Fast access to templates in GNOME
Right-click on your GNOME desktop and take a look at what is inside the Create Document menu. More than likely nothing. Why is that? This menu, as well as the Nautilus File > Create Document menu, are there for templates. But by default, there are no templates to be found. Why? Because you have to create them and put them there.
But you don't want to just have any file type inside of the the Create Document option. Instead you will want to have the type of documents you use most frequently. Depending upon where you access this feature, the document, and the icon for that document, will be displayed. For instance, if you right-click on the desktop that new document will appear on your desktop. If you use the Nautilus menu the icon for your new document will appear in the directory you accessed the menu entry. Let's take a closer look.
