OK now I'm going to try the "Texto" plugin instead: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/73747 https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/73747

- fexl 17y agoWow, the Texto plugin does exactly what I want! After installing it in Firefox, I told it to use this editor: /usr/bin/gvim Now when I want to edit a text area in vim, I just click the little Texto icon which appears in that text area and up pops a gvim window! Note that I can still edit the text area normally as well. That's what I'm doing in this paragraph. And now in this paragraph I'm editing in gvim again.
