I am using JEdit (4.2 Stable) on an old Linux CentOS (uname -r = 2.4.21) at work and on Fedora 8 at home. On both I use KDE environment. Recently I got VPN connection to work. Then I connect through a ssh -X -C -q -l username machine_name. The connection works well and it feels like working at the office. However JEdit shows some worrying phenomena. If I logout from work when I login into my session through VPN and then I can start JEdit and it will appear at my machine at Home. Everything is fine and well. However If I forget to logout at work, jedit will refuse to appear at my machine at home ... Unlike many other applicatios which do appear at the screen at home. When I get to the office I will see extra windows at the office for each time I started jedit. Also, and this is the most worrying phenomena. For every time I start jedit on a remote connection, even if it doesn't appear on my screen (it appears at the screen at work) a new window appears. So far I have 5 JEdit windows. And that number has increased for every jedit start I have executed through VPN. The fact is that when I get back to the office even after closing JEdit or rebooting the Linux machine, still when starting JEdit I get 5 windows. I am worried that if this keeps going Jedit is going to become unusable. I have been looking at /.jedit folder settings also at /tmp ... Also I have tried to start Jedit from the command line with different versions but still the phenomena persists. Nothing I can find nothing that may indicated something like a "replication of sessions - windows". If anyone can give me a hint of where to look, which files to delete in order to correct this behaviour, I will be very grateful. Does anyone know if there is "professional support" (i.e. read "paid support") for JEdit? This issue is quite urgent, if I don't get it sorted I will be forced to use another editor when working remotely. And even at the office too will be forced to stop using JEdit until this issue is solved. Could this be a bug in Jedit? Probably not, I figure is some issue in this bloody old CentOS that I have to use at work. Thanks for reading.
