I briefly checked the CVS, but I couldn't reallt find the answer to my questions: How are the rolling credits in the about dialog done? Java2D or some external library?

Thanks!

hi, i downloaded jedit 4.2 and loaded the sources into eclipse 3.0.1. i mentioned, that for a error free compilation there are some packages missing. why are they not included into the scr? can somebody tell me where to download these missing packages. it's something about com.apple and also com.sun.javadoc, as I found out. this is my first try to compile such a project, so i'm a newbie. regards.

Hi, I want to highlight [a-zA-Z]+Exception ...

I have the following on 3 separate lines in many, many files. So, I want to Search and Replace with regular expressions. Here are the lines:
< td >< img src="/theme/images/mainmenu-left-off.gif" alt="[" >< /td >
< td background="/theme/images/mainmenu-background-off.gif" >< span class="menu_lower" >< a href="/foo//links/" >Bar< /a >< /span >< /td >
< td >< img src="/theme/images/mainmenu-right-off.gif" alt="]" >< /td >

My regular expression can't find the above, and I don't understand why, any suggestions:

\s*\S*< td >< img src="/theme/images/mainmenu-left-off.gif" alt="[" >< /td >\r*\n*\s*\S*< td background="/theme/images/mainmenu-background-off.gif" >< span class="menu_lower" >< a href="foo" >Bar< /a >< /span >< /td >\r*\n*\s*\S*< td >< img src="/theme/images/mainmenu-right-off.gif" alt="]" >< /td >

Thank you. Sorry, the above code looks dirty. I tried < code > and < ? php > here so it would cleanly post, but those input formats are not available. I had to add a space after every < and before every > . This message is difficult to read .

We develop an other java editor. Now we are using the mode-Files of jedit.
Is this ok for you?

I'm developing a web application using JSP/Servlets and I really like jEdit's help interface. I'd like to seperate it from jEdit and convert it into a servlet. I downloaded the source code, but all I can find are the XML/HTML help files, not the Java source. Could someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,
Ben

Hi All,

it has been some weeks now JEdit 4.2 was released. When will be the next release ? Any hints ?

KS

it could be a good idea to have a guide or tutorial about creating SQL Server Types for the SQL Plugin, and add the FirebirdSQL Server Type for the SQL Plugin please.

API changes for v 4.2 include the following:

>The org.gjt.sp.jedit.syntax package can now be used in other programs.
>All you need to provide is error handling and logic for locating the
>XML mode files. See the package documentation for details

I don't really understand how I can use the package in my own program.
The comments within the API doc are pretty short :-|
Do I just have to use my own JEditTextArea instance? Maybe some of you
have already tried this feature and could give me some advice.

Many Thanks,
Felix

I think moving the build system over to maven will make a lot of difference.

I think moving the build system over to maven will make a lot of difference.

I made a plugin that I use myself for a while.
Now I would like to bring it into the CVS, so
I follow the instructions and ask Slava and M.Dillon
to add my ID in order to get access to the CVS and
have no reply from them. What is going on? What am
I doing wrong?

Hello,
i'm using a java-editor-application developed for my own needs.

Now i'm interested in migrating from JEditPane to JEditTextArea. And now the question: is there anywhere a documentation if there are incompatibilites between these two components.

I've read, that there will be a stand-alone component of the JEditTextArea. Is this right? And if yes, when do you think, will it be published.

Is there also a possibility to take the syntax-highlighting and add it to a standard JEditPane without using JEditTextArea? The Syntax-Highlighting found at http://syntax.jedit.org/ is a little bit out of date, so this isn't interesting to me.

The highlighting as a bean, that could be plugged in a JEditPane would be really great. Are there any ideas, if that's possible?

Thanks for your help! Kind regards......

Hello,

I discovered jEdit a few days and wonder what are the programming softwares used to design and develop it : IDEs, tools, WYSIWYG dialog editors (if any)...

Once upon a time...

In 1998 I bought a book to learn Java as we had an applet development class at the university. I got [i]Teach yourself Java 1.2 in 21 days[/i] by Laura Lemay and Rogers Cadenhead. As I had a C/C++ background, once the class was over, I gave up on learning Java and went back to my good old Microsoft Visual Studio, MFC (Microsoft/C++ GUI programming libraries like AWT/Swing). A few days ago I asked on Usenet if someone knew a good editor to replace my good-old but buggy NoteTab Light (improved Notepad, text editor). Someone adviced me to try jEdit.

At first I thought that jEdit was just an other boring programming editor. But I quickly checked out the main website and community... It really reminded me of HTML-Kit, one of my favourite web design & development tool. Plugins, manuals, forums, you name it. To say the least, I'm impressed. I know a few other Java softwares but none of them is as well polished, designed, extensible and powerful as jEdit. The plugin manager is terrific as it allows you to extend jEdit from the editor itself, read the descriptions, select the one you want to download and install... Done in a few minutes. I got the BufferTabs plugin and even if jEdit doesn't seem to remember that the plugin was checked (I have to check it each time I launch jEdit), it works like a charm. I was also able to switch from one look & feel to the other, Windows look & feel is just as good as the MFC one. Last but not least I didn't even know that Java has its own Microsoft HTMLHelp (chm).

So as a poor lonesome Microsoft Visual Studio/MFC user and developer, I wonder what are the softwares used to design and develop jEdit. What are the IDEs that can be compared to Microsoft Visual Studio ? A tool that would allow me to design dialogs using WYSIWYG and powerful tools, debugger, profiler, all jEdit features... and more ? I know jEdit has some good plugins to debug and stuff but I don't think I can design dialogs, menus, software interfaces, using jEdit. Am I right ?

I only know a few IDEs and can't really try them all. I know Eclipse but for what I know, there's no dialog editor.

End of story, bye bye (Shrek ^^).

Last but not least, do you know of any good books to learn jEdit-like software design and development ? I found hundreds of books about Java development but I can't believe I have to read them all to develop a single software. I got 2 MFC books to learn MFC and Windows software development, it was far sufficient.

Thanks for your time and help,
JM

JEditSyntax on syntax.jedit.org is much outdated now, though usable (with two deprecated methods). Will current jedit syntax be available as separate component? Looking into current source, it looks like JEditTextArea is highly integrated into JEdit application - I guess there's not much folks who would want to make changes just for JEditTextArea was available as bean..

I am evaluating jEdit as a possible text editor for one of my applications. But I can't see any documentation on that. Could anyone point me to any earlier attempts and/or documentation that could help me.

I don't want to rewrite syntax colouring, undo/redo support, access to file system from scratch!
