I am running 4.3 pre16 with JDK 1.6.0_11

Most of the time everything works fine, but just today I have twice had the buffer switcher stop working.

I only have 4 or so files open. When I click on the switcher it drops down the list of files. I select one and the switcher updates to display that filename, but the buffer itself does not change. The previously selected file is still there.

If I use the CTRL-PGUP/PGDOWN shortcut it works fine. The problem is only when I use the drop-down.

Right now this issue appears to be random. I closed all of the files and reopened them and the problem went away for a while but within a few minutes, it was back.

I have since restarted the editor entirely. I will advise if it happens again or if I am able to narrow down a set of circumstances where the problem occurs.

Right now, I am just curious if anyone else has experienced this.

Thanks.

Hi there
After many good works my j-edit will not start. If i click to start, the start picture show how file which boot. At "run startup scripts" j--edit hang up and that's it. I must close the file by process manager.
Please help, because this is a good program.
German prefer...my english is...BAD

Many thanks and greetZ from Germany, Ingo

Has anyone had a problem with the Search window not opening in a multi-monitor environment under XP? I have had problems before with the Search dialog box coming up in odd sizes. That was solved by making sure the dialog was presented in the main monitor when it was closed. But now it doesn't seem to launch at all.

I have a new MacBook Pro and if I use the two finger scroll, the horizontal portion of the scrolling causes jedit to page up or page down in the document. This makes it almost impossible to use the trackpad to scroll, because unless it's perfectly vertical, it pages up or down randomly. Is there something I can do to turn off this behavior?

Hi, i'm using jedit within windows 7 beta. When i start jedit the whole system freezes. The only thing i can do is to press the power button in this case. jdk-version: java verson "1.6.0_12" Java SE Runtime Environment Java HotSpot Client VM Do you guys think it's the jdk version 1.6.0_12, or does anyone have experience running jedit with it? Or do you think it's the OS? ps.. i installed jedit with the native windows installer. should i try the installation based on JRE?

I'm using 4.3pre16 on OS X Tiger and it's been fine for ages, but now it's done all screwed up! When I start jEdit the startup pane gets stuck on 'run startup scripts'. jEdit pretty much loads, but only some of my views open (I had about 5 views open before). And if I try to create a new view I get an error (will paste the errors below).

It was doing this for a few days, and now it's got even worse... if I open the file system browser it just gets stuck trying to list the directories. And now jEdit wont even open files, it just fails to load them.

I haven't updated Java or jEdit, it just started going a bit nuts all by itself!

I know nothing about Java, so I'm hoping that someone else will be able to make more sense of these error messages than I can!..

Actually, I'll save them somewhere and link to them instead of pasting a whole load of crap here...

Any help, ideas or guidance greatly appreciated.

I'm trying out jedit 4.2final on OpenSUSE 10.3 and jedit takes forever to start (maybe tens of minutes). It looks like I've tried it with the java 1.5 and 1.6 runtimes
(1.5 initially, 1.6 currently based on running "java -version").

Also the one time I actually did anything with jedit I noticed the help was very unresponsive.

It seems to do okay on XP and OS X so I'm not quite ready to pitch it. But I think jedit is going to be a mostly linux app, for me.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what's going wrong (and how to fix it) or what I should do next to try to figure out this problem?

Also, is there a way to search these forums?

TIA
eric

PS I just started jedit ten minutes ago and I still haven't got past the splash screen. I think this is typical behavior (usually, I'll give it a (one) minute to start then kill it if it hasn't. I've done a lot of killing with jedit).

Hi, I'm new using Jedit, the best editor I've have found till now, but I have a little problem with the memory usage. Jedit (the javaw.exe process) reaches peaks of more than 175 mb of memory usage with just only one blank document opened. I first tryed it in a virtual machine with Windows Xp 32 bit and there the memory usage was more moderated (about 50 mb). Why this difference? Can I do something in Vista to reduce this ram usage? By other hand, the performance in Vista is much worst (for example when I scroll the contents in a document) than in Xp, how is this possible if it using much more resources in Vista?
Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi With the XML plugin installed, I can't have autocompletion while editing an XSLT file. I typed this: When I type "<" on the empty line, the menu appearing allows me to select a comment, CDATA block or a closing xsl:stylesheet tag. I supposed that XSLT autocompletion was built in the XML plugin. How comes I can't choose between the full set of first level elements allowed in this language? The worst part is that I used it a few years ago and it worked out of the box. Do I have a manipulation to do to allows the full autocompletion be performed?

Hello!

I have jEdit 4.3 pre 16 using Java 1.6.0_11

The list of recent files is working computer has not been shut down.
If I stop the computer, the list is empty.

Any help, thanks!

Alain

After upgrading JEdit to 4.3pre_16 I've noticed that the file list drop-down is no longer sorted alpbetically.
When Jedit starts, any files being reopened are sorted, but additionally opened files are placed at the end of the list.

