  <title>Create a new file</title>

  <p>The easiest way to create a new file in <app>gedit</app>, is to click the
  <gui>Create a new document</gui> button on the left side of the header bar,
  or press <keyseq><key>Ctrl</key><key>T</key></keyseq>.</p>

  <p>Any one of these actions will create a new file in the <app>gedit</app>
  window. If you have other files open in <app>gedit</app>, the new file that
  you create will appear as a new tab to the right of those files.</p>
