I am using Brackets in Ubuntu 14.04. Ubuntu gets the following error when trying to open a file in Brackets from the terminal.

$ brackets developers.html 
[1007/002314:ERROR:browser_main_loop.cc(261)] Gtk: Locale not supported by C library.
    Using the fallback 'C' locale.
[1007/002314:ERROR:browser_main_loop.cc(261)] Gtk: GModule (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/immodules/im-ibus.so) initialization check failed: GLib version too old (micro mismatch)
[1007/002314:ERROR:browser_main_loop.cc(261)] Gtk: Loading IM context type 'ibus' failed
[1007/002314:ERROR:gconf_listener.cc(117)] Error with gconf key '/apps/metacity/general': Failed to activate configuration server: The name org.gnome.GConf was not provided by any .service files

[1007/002317:ERROR:browser_main_loop.cc(261)] Gtk: GModule (/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/immodules/im-ibus.so) initialization check failed: GLib version too old (micro mismatch)
[1007/002317:ERROR:browser_main_loop.cc(261)] Gtk: Loading IM context type 'ibus' failed

I tried changing directories to the location of developers.html with cd and running brackets developers.html with sudo and without sudo, but the result is the same.

Brackets only supports opening files from the command line in Windows and Mac, not in Linux. According to Brackets Command Line Tools:

Linux support is still in progress - Brackets can be launched from the command line, but it does not accept arguments.

Opening an html or css file in Brackets by selecting File -> Open -> browse to a file and select it -> click Open button works properly.

Opening files/folders in Brackets from the terminal in Brackets is a feature request at Adobe Brackets Trello board. Need to implement GetPendingFilesToOpen() in appshell_extensions_gtk to read files from command line arguments.
