Coding in Gedit can be really annoying, because Pango (the backend for GtkTextView) uses a word-break algorithm that’s optimized more for speech than for code. As a result, “delete previous word” on a word that contains both letters and numbers will detect a word boundary where other text editors don’t, namely between letters and numbers and on underscores. It’s rather annoying, and so far I haven’t been able to tell if there is any way to fix it short of building a customized Pango.
Anyone know if this is possible, and if it’s not, how to make it possible ASAP?

Could you solve this problem?
Hi
Your posting in a thread that is a number of years old. Please start a
new thread detailing the openSUSE version your using, desktop
environment (is it just GNOME?) and perhaps an example of the text that
your having issues with.
