I'm a brand new user and quite ignorant. I've installed the mode for Stata, it appears in the list of modes and I even selected it as the default mode. Yet special formatting and highlighting of text doesn't seem to be turned on. I've looked at the help files but haven't made any progress resolving this. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

I've just tried the MATLAB mode for jEdit, and I can't get the auto-indent to work properly. I think it's because some of the XML is out of date and no longer supported: I don't think 'indentPrevLine' is a valid property any longer. I think that the correct property to use would be 'indentNextLines' for MATLAB, since there are no curly braces around code blocks, only an if, while, else, etc, followed by an 'end'.

My question is: how do I decrease the indent when an 'end' statement is encountered?

Hi all, Since installing jEdit recently I've been experiencing a problem when jEdit starts. The first time I launch jEdit after a reboot all seems well. However, often if I close jEdit and then reopen it later, it will hang for 30 seconds after the splash screen. During this period absolutely everything freezes - any music playing stops and my mouse cursor is immovable. When jEdit finally loads I'm left with a totally unusable GUI. I'm relatively new to jEdit so I really have no idea how to figure out what is causing the problem. Just in case it's relevant, here's some extra info:

• Plugins being used
• activity.log

I'm using Sun's 'jre1.6.0' and also tried 'jre1.5.0_06' - both yield the same results. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as I'm totally stumped. Thanks in advance, Ant.

Hi all,

I have been using jEdit on Linux for over a year. I recently got a MacBook Pro.

I have a problem on the Mac that did not exist on Linux. When I switch to jEdit from another application (it can be cmd+tab or mousing) the arrow keys do not work. If I type a character they then begin to work.

The only plugins I have installed (beyond defaults) are Buffer Tabs and FTP.

If anyone can help me find the problem I would appreciate it.

Hai,
Iam using jedit to edit my Apache VM file which they reside in remote server.
Sometimes when i try to save the file it cant be saved

Error Message

Rename failed.IO Opeartion can be done at a time only one buffer(file)
then java.io.IOEception is thrown.

Why it occurs ?
Will anyone help me for this issue?

Iam using windows 2000,Java version is 1.4.2.1

Anyone have any good ideas to start with a syntax

Thanks for any replies

I've been using NetBeans and I'm really sick of it. I want to try something different, and I really like using JEdit for all my other stuff. I've got the hang of Java, but Netbeans does most of the compiling and stuff for you. I cant get the compiler to work for me at all. This is the error I keep getting....

Hey!

i want to use a boolean after checking

Hello. JIndex 1.1 does not work on my JEdit 4.3pre2 of 4.2. When I configure it, the index construction takes (I think) too little time and when I try to look for documentation I receive an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException. Is this a JIndex bug or what... Do you have successfully configured it on any of these JEdit versions?
Thanks for your help.

Hi!

When I browse a bibtex database with the bibtex navigator, only the "Ref" field is shown. The other columns (Title, Author, Journal) remain empty. I tested this also with the test.bib from tetex, but it is the same there.

I am using jEdit 4.2 with LatexTools 0.5.2 on Ubuntu Linux (Sun SDK 1.5).

I hope anyone can help me with that, I'd really like to use jEdit for texing.

Regards,
Frederik

Hi,

I'm trying to clean up a document that was automatically converted to LaTeX. The document contains strings like these:

"(\textit{sahaprat}\textit{ī}\textit{tiniyama}). [Reply:] Not even for the piece of ground and the pot is it like this! However, the fact that, if both exist, there is no restriction of the cognition to [only] one image (\textit{ekar}\textit{ū}\textit{papratī}\textit{tiniyamaviraha}),"

(never mind the meaning )

The idea is to get rid of all the unnecessary instances of \textit{}. So I thought to search for instances of \textit{} that immediately follow one another.

I entered this in the (regexp) search box: \\textit\{(.*?)\}\\textit\{(.*?)\}
and tried replacing it with: \\textit\{$1$2\}

The problem is that the stingy operator ("?") is not stingy enough: apparently the search function looks forward for the second instance of italicization *somewhere* in the document; it doesn't look for instances of *contiguous* italics.

Thus, the regexp also finds:

\textit{some italicized stuff} Oh and here is lots of writing in between! This should not be part of what is found, but it is! \textit{next italicized stuff}.

Somehow I can't bring myself to believe that this is how the regexp should be understood. Or am I barking up the wrong tree?

