text file there is no option to open it using gedit.  How can I rectify this?

Gedit on my 4.0 test box is in Menu, Accessories, Text Editor - 'Edit text files'. Right click files to edit, select Open with Text Editor (2nd option). No problems here.

Thanks.  Didn't realize it's just called text editor in 4.0.  But developer tools are not available in simple text editor.
