I used to use gksudo gedit /etc/something.conf to edit system configuration files but this doesn't seem to work any more. Looks like there is no gksudo in 13.04. How can I add it back or what am I intended to use instead?

First of all, open a nautilus window to the directory you wish to add. Then click the small cog icon in the top right of the nautilus window and click the 'Bookmark this location' entry. It will be added to the "Bookmarks" section of the sidebar.
Ctrl + Alt + T
gksudo nemo
Enter password
Done!
If you are too lazy leave terminal open and just use Up/Down buttons to select command and Enter to shoot it!

Yes, there is NO
gksudoavailable for Ubuntu 13.04. It has been removed. So, you can use 'sudo' instead. Just type:sudo -i gedit /etc/something.conf. You will be asked for your password.If you are not comfortable with it, use this
sudo apt-get install gksuto install gksu, and you can use the gksudo command.
