This site lets jEdit users share their knowledge and tools with each other. There is a download library with macros, edit modes and beta plugins, a number of forums, and a Wiki containing topics such as Installing Java, Switching to jEdit, and Plugin Information.

Hi all,

I proudly present jEdit 4.5.0, the first stable release of the 4.5 series of jEdit.

Detailed changes can as always be found in the Change Log attached in the end of this email, but here are some of the major features of this version:

• Performance improvements, as well as a "large file" mode for handling extra large files.
• Edit using Elastic tabstops, set from Global Options - Editing, Buffer Options, or via buffer-local properties.
• Lots of old deprecated APIs were removed. Some plugins may be broken as a result.
• Choose color ordering for subpixel antialiasing (Global Options - Text Area - Anti-Aliased Smoothed Text) (Feature #2989209).
• Desktop System Tray icon to indicate when jEdit is running (Feature #1657143).
• It is now possible to switch look and feel without restarting jEdit.
• It is possible to specify a FILE_NAME_GLOB for an edit mode based on the full path (see entry for apacheconf mode in modes/catalog for an example) (Feature #2557712).
• File System Browser can now open files in desktop, using desktop filename associations to launch another program.
• Plugin Manager Enhancements, filter field, bugs fixed.

Volunteers are always welcome to contribute to the future of jEdit:

I proudly present 4.4.1, the first official stable release of the
4.4 series of jEdit.

I want to appologize again for the confusion that arised when the faulty
4.4 release was created and then taken back down. To avoid confusion
about what version someone is using, the 4.4 release is skipped
completely.

Hi all,

in a long hard piece of work I cleaned up our wiki completely from the spam. I not only fixed the pages, I also deleted all the spam revisions and spam users. I even recreated the TWikiUsers topic how it should be. So now the wiki is cleaned up and usable again. Have fun using it.

Regards
Vampire

The donation system got reactivated for jEdit and so you can donate via SourceForge and PayPal.
Just go to http://sourceforge.net/project/project_donations.php?group_id=588 and donate what you like.

Thanks in advance from the jEdit team.

Unfortunately I had to roll-back a backup of the wiki-content from 26. July 2005, because of a loss of data.
For the future there is a daily backup made automatically.
Please redo any changes that you did since the Backup.

I had to delete dozens of Spam-Comments every day which were submitted by anonymous users, so I decided to not allow anonymous users to make forum-topics or post comments anymore. Now, as the mail-sending works again, everyone who wants to post can make a new or request a new password for his account.
I appologize for inconvenience, but anonymous users can still read and download all things, just not post.
For problems regarding registration on the community-page you can contact me directly via eMail Vampire@jEdit.org

I already wrote it to the Users-Mailinglist, but maybe not all are signed in there, so I write it here again.
I fixed the problem of the community-page not being able to send mails, which prevented new users from creating accounts and old users to request a new password because the mails didn't get to them.
So if you registered an account but never received the password-mail, just go to
Request new password and request a new one. And of course the same if you forgot your password and need a new one, even if you already tried it and didn't receive a mail. NOW it should send you the requested mail.
