Default character set (encoding) per server
Submitted by 1234ru on Wednesday, 15 June, 2011 - 12:30
Hi, guys.

I'm enjoying using jEdit and wanted to know one thing.

I work with many remote servers which often have files in different encodings.

Can I somehow determine default encoding per server?
Drag and drop
Submitted by Perkin5 on Tuesday, 7 June, 2011 - 17:42
I have just started using jEdit and love it but I'm having trouble with drag and drop. If I drag an image into the text area, I don't get the same effect as with, say, Dreamweaver, where an img src code snippet appears in the text.

Is that meant to happen and what am I doing wrong?

Is there any way to vertically align code by any character such as equals and period?
How to code fold so that it also folds the comments that are inside the fold?
Submitted by rickcr on Wednesday, 25 May, 2011 - 15:05
I have folding set to 'sidekick.' In a javascript file if I have

function foo() {
/*
bla
bla
*/
}

it shows the fold for foo() but when clicked it doesn't hide the comments. since the comments are inside the function I'd expect them to be hidden also. How can I achieve this?

Thanks
Leaving in leading whitespace when breaking text line
Submitted by rps on Saturday, 21 May, 2011 - 11:33
I'm a new jEdit user and have just run across a "feature" that is causing me problems. When I position into a line of text containing space characters, with the cursor positioned immediately before a space charcter and then hit ENTER to break the line, the leading spaces (regardless of how many space characters there are) are removed from the new line. I work in a transaction processing environment and often have to parse message trace logs where space characters are just as important as any other character. How to I get jEdit to leave the spaces in the new line?

Synchronized Scolling?
Submitted by CJreige on Thursday, 21 April, 2011 - 19:23
Hi.

Does anyone know of a plug-in that will do the following? I'd like to split the screen vertically into two panes. I want to see the 'same' file in both panes. In the left pane I want to see the first xx number of lines. In the right pane I want to see the same file but starting at xx + 1. When I scroll, both panes would scroll together. Basically, I want a second pane to show the 'overflow' lines from the first pane.

Thank you,
CJ.
In a Search RegEx - how do I specify where the Caret goes?
Submitted by FatDog on Thursday, 21 April, 2011 - 15:19
I am looking for strings like:

"The Angry Squrl" [1/8]

I know how to do the RegEx - but when I search - the Caret is left at the beginning of the matched string. I want the Caret to be in a specific place so I can add things.

In the above example - I need the caret to be before the "[" character.

Is there a special character I can put into a search string that tells Jedt where to put the Caret if found?

My RegEx that finds the string is as follows:

\w+"\s+\[\d

Is it a bug for code completing?jEdit 4.3
Submitted by daition on Saturday, 16 April, 2011 - 08:33
Hi all,
I'm a newbie to jEdit, I like it very much except the feature - code complete. Here is the problem I met.

I've installed both SideKick and JavaSideKick. When I type in a dot after the name of a class or an object, only class methods are shown. Eg.When I typed in "System.", all the methods of class "System" will be shown; however, when I typed in "JFrame a = new JFrame()" and "a.", nothing was shown.

Could anyone give any hint? Or is it a bug for jEdit plugins?

Thanks in advance!
Autoclose Brackets
Submitted by CJreige on Saturday, 16 April, 2011 - 02:31
Hi everybody.

I think this has been asked before but I need to make double sure. Is there a setting (or plugin) that will autoclose brackets, braces, & parentheses? I've seen a couple of forum responses that suggest using abbreviations. I don't want this solution as I'd have to either use the space bar or c+;. I use jEdit as my principle tool for coding. It'd be great to have this small feature added.
Ctagsinterface: including arguments of tagged functions in tooltips?
Submitted by tp21 on Monday, 11 April, 2011 - 12:07
Is this possible through ctags invocation options possibly? Apologies if that's a stupid question. A feature request there's no way at the mo? Would be lush.

Python and JPyDebug Config
Submitted by flebber on Friday, 8 April, 2011 - 10:39
Can I ask a little advice on configuration of Python for Jedit? I have installed JPyDebug as I found it a suggested plugin in another thread. It is installed but how do I actually configure it to work, as I am not quite sure on how to get it working?

Is there anything else that should be installed to make Jedit a productive environment? is there a stylecop or Pylint feature?

Thanks

search shortcut
Submitted by sebo on Thursday, 7 April, 2011 - 09:25
Hello,

I'm new to jedit. I was using ultraedit before... I was used to perform a search usign key F3 whenever a word was selected.
How to configure jedit to do that?

So far, I have to use Ctrl-F and paste the word I want to search into.

thanks.

ClojureShell classpath
Submitted by messinm on Saturday, 2 April, 2011 - 11:59
I'd like to change the classpath that ClojureShell uses to start the REPL. Is there a way to do this? The Clojure plugin allows for the user to select the classpath through the clojure commando, and I thought this would be used by ClojureShell, but it appears that ClojureShell uses a classpath that only includes clojure and clojure-contrib.
Change the syntax highlighting language
Submitted by Ayken on Tuesday, 29 March, 2011 - 09:43
Hey All!

How can I set the syntax highlighting language in jEdit?

It sometimes happens that autodetection of language fails, so I would like to explicitly set the language. Is that even possible in jEdit?

Notepad++ has a self-obvious "Language" menu, where I can choose from the list of all supported languages, and set the syntax highlighting to that. Does jEdit have something similar?
shifting a block of text
Submitted by 999alfred on Friday, 25 March, 2011 - 04:48
Is it possible to "shift" a rectangular block of text?
What I mean is I select a rectangle start at say column 20 and running to column 30 and encompasses 20 lines and then I want to move it two tabs right, hit tab twice. Now If I try this my text is deleted. If I 'cut' the text, tab over and paste it puts the first line there, but all the descending lines are placed at the left edge and all the text originally between the text and the left margin is moved below the pasted test.

How do I all of it tab'ed over and not delete my text? Is it possible?
