I am trying to import in abbreviations using the "Import from file" feature of SuperAbbrevs but I can't get it to work. Can anyone give some direction for this and how the import file should be laid out/formatted?

jEdit version 4.3pre9.
SuperAbbrevs version 0.25

Thanks,
Troy

Hi all,

according to jEdit's help, under "Searching For Text":
"Selecting the Regular expressions check box allows a regular expression to be used in the search string. Regular expressions can match inexact sequences of text that optionally span more than one line."

However, I can't seem to find an option to prevent multi-line matches. Is there something I'm missing? I suppose I could explicitly change the search string to prevent newlines from being matched, but that seems like a rather painful approach for what I find to be a common need.

jEdit version is 4.3pre9.

Thanks, Trent.

I'm moving my settings to a new computer and would like to manually edit my Favorites so they work on the new machine. I found the XML files for the Project Viewer plug-in, but can't figure out where Favorites are saved. One post I found said they were in the settings folder in a file called "properties", but I have no such file (using 4.3pre9). Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

Apparently Java is the deafult case. I have no problem when working with a "foo.java" file to insert a "line comment". Then "//" appears correctly in front of the selected line.
However, when I try to do same for a "foo.f90" file, jEdit ignores the command (instead of inserting "!").

My setup for the editing dialog: (with WindowsXP)
Utilities/Global Options/jEdit/Editing/Change Settings for mode: fortran
File name glob: *.f90
Default edit mode: fortran
Then push buttons: Apply & OK

Then from the "Edit" drop-down menu:
Edit/Source/Line Comment

Result on the highlighted line: command IGNORED
Although, as I said, with a Java file I had no problem doing the same.

Why?

First-time user.

I'm trying to find the way to modify the curly brace behavior so it doesn't constantly tab my hash/array/function blocks. I've found all kinds of key behavior in the Utilities -> Global Options -> Shortcuts section, but don't see where the curly brace behavior is coming from. It's really annoying. Something like this is almost impossible to type into jedit.

part_type_info = { 'to' => { 'optlist' => "fontname=optima fontsize=12 encoding=unicode " +
"fillcolor={gray 0} alignment=justify leading=120%",
'caption_part' => false } }

Everytime I type an open set of curly braces, it lines up where it thinks it should and I have to then space it myself. I just want the curly braces to not do anything, I can format the code myself.

Thanks in advance...

Is it possible to set specific encoding per page?
I am working on more than one project at a time and some of them are utf-8 some are windows-1251. I have set up utf-8 as my default encoding, but when i open one of the other projects that uses windows-1251 i have to change the encoding to windows-1251 and then close(without saving) and reopen the file for the encoding to take place(if i forget and save the file with the incorrect encoding all non ASCII characters are screwed).
I wonder if it is possible to set some associations 'folder - encoding' and when opening file jedit checks whether the file is in one of these directories and opens it with the specified for that folder encoding.
So is there such functionality or plugin for jedit?
If not i would like to make that a request. If i had any kind of java experience i would do a plugin myself but i don't - i will have to learn java and jedit plugin architecture, while someone with experience in jedit plugin development will probably be able to do it in an hour.
Thank you

Is there a way to have jedit run an application in the background launching it from jedit? I normally have to open apache and jedit to work on PHP things, It would be cool to have apache open/close buttons inside jedit to use apache as it's needed all within the same thing.

I am a recent jEdit convert. I come from a world of other text editors (like Ultraedit) where each mode has its own syntax highlighting color assignments. So for example, when viewing a PHP file, my background is blue, strings are red, comments are green etc... But then when viewing Python, all those things are different colors.

So I was wondering if there are any plugins or anything that allows you to automatically switch colors whenever you switch modes? The closest thing I can find is this plugin called "Editor Scheme Selector". I allows you to save/load color schemes (for the TextArea, Syntax colors and Gutter). So I save different color schemes and have to manually switch between them when I swap modes.

So anyways, is it possible to do what I am wanting?

Hi all

How to Add a new Source Control System First add the system type to the SourceControl.props file in the key... options.sourcecontrol.sctypes

• I've found the file.
• I put CS-RCS as the entry.
• Am I on the right track?

Then create a class that implements the com.sgbarlow.sourcecontrol.SourceControlInterface interface. Your class must have name equal to the name you give your Source Control system with the spaces removed and Impl added to the end. i.e. MS Visual Source Safe becomes MSVisualSourceSafeImpl

• This has me stumped.
• Where do I create this class?
• Do I match the type?
• The repository says it is SCC API.
• Do I use that?
• If some one has done this before, I sure could use some help.

Thanks George M$ XP, Sony Vaio.

Hi,

I installed jEdit 4.3 pre 9 on my laptop and chose the option to start the jEdit server with Windows, which turned out to take a while, and most of the times that I turn on the laptop I don't use jEdit. Is there a way to turn this off or do I need to uninstall / reinstall jEdit?

Thanks,

Sergei

I was hoping to write a new edit mode for jEdit for UniBasic based off of one I have for UltraEdit. UltraEdit supports automatic capitalization, so I can type in "next" and when I press space or type in a symbol, it will automatically capitalize it to "NEXT". This helps me type code much faster, since I hate holding down shift and UniBasic requires capitalization on its flow control statements, reserved words, etc.

Is there any way that automatic capitalization can happen with an edit mode, or is there a plugin that already handles something like this? I did look through the plugin descriptions on the plugin manager, but none seemed to fit the use I have.

I haven't noticed this until a couple months ago, that after I log into our SFTP server I get a login message. I have always seen it when I log in via command line but not with jEdit.

I don't see a way to disable the login message through menu options.

Is there any other way I can get rid of the login message? The plugin itself is unhackable to me.

Tanx!

I'm new to jedit. I change the global options (font etc.), edit files, and exit. When I bring up jedit again it has gone back the default options not mine. How do I make it save my options? I didn't see anything about saving options in faq or guide, so I assume it should be automatic. I'm using the latest on windows.

I downloded and installed JEdit in windows xp 2003 server but I can't figure out the way of compiling and geting the output of java files from inside JEdit
pl's let me Know this
Thanks Varuna
