adding new highlight plugin entry
Submitted by decuman on Monday, 5 December, 2011 - 05:05
Hey Guys,

Someone using highlight plugin intensively?
I have some issues with adding a new highlight entry through highlight dialog. The dialog works normally but when I press add it just silently goes away with nothing added to the list. My highlights list is empty... however cursor highlight works normally (apart from -2 linespace weirdness with offset highlight outline in the latest 4.5pre1 build )

Just in case my Java version is : 1.7.0_01

Thanks in advance,
Nick

jedit stopped opening
Submitted by dwoodward on Tuesday, 6 December, 2011 - 12:46
I was using jedit yesterday with no problems. This morning it won't start. I click on the icon or select the program from the list and nothing happens. It's as if I never clicked on it in the first place. Everything else on the computer seems fine.
All I have done between these two times that might be connected is log on to a wireless network for the first time ever. Any help appreciated....

How to move the caret to an absolute coordinate
Submitted by gary_m on Thursday, 8 December, 2011 - 16:09
Given a coordinate (x, y) how can I set the caret to be at that position? I tried using JEditTextArea.xToScreenLineOffset to calculated the offset, however it givens strange answers.

In a file were I tried to move the caret to (1, 484) it givens an array index out of bounds error.

Definitely not the droids I'm looking for.

Large Files under Win7
Submitted by kjg48359 on Sunday, 11 December, 2011 - 21:06
Hi, I've looked a while, but not finding out how to edit large files under windows 7. This one might be tricky, but I also do not have admin rights on the machine (corporate environment).

I think the issue is is how can I pass parms to the java machine, when in windows there's a executable (jedit.exe) that must do the work of calling java. I tried the "-mx256m" parm to jedit.exe, but it doesn't seem to be accepted.

I've also tried to run the start up parm by borrowing my sys admin's id and pswd and editing the entry in the registry for startups to the following key: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

key: "jEdit Server" value: "C:\Program Files x(86)\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -xms64, -xmx256m -jar "c:\Program Files\jEdit\jedit.jar" -background -nogui --i4j- dont-wait

(oh and yes, using the admin id, I updated "ij4.ini" in the jedit subdirectory to have the value "-mx264m". Nothing seems to work on editing a 300 meg file in Win7).

Thanks.
save a file with name in sequenze like versioncontroll
Submitted by leuveg on Tuesday, 13 December, 2011 - 14:19
Hei, (sorry for my ugly english -_-" )

i use jEdit for text writing (Examen) and i would save my text files in a sequence like
Text_2012_12_13__01.txt
Text_2012_12_13__02.txt
Text_2012_12_13__03.txt
...
for Bakup. Smiling
In this time i can do this only per hand, but i looking for a plugin/makro/etc. that i get a button for 'klicking' and do this automatical. I know SVN and so, but i think that is a little bit to much for a simple single work text.

Has someone an idea or help for me?

Greetings,
Jens
I broke my /usr/bin/jedit.sh startup script
Submitted by Sn3akyP3t3 on Wednesday, 14 December, 2011 - 21:53
Environment:
Ubuntu 11.04 Desktop 64 bit. Jedit was installed from the repository.

Error encountered:
(at the command line) "jedit" under logged in user returns:
exec: 10: /usr/local/java/latest/bin/java: not found
however, "sudo jedit" opens the jedit editor as expected. No error returned.

Java:
Some meddling with custom Java installations was performed and probably the cause of the problem. Details will be disclosed when it is pertinent information.
"which java" returns:
/usr/bin/java
"java -version" returns
java version "1.6.0_22"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.10.4) (6b22-1.10.4-0ubuntu1~11.04.1)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b11, mixed mode)

contents of /usr/bin/jedit.sh:
#!/bin/sh
#
#
. /usr/lib/java-wrappers/java-wrappers.sh
find_java_runtime java6
find_jars /usr/share/jedit/jedit.jar
run_java org.gjt.sp.jedit.jEdit "$@"

java-wrappers.sh called which calls /usr/lib/java-wrappers/jvm-list.sh

I'm unclear how jedit is determining "/usr/local/java/latest/bin/java" to be the location where java is supposed to be existing. The script that did some butchering to my Ubuntu installation is located here:
https://github.com/talltroym/Railo-Ubuntu-Installer-Script/blob/master/setup-railo.sh
Under the section # Download and Install Java there was some undesirable changes made that I tried to revert from. I deleted /usr/local/java, removed "JAVA_HOME" & "JRE_HOME" from /etc/environment, and deleted the symbolic link "/usr/local/bin/java" in attempts to recover from changes. I'm also boggled why "sudo jedit" runs while "jedit" returns the error.
Jedit Proxy settings password encryption
Submitted by decuman on Friday, 16 December, 2011 - 01:39
Hello,

I just noticed that my proxy settings password (which I do not want to expose to anyone) goes directly to .jedit/properties files with no encryption which, i believe, could be unsafe. Is it possible to add a simple encryption and instead of putting it explicitly into the preference file just encode it with some hashing function.

