I'm not familiar with the innards of textern, so all I can suggest are a few debugging ideas: - Restart everything (Firefox, your login session) and test again. - Verify that you have Python 3.5+ installed on Linux as the ``python3`` executable in PATH. - Test with gedit or another editor. - Use a script in place of the editor, and within the script write to a file to prove the script was launched. You may well have already tried everything I listed above and more. For me, it just works as advertised; hopefully you can make it work in your environment, too.
