Mac OSX 10.8 "jEdit.app" is damaged

Tue, 26 Feb 2013 16:33:28 +0000

When the jEdit 5.0 release is run on Mac OS X 10.8.2, the following message is displayed:

"jEdit.app" is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the Trash.

Clicking on OK moves jEdit.app to the Trash and Cancel just quits. I am still able to run jEdit 4.5, but I would like to try out 5.0.

Has anyone else seen this behavior? Is there a workaround?

Plugin fails to parse trees with more than one top level

Wed, 07 Sep 2011 11:04:46 +0000

Consider the following outline:

A
rtrtrt
tarstrt
artrat

B
ttrtratrs

C
ratrtrtr

I expec to see on the sidekick (at level 1):
A
B
C

Instead I get
A
rtrtrt
B
C

Plugin fails to parse a any tree with more than one top-level item.
It thinks that once you indent, there's no going back one level

Please enhance ProjectViewer to allow multiple open projects

Fri, 12 Aug 2011 20:44:04 +0000

Hi !

I just made an additional comment to:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2965024&group_id=588&atid=997936

Is there any chance, that - some day - someone
has a look onto it and give reasonable feedback??

If I see, what has changes in the meantime, may I ask: "Is
JEdit dead" ???

Thanks a lot and
br++mabra

Hello!

In real world, one works usually with multiple projects at "the same time" and there are a lot of situations, where you generalize work from one or two projects into a new one [into a library, for example]. Additionally, such "parallel open" behavior would really add nice other features to work with:Say, bundle all my daily note-files together into a project, so I can access them all at one with "a single click".
I would prefer to allow the ProjectViewer to allow this. This would be - from my perspective - the greatest enhancement to the JEdit plugins ever!

Thanks a lot!

mysql tables problem

Fri, 02 Nov 2007 00:33:49 +0000

I just figured out that there is a problem in table definition... actually, mysql script used to create tables contains some odd field name (eg: "index") and mysql report an error. If it's correct it's necessary to change db init script and tables references in the code.

Please create a feature to allow community members to monitor forum blogs and delete fake/spam users

Sun, 19 Nov 2006 18:27:46 +0000

The tons of chinese comment spam is wrecking the usefulness of JEdit's community site. Here are some ideas (not knowing anything about Drupal) how to sort this out:

1) Community self-policing: allow/invite some users somehow (loyal, longtime, frequent posters, ask who is interested?) to volunteer to police the community site. Limit capability only to delete posts, or report a user abusing the site (this will prevent misuse by volunteers!). Then, when users or posts are marked as requiring deletion or something, another group agrees, or the admin has final say or something like that.

Of course, this needs to be done in such a way that the same robots that create accounts and post content do not create volunteer accounts!

2) Put rel="nofollow" or whatever it is, in the anchor tag of html posts, so that spammers have no need to try and create fake accounts. They are just trying to increase their links so that search engines will follow them.

Drupal must have some comment spam plug-in surely?

Not addressing this for so long is creating a negative impression amongst users, and losing the value of this open-source project... JEdit itself is excellent, but its natural support has to be good too.

In firefox, drop downs are not legible. They are close to zero width. Simple CSS fix.

Sun, 19 Nov 2006 18:22:28 +0000

The community web site, for ages, has had drop downs that cannot be read, because their width is screwed up.

The problem is by the following CSS rule (around line 38 of style1.css)

.box * {
max-width: 100%; /* make sure textarea's and inputs do not overflow the containing box */
}

The * makes EVERYTHING have this max-width, and it is not needed.

Removing it sorts it out. If you really want this just for text areas and inputs, then use this:

.box textarea, .box input {
max-width: 100%; /* prevent overflow of the containing box */
}

This is critical, for it prevents using the web site effectively under Firefox (which I imagine is a LARGE audience for this site) because you can't read the drop downs. User participation will hopefully increase when this is done.

Caret Guide Colour should be selectable

Thu, 14 Sep 2006 08:43:30 +0000

I like the idea of the caret guide (it helps see alignment in block structured code), but I would like to make its colour customizable, so that I can make the colour nearly the same as the background. As it is right now, the colour of the caret guide is very different from my choosen text area background, and it is very distracting to always see that big vertical line moving over the text area while one is typing. If I could choose the colour by myself, I would use one which is less obnoxious.

jEdit Community now over 200 members

Fri, 26 Oct 2001 21:13:00 +0000

As our base of users increases, we hope to receive more contributions of news items, articles and downloads to share with everyone. There is an enormous amount of knowledge and sophistication among so many of our users. It would be terrrfic if you could spend a little time sharing it with others online. That's why we called it "jEdit Community".

As always, let us know if there is something you want to see added (or subtracted!) from the site, and especially if you would like to contribute content.
