I use docking for several plug-ins and have set some keyboard shortcuts to open proper plug-in windows (just like clicking on the plug-in's name in the docking strip). Now I wouldn't like to see the docking strip anymore (don't need it when I use keyboard shortcuts to access the plug-in windows). How can I hide it?

Is there any way to increase the spacing between lines in jedit? I think jedit is great, but find that the close-packing of the text gives me a bit of a headache when writing long documents ... For instance kwrite uses a slightly wider line spacing, which I think makes reading more comfortable. I think there is research to back up this idea that a reasonably wide line spacing makes reading easier.

Cheers,

Using Win 2K professional, jEdit 4.2. I've added -reuseview to the file association.
When a jEdit session is already running, dbl-clicking a file adds it to the view,
as would be expected. But if no jEdit session is running, dbl-clicking a file will
not start up a session if -reuseview is set.

- is this as expected?
- if so, is there a way I can start jEdit and open first file on the first dbl-
click, and open new files in same view with subsequent file dbl-clicks?

The Latex plugin can parse latex file structure with sidekick in release 4.2,
but it doesn't work in release 4.3pre2.

Hi there,
some of my php files don't get parsed by sidekick/phpparser.
Are there any rules I have to follow when writing php code to get it parsed?

Thanx,

My friends are making a live Linux distro for our faculty, and they need a good universal programming editor that is not too heavy for live distro. So I recommended jEdit with several plugins as a good choice. My friends are now fascinated with jEdit and it will be a default editor of new distro and a lot of students will use the best editor ever made.

How do I turn off auto-indent? Or better yet just stop it reindenting a line after the fact (except when there is nothing on the line to begin with).

Specifically, I'm coding in ruby right now which only occasionally uses {}, but almost invariably does something I don't want as soon as I type "{". I don't ever want it to reindent a line when I type "{". I do want it to indent on lines a "{". I do want it to unindent on an empty line when I type "}".

If I can't get good behavior, I would rather just turn off auto-indent.

I just downloaded 4.3pre2 and am still having indent problems (as I always have, but it is more pronouced in Ruby code).

Doesn't seem to be working at all. Just outputs a command line to the JDoc window in the plugin but doesn't seem to act on the command line. No error messages outputted.

Also the commandline has a trailing @ in front of the filenames to be javadoc'd.

Any ideas?

Hi there!

I've been using jEdit for a few years now, and I still consider it the most versatile editor I've ever used. Unfortunately, while I don't have any problem with it's somewhat massive footprint on my desktop, I've recently run into issues using it as an editor in remote sessions. Even without any additional plugins it takes around ten seconds to load jEdit on an SSH session with X11 tunnelling on a 100Mbit network. While this is perfectly OK if I've got a lot of editing to do, it makes it very painful to use as a general purpose text editor for smaller jobs. At the moment, I use nedit, which loads faster, but doesn't have nice features like multiple line editing with rectangular selection, or jEdits far superior find/replace.

Is there any way I can significantly lighten jEdit so that I can use it as a replacement to nedit? Or if that's too much like trying to fit a war elephant in a dog kenel, then can anybody recommend a good companion editor to jEdit? A lighter editor built with jEdit Syntax Package for instance?

Is it possible ?
More than ever I need to assign a hotkey (like Alt-r or Crtl-R or 2 close keys)
so can just press it to refresh the view of Jdiff just after I finish editing
a line. This a thing I do 100 % of the time. If it could be set to automatically
refresh wow !
Anyway, I'll be very happy with CTRL-something or Alt-Something

Thanks

Hi all -

I'm a jedit newbie, and I've looked through the FAQ, as well as the wiki but couldn't find a simple answer to this question: "How can I use Anti-Alias fonts in jedit on Linux?"

It strikes me that jedit is a wonderful tool, but I can't see past the pervasively horrible font rendering. Program menus, dialog boxes, and of course the main edit window - the horrible java font rendering looks very much out of place on my KDE 3.4 desktop. In Utilities->Global Options->Text Area I have selected "Smooth Text" as well as "Fractional font metrics", which is a tremendous improvement, but the fonts still don't seem as good as in any KDE app. If I run 'kate' next to 'jedit' both using 'Monospaced', the rendering in 'kate' is much better.

I am using jedit4.2final on gentoo-64, with blackdown-jdk-1.4.2.01 as the java back-end.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

One feature in Notepad++ I really liked that I can't figure out how to duplicate in JEdit was the ability to set the font of certain syntatically-highlighted elements to a different font face than the default for the document.

For instance: variable-width font for literals, monospaced for operators and functions, maybe a serif font for comments and so on.

With the new indent engine can JEdit support the coding style where the '{}' line up with the body rather then the if/do/for/while ??

i.e.
if( x==1 )
{
// Body
}
