Ive started using gnome and I loved gedit, ctrl+F9 opens the embedded terminal but the directory is not the one I created my .cpp file in, by default it is in home directory. How should I set it so that the default directory is the directory I'm working in.

You may want to give a look at this one. It's old, a bit complicated, but maybe could be a starting point: [SUMIT KUMAR SINGH] Can I make gedit embedded terminal cd automatically to the current file's directory? command-line, directory, gedit asked by SUMIT…
