Cursor Beyond Line End?
Submitted by on Monday, 19 January, 2004 - 17:55
Hello. I am new to Jedit so if this is already implemented somewhere, I'd appreciate a pointer...
As far as I can tell, there is no way to permit the cursor to move beyond a line's end into "virtual" space. Is there any way to permit this? Once in "virtual" space, any character entered will be placed at that location and the characters between the current line end and the new character are "filled" with white spaces. This would also permit the cursor to NOT have to follow line ends while moving up and down in a file.
If there is any way to implement this using a plugin, I am willing to give it a shot. I just have no idea where/how to begin.
Thanks,
David
