It asked me to chose a text editor. I chose Open office. Then I found out open office can't open greasemonkey scripts.

How do I make it open scripts with gedit?

GreaseMonkey scripts are plain text files that have a file extension user.js. Every text editor should be able to handle such a file. What happens if you open that file with OO Writer?

You can probably find the selected editor as a pref on the about:config page.
