Keybindings Save, Print...
Submitted by Anonymous on Tuesday, 1 February, 2005 - 22:05
Hey,

would it be possible to open/save the whole keybinding and to print it?
then we would quickly have emacs, vi, etc. keybindings!

and printing shortcuts is good for people not yet accustomed to them.
maybe some macro can do the job?

It would be nice if we could assign different fonts to different scripts.
ability to sort by columns in File System Browser
Submitted by paulflory on Friday, 28 January, 2005 - 05:05
A request: to be able to click on the columns in the FSB to sort the dirs/files by name, type, size, status, and last modified.

First click on a column heading (like Size) would sort one way, say ascending; a second click on the same heading would sort in the opposite order (descending).

Would others find this useful, or useless?

Thanks,
Paul
Delete of directories in VFS file browser
Submitted by Anonymous on Thursday, 27 January, 2005 - 12:26
The VFS file browser does not allow me to delete non empty directories. I very useful feature would be if jedit could ask if I would like to delete the directory including its content. Current error message I get is: "The following I/O operation could not be completed: Cannot delete file."
Search for whole word only?
Submitted by Anonymous on Wednesday, 26 January, 2005 - 22:31
It would be VERY nice if I could easily search just for a string that is an entire word, and not possibly embedded in another word. For instance, in this mode, searching for 'it' should not match the word 'hit', just the word 'it'. Other editors (UltraEdit, NEdit) have a button called 'whole word only' or some such, on their search dialog. As it is, in jedit, I have to use a regular expression, and surround the word with \b characters.
can jedit add debugging feathure?

A Console Commando should remember its settings
Submitted by Sasq on Monday, 24 January, 2005 - 07:46
It would make my life much easier if the the variables you change in the Commando GUI to execute a command was remembered between invocations - it takes time to (for instance) change from Release to Debug or changing the make rule every time you compile your project.
can the buffer switcher bar be customed?
Submitted by Anonymous on Sunday, 23 January, 2005 - 09:24
Since there are plugin for switching between buffer, if we use those plugin and the buffer swicher bar is always there I think it wasted the screen space. I suggest the buffer switcher can be customed to be enable and disable.
can jedit be made as a green software?
Submitted by Anonymous on Sunday, 23 January, 2005 - 09:10
I found that the files of jedit are located in ~/.jedit and the install directory. But a problem occurs when I use jedit in my school. After I logout the computer will reset everything of the computer including the home directory. So the setting is lost. Is it possible to make jedit place everything inside the install directory?
Auto "un-indent" (for keywords)
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 21 January, 2005 - 01:49
See http://community.jedit.org/?q=node/view/1935

I'd like an automatic "un-indent" next lines feature based on keywords. (Like UltraEdit has)
e.g typing "ENDIF" will cause that line, and subsequent lines to be un-indented.
This will be handy for several programming languages that don't use C-like structures using brackets, instead just using keywords to enclose IF, FOR etc. statements.
right-to-left paragraph direction
Submitted by Anonymous on Thursday, 20 January, 2005 - 17:36
The possibility of changing paragraph direction from left-to-right to right-to-left will be a welcome addition for those of us who use jEdit for editing right-to-left languages like Hebrew and Arabic.

Mail quote
Submitted by weberjn on Tuesday, 18 January, 2005 - 15:19
It were nice to have text quote and unquote on selections:

example
Edit->Text->Quote
> example
Edit->Text->Unquote
example

Unquote is especially useful to restore a several times quoted mail text:

>>>> Please restore
>>>> this

Please restore
this


Thx,
Juergen
Bracket matching in syntax highlighting
Submitted by assaph on Wednesday, 12 January, 2005 - 01:31
Hi,

To support Ruby features of code-within-strings, will it be possible to have bracket matching in the syntax highlighting?

e.g.

there's no problem with:
"some text #{ embedded code evaled to string}"
but this will confuse the parser:
"some text #{ "#{code in string within code}" if condition }"
the parser will terminate the first opening bracket with the first closing one, regardless of the nested scope.

Cheers and thanks for a great editor,
Assaph
Copy Text selection to Clipboard
Submitted by bz3p19 on Thursday, 6 January, 2005 - 15:18
Hi,

I think it would be pretty cool to have a setting where you can enable all text selected to be automatically put into the clipboard, similar to Putty funcionality.

Thanks,
James

keep text selection when switching buffers
Submitted by Anonymous on Tuesday, 21 December, 2004 - 19:23
When I select text in buffer "A", switch to buffer "B" and back to "A", the selection disappears. It is really annoying Sad
Could it be fixed in next realease of jEdit pls?
proper bidi support
Submitted by Anonymous on Sunday, 19 December, 2004 - 15:57
As not being a Java developer, I don't know if adding BiDi support can be done in Java, or not yet.

I'm using jEdit for all my code-writing needs, and I wish it can support BiDi to allow me to write/edit Arabic.
Currently, with 4.2, I'm able to write Arabic, but it doesn't align properly with other english text.
also, If I tried to select any word of the arabic sentence, the selection doesn't seem to select the word highlighted, so when I begin typing to edit the selected word, it actually edits a completely different word.

Cheers,
