Trouble adding Markdown syntax highlighting mode for the jEdit 5.0
Submitted by avamk on Saturday, 21 July, 2012 - 01:25
Hello, I am just starting to explore jEdit 5.0 on Mac OS X 10.6.8, and so far I find it all to be very exciting! Thanks for creating such a great piece of software. I downloaded the markdown.xml Markdown syntax highlighting mode from here: https://github.com/peterlynch/jEdit-modes And I tried to add it to jEdit by placing markdown.xml in the same folder as ~/Library/jEdit/modes/catalog Then I added the following to the catalog and saved it: However, even after restarting jEdit, the markdown mode still does not appear when I try to change modes in the Buffer Options dialog. How should I troubleshoot this, did I skip any steps? Thanks!

Sorry I noticed that I added it *after* the section. After moving it into that section I got Markdown highlighting.