Thanks,
Nik
Qmake Edit Mode (qmake.xml v1.0 by flyer-explorer)
Submitted by flyer-explorer on Friday, 16 December, 2011 - 05:17
This is my first stab at an edit mode for qmake's .pro and .pri build files. It has:
  • All the official documented variables
  • Some extra "use the source luke" variables from qmake's sources.
  • All the current (as of QT 4.7)'s buildspecs with shortcuts
To activate the edit mode, you will need to add this to your catalog:

<MODE NAME="qmake" FILE="qmake.xml" FILE_NAME_GLOB="*.{pro,pri}" />

Yes, I know .pro conflicts with prolog, but .pro is the default for qmake as well. If you run into any problems. comments, or suggestions, email me at n-p-o-t-t-s u-c-a-r[dot]edu. Add the circle a where it seems appropriate.

Possibility to reactivate the I-O Monitor
Submitted by barcla on Tuesday, 20 December, 2011 - 15:12
Hi,
I ask the possibility to reactivate I-O Monitor, inexplicably disappeared in the r. 4.5.pre 1; according to my opinion it worked better of the Task Monitor and in more precise way.

Tanks.

modified bufferlist plugin with ability to ctrl click select multiple files, then right click to split into multiple windows
Submitted by mfenston on Thursday, 22 December, 2011 - 03:07
Evaluating jEdit as replacement for Textpad 4.7.3 ... this is one feature I can't seem to find on any other editor (Even the latest TextPad 5). I see jEdit has the split feature, I see the bufferlist plugin, but the two are not integrated.
PovRAY ini commando file (povini.xml v0.2 by monkstone)
Submitted by monkstone on Sunday, 25 December, 2011 - 08:42
Commando file for PovRAY to run povray.ini file from the working buffer. Single option is toggle whether the final image is paused in the PovRAY window. In my experience requires double-mouseclick to close a paused window. Now allows choice of quality, if specified in ini file. You should also create a macro:-
// povini.bsh
new console.commando.CommandoDialog(view,"commando.povini"); 
noob needs macro assistance..
Submitted by jdlx on Friday, 30 December, 2011 - 03:20
Hi,

i'd appreciate if someone could help me on this nobrainer.. (well not for me obviously Eye-wink :

I'd like to grab some selected text, or if none is selected, the content of the clipboard,
and then do some search/replace, add some text, and paste back to the textarea..
my approach so far:

var = textArea.getSelectedText();
if(var.length == 0){
// get text from clipboard & assign to var..
// Registers.cut(textArea,'$'); does get the clipboard, but i just don't know how to assign it to var..
}
esc_var = var.replaceAll("'", "\"");
textArea.setSelectedText("FB::log("+var+",'"+esc_var+"');");

cheers & thx..

Highlight all matches with 'find'
Submitted by seminal on Thursday, 5 January, 2012 - 21:09
New to Jedit - liking it so far. When I hit ctrl + f to find something, it only highlights the first matched result. How do I set it to highlight all the matches on the script?

thanks
Plugins Not Installing (Suspect Windows 7 "Feature")
Submitted by jgamble on Saturday, 7 January, 2012 - 00:42
I've installed jEdit on my new Windows 7 computer, and cannot upgrade plugins or install new ones.

After attempting to upgrade Template, I got the message "The plugin C:\Users\John M Gamble\.jedit\jars\Templates.jar could not be removed", followed by "Error while downloading the plugin, please try another mirror".

New plugins went through the download process (successfully), but then reported "Error while downloading the plugin, please try another mirror" for each one. Changing the plugin installation directory in Global Options from "jEdit settings directory" to "jEdit application directory" had no effect.

I tried this with jEdit version 4.3.3 and 4.4.2 as well, with the same results. I installed the latest version of Java (jdk-7u1-windows-x64.exe), with no change.

So this problem appears to be Windows related, but I can't seem to find anything that would cause this. Which is annoying, as I really need to use the GitPlugin. Any ideas?
