execute the the current file
Submitted by Anonymous on Tuesday, 12 July, 2005 - 16:13
Hello,

jEdit is a text editor, text is saved in files and files are associated with applications. When I'm in the windows explorer and double-click on a rb file the ruby interpreter gets launches. I would like to execute the file from within jEdit by let's say pressing F5, is that possible? I hope I'm the right track using jEdit and Ruby for shell scripting in Windows, I don't want to mess with WSH and .NET doesn't support scripting, there are work arounds for .NET scripting but I thought it might be smarter to learn Ruby.

Regards,
stax

It is best for you to run jedit under a command prompt. Develop a script to run your application with Ruby to work with a single DOS/Cygwin command and run jedit in the background. That should be simple enough for your specific use of jEdit.

I think what he searches is the "Misc/Run Script" Macro, which he of course can bind to any key he wants.