This means that there is a mixture of sorted and unsorted files which is really bizarre and makes it hard to find files.
I'm pretty sure that files were immediately sorted alphabetically before.

I this a bug or has the behavious been changed deliberately?

Hi,

I wonder if someone could point me in the right direction please, I have been using jEdit for ages but since installing Eclipse (to try out Android SDK) everything in the TextArea now seems to be double spaced, infact everything text related now seems to have extra padding at the bottom. Nothing has changed with regard to my jEdit settings. I suspect it might be something Java related that's got installed along with Eclipse, but don't quite know where to start.

Before and after screenshots...

before: http://www.d4rr3ll.com/images/jedit/jedit.gif
after: http://www.d4rr3ll.com/images/jedit/jedit1.gif

I need to get it back to how it looked, as the double spacing is freaking me out.

Hopefully somebody can help.

Cheers

Hi,
I just upgraded from pre14 to pre16.
Selecting Docker/Toggle Docks now causes the follow exception.

update version.

Thanks in advance for your help,

In 4.3pre15 and 4.3pre16 when using split view, when I drag and drop a file into a view to open it, it switches both views to the same file. This only happens when dropping a file into the non-active view. Dropping a file into the active view just opens it in that view. I found bug 2321838 to be describing something similar, but it's been marked as fixed, so maybe it's not the same after all. Anyone know what might be causing this?

I'm running a Power PC Mac with OS X 10.4. jEdit is version 4.3pre16. Java is 1.5.0_16, which is unfortunately the latest version Apple have released.

I can't get jEdit to preserve the file owner on Linux when saving a buffer. The owner is always reset to my_user:my_group, while the file is initially owned by my_user:www_group. So now everytime I save a buffer in jEdit I have to do a chown, otherwise Apache won't be able to read the file.

Disabling or enabling the "two-stage save" feature doesn't seem to make any difference.

I use 4.3pre16, but I had the problem even before upgrading. I don't even know where to start troubleshooting this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

My knowledge is weak in the areas I am discussing, so please be patient.

I am running jedit under ubuntu 8.10. I have set my printer up with cups and it works well when I use lp to print. jedit won't print (fails silently). lpr doesn't work either. Helped by error messages that jedit produced when I tried to print prior to having installed lpr, I have concluded that:

1. jedit is using lpr
2. lpr is failing because I don't have an entry for my printer in termcap

Are these reasonable conclusions? Can I tell jedit to use lp instead of lpr? (I would prefer not to have to maintain printer definitions in both termcap and cups).

Thanks very much for your help.

Hello,

I have a small but difficult problem with my jEdit-editor. I use it now a
few years without big problems. But now it's a little bit more ...

I use it under linux (with windows too, but there are no problems), before with
Ubuntu 7.10, with sun java 5 or 6 (it makes no
difference for me for this problem). And - as german - I have german keypad with
"de-nodeadkeys"-config. With "CtrlAlt-Right 7" for example I get "{" and so one.

Now I changed to Ubuntu 8.10. And there, if I type "CtrlAlt-Right 7" I get "7"
instead of "{"! (it's not really good for programming ) Does anybody have
seen such behavior? It looks as it would ignore
"CtrlAlt-Right"-key. Other applications on this installation do not show such,
there all is fine.

I have tried 4.3pre15 and too 4.3pre13 from official ubuntu package servers.
Same thing. Every time fresh installed (e.g. no ~/.jedit directory) and no
plugins. I'm not sure, if Ubuntu 8.04 is ok or not. I had it only a short time
installed and havn't used jEdit much in this time. But I know, that Ubuntu 7.10
works fine with jEdit.

Maybe it depends on new X server, but I'm not sure and I don't know, how to catch
it. Anybody out there with some suggestions? Some comments in other boards suggests also, that something is broken with sun java under Ubuntu 8.10.

Greetings,
Thomas

I'm running a dual monitor setup using Windows Vista SP1 32-bit with a pair of 20" LCD monitors. Java version is JRE 6 update 10 and jEdit is 4.3pre15. On monitor 1 the jEdit window looks fine, but if I drag the window to monitor 2, at the point where more than 50% of the window is on monitor 2 the text area suddenly changes to show a small part of the file I am editing repeated over and over. If I drag the jEdit window back to monitor 1, as soon as more than 50% is on monitor 1 the window changes back to the correct display.

If you have a look at the screen dumps I have uploaded to http://www.users.on.net/~njpayne/stuff/monitor1.jpg and http://www.users.on.net/~njpayne/stuff/monitor2.jpg you can see what I mean.

The only plugin I've installed in addition to the default ones is LilyPondTool.

The only other Java application I use is Audiveris, and it works fine on either monitor. No other applications on the machine have any display problem on either monitor.

Works fine on XP, but on Vista this fails with an error messagebox: "C:\Program Files\jEdit\#Untitled-1#: Cannot save: java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Program Files\jEdit\#Untitled-1# (Access is denied)".

I can't see anywhere in Options to change the autosave path away from the Program Files dir. I have 4.3pre15 installed on Vista Business.