I also tried a positive lookahead \\textit\{(.*?)\}(?=\\textit\{(.*?)\}), but this produced the same unwanted results.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated,



Thanks in advance,

best regards,

Hi,
I am using Ubuntu Linux (Latest Stable Core). I installed java software development kit from sun and now it is time to configure jedit. I got all the plugins needed for developing java applications and it seems to be working fine as well. Everything compiles fine but doesn't run fine. If I make helloWorld application in java using jedit, that works fine and displays the correct result but if I try to use joptionpane like JOptionPane.showMessageDialog (null, "Hello World!"); then I get following error message in jedit console screen. Also the code I used has no errors (It has been compiled before in windows).

** ERROR **: file ../../../src/libjava/jni/gtk-peer/gnu_java_awt_peer_gtk_GtkImage.c: line 572 (createRawData): assertion failed: (data_fid != 0)
aborting...
Process java exited with code 134

I'm unable to find out why this happens as I'm new to linux. Please any help appreciated.
N.B: Sorry for double posting, but this post belongs to troubleshooting.

Sometimes i cannot type in the "File name" field of the save or save as dialog. Selecting text in the field with the mouse does work. But the input field acts as if it was in "read only" mode. Jedit does not give any error message/exception. Also nothing in the activity log. Restarting jedit usually fixes the problem for the next few saves. This is very annoying.

I'm running jedit 4.3pre3 with java jre 1.5.0_05 on kubuntu breezy badger.

Any suggestions on how to fix this problem appreciated.
Thank you.

I recently installed JEdit 4.3pre3 and of course the important ConsolePlugin. Together with ErrorListPlugin, compiling my C/C++ programs works like a charm. Except for one point: sometimes when running make console marks the wrong lines. E.g. the output looks like:

mkformular.c: In function `add_elementlist':
mkformular.c:994: warning: int format, long unsigned int arg (arg 4)
mkformular.c:994: warning: int format, long int arg (arg 5)
mkformular.c:1007: warning: int format, long int arg (arg 4)
Updating version number in version.c
Compiler Run #2343

Consequently, ErrorListPlugin only mentions two of these three warnings. I don't know whether ErrorList has a problem as with having multiple warnings occuring on the same line. Anyway, if I paste this output into the Test Area on Plugin Options > Console > Error Patterns pane of the Generic error pattern it correctly extracts and displays all three warnings. My problem now is:

• Why does the test show ok, but the real output not?
• Why does error parsing not work at all when I copy the above text to a file an then run cat file on the console?

Help please! I've enjoyed using jEdit under OS-X but I suddently cannot open files from the command line and I don't know how to troubleshoot this.

For months I've been using this csh alias to open files in jEdit from the command line:

je: aliased to open -a ~/Applications/jEdit\ 4.2/jEdit.app !*

For example:
csh: je junk.txt

This suddenly stopped working. jEdit will start but will not load the specified file. Of course our system adminstrator installs software updates from Apple all the time, but I can't tell whether this is a failure of Apple's "open" command or a failure of jEdit. Has anyone else seen this problem?


If I explicitly run the jEdit executable like this:

~/Applications/jEdit\ 4.2/jEdit.app/Contents/MacOS/JavaApplicationStub junk.txt

then it mistakenly starts a NEW file named junk.txt in the jEdit install directory.

Only if I give the full path to the existing file will it open it:

~/Applications/jEdit\ 4.2/jEdit.app/Contents/MacOS/JavaApplicationStub ~/junk.txt

Any help is much appreciated.

File ~/.jedit/history is no longer being updated between sessions, though it is still read at startup.

Permissions are OK, and other settings files (eg activity.log) _are_ being updated OK.

Any advice/suggestions appreciated!

Greetings,

I am a longtime jEdit fan, and I recently decided to move from 4.2 to 4.3pre3. Today I needed to look at some Java code that I did not have the source files for, and found that it would not work. I used the "Archive" plugin to browse a jar file, and "JavaInsight" to do a jode-decompile. This latter operation errored out. I had prviously updated all of the plugins that needed to be upgraded, but Archive and JavaInsight were not on the list. Details are included below. Thanks!

Hi,

This is my first post here, but I'm a long time jEdit user. What a great piece of software! Thanks to its many authors and contributers

The problem:
When I use the Console in System mode to execute commands, the output of these commands has its accents and other extended characters replaced by squares. I'm under Windows XP Pro, French. The output of the commands is in french.
Under "standard" dos box in WinXP, I sometimes have to change the codepage to 1252 ("Windows" Latin 1) or UTF-8 (cp 65001) and choose the correct font to get readable output.

But changing the codepage under the jEdit console is useless, since it is done by the chcp command, and every Console command is executed in its own "shell", so any previous codepage change is not reflected on subsequent commands.

It seems the default encoding for the executed commands is 850, but that doesn't match the display in the jEdit Console (is it UTF-8 ?).

Is there a way to change the encoding of the Console ?
Or am I wrong about the cause of this problem? Is there a solution?

Thanks.
Ced
