How to create a .txt file on the desktop with Linux Mint

Go to your desktop and right click any free space.  Click "create from template" then click empty file.  A popup will come up asking for a name of the file.  Call the file any name then add .txt to the end of the name.  So it should look like this, if the name of the file is gaming;

  • gaming.txt
Now you have a gaming text file on your desktop.  You can do this trick with other file types to.  Like and empty .mp3 or .avi.
