gedit – Location on disk of profiles' settings

  • 772

I created two new profiles in Text Editor (gedit) with custom colors. I'd like to backup those settings.

There is nothing related to profiles, for example, in ~/.config/gedit/ or ~/.local/share/gedit/.

Where does gedit save the profile settings?

configuration gedit settings 18.04

    Color Schemes can be placed in the following locations:

    # global
/usr/share/gtksourceview-3.0/styles
# for user
~/.local/share/gtksourceview-3.0/styles

    or

    # global
/usr/share/gedit/styles
# for user
~/.local/share/gedit/styles

    If the directories do not exist, you can simply create them.
