S+; broken for ages, Search Bar not saving strings..

Hi All, I've used jEdit since way back, on Windows XP Pro, and the biggest issue that I have is that whenever you try to type Shift + ';', to get ':', it always wants to shift the whole line over to the left! Sad I have a plain vanilla jEdit, with no Macros or Plugins. It's done that with every version I've ever had, right now I'm using the latest 43pre10. I don't see that keyboard combination in any Shortcut or anywhere. I don't know what's going on with it, and it drives me nuts. I'm tempted to try and dive into the code, but that's a pretty daunting task.. If it helps, here's the output from the Keyboard test when I hit that combination: Event KEY_PRESSED,keyCode=0x10,keyChar=0xffff,modifiers=0x1,consumed=0 filtered Event KEY_PRESSED,keyCode=0x3b,keyChar=0x3a,modifiers=0x1,consumed=0 passed Event KEY_TYPED,keyCode=0x0,keyChar=0x3a,modifiers=0x1,consumed=0 passed ==> Translated to S<0,3a> Event KEY_RELEASED,keyCode=0x3b,keyChar=0x3a,modifiers=0x1,consumed=0 passed Event KEY_RELEASED,keyCode=0x10,keyChar=0xffff,modifiers=0x0,consumed=0 filtered The other problem is that the Search Bar is supposed to save the strings you type into it so you can re-pick a previous one, but it doesn't save any of them. :-\ I haven't touched any of the property files. It's possible, because I've use much older versions of jEdit before, that somehow things got "mucked-up" and it isn't saving them right or something.. At one point I found and deleted a key property file related to that, and let it create a new one, but it still doesn't save anything.. The Search isn't too big a deal. If anybody has any ideas on how to "fix" the S+; problem, please let me know. Smiling Thanks, Joe Siebenmann
