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

Hi.

I have installed the XML and Sidekick plugins. When I open an XML file the Sidekick plugin says initially sayes "Not parsed" and I have to select "File->Reload" in order to get Sidekick to parse the file and display the document tree. This seems a bit odd, is there some way to make Sidekick parse the file the first time it is opened?

A related question. Is there an easy way to make the XML plugin reparse and re-validate the XML document? This only seems to happen when I reload the file.

I have the Console and FTP plugins, what i want to do is connect to my ssh server to upload download things, and also be able to use the command line to work on my ssh server (do it all from jedit instead of having to open another ssh console just for doing console commands)

is this possible in any way?

If I have a root file that uses a DTD file, and I have every chapter linked to their own files. What should I do to get the child files to use the same DTD file so XML Insert works??
Greatful for any answer...

Hi,
I'd like to be able to carry jEdit around on my thumb drive: complete with settings, plugins, etc. I noticed that you can change the jedit settings directory with a command-line option, like so:
jedit.jar -settings="c:\gabe\jedit_settings"

However I can't use an absolute path (the drive-letter assigned to my drive varies from machine to machine). Is there a way to specify a relative directory instead?

Thanks,
Gabe

I use jEdit in Windows XP & just found two screenshots in the ScreenShots section.
Can anyone answer me the following questions?

What is the font used in the following screenshot? Is it antialiasing? How to make it antialiasing?

And where to download the following screenshot's LookandFeel? Or what is the name of the LookAndFeel?

Sorry to bother, I have searched the JEdit help and the forum but haven't find any answer to the following issue:

When the wrap option is set, a long line is wrapped as expected if and only if it contains spaces.
If the typed line does not contain space characters (i.e. the line is a single and very long token) then it is not wrapped (i.e. it is necessary to use the horizontal scroller to see the tail of the line). Cheching and editing such a line without visual wrapping is awkward when the line is very long, e.g. the value of a PATH variable in a .chsrc file.

Is there any way to wrap the lines even if they don't contain spaces?

Thanks for your help!

Hi,

Is there a way to set the foreground or font color for both multiple and single selection?

What I'd like to do is make the background color dark blue, and the font color white.

Thanks,

I'm trying to add special coloring for #ifdef (etc.) in Python files. These constructions are not a part of standard Python, hence not included in the standard jEdit Python mode. That is, my intention is to use the built-in Python coloring for all the normal Python keywords etc., and to extend this by adding a different coloring for #ifdef etc.

I did the following: to my user's 'catalog' file (i.e. the one in c:\documents and settings\<username>\.jedit\modes) I added the following line:

<MODE NAME="python2" FILE="python.xml" FILE_NAME_GLOB="*.py" />

Then I created in that same directory a file python.xml, which leaving out the usual stuff has the following:

<RULES>
<IMPORT DELEGATE="python::MAIN"/>
<KEYWORDS>
<KEYWORD4>#ifdef</KEYWORD4>
</KEYWORDS>
</RULES>

(I tried to indent the above, but I'm not sure how to do that in this forum...) And of course I set a special color for KEYWORD4 in jEdit's Utilities | Global Options: Syntax Highlighting.

If I'm understanding the documentation in the jEdit Help, this is the recommended way to extend a built-in coloring.

But it doesn't work. That is, I don't get any special coloring for #ifdef, only the normal Python coloring.

I have ruled out a number of things that I could be doing wrong. Specifically, I get #ifdef colored appropriately (as KEYWORD4) if I leave out the <IMPORT DELEGATE> line--but then I of course don't get any of the normal Python coloring. I have also verified that there are no KEYWORD4 tags in the original (as-shipped) python.xml file.

So what am I doing wrong?

Hi all,

I am trying to find a plugin/macro to show (in the status bar) how many lines/characters are currently selected. I'm sure someplace I saw a plugin for that but now I cannot find it. Any ideas?

Also, I'd like an option to trim spaces (on save would be great), is that an option or plugin someplace?

Thanks,

I'd like the header of my printouts to include the entire path to the file, rather than just the filename. (I work on projects where many files have the same name.)

Is this possible with stock jEdit, or will I need to write a plugin to do this?

Feel free to move this to the Feature Requests forum if it fits better there...

It seems that when I make a new project or 're-import' the current project empty dirs are not included. I have not found an option for changing this behavior. Is this something that is wrong with my setup or am I just not finding the option I need to change. Any help or guidance would be much appreciated.
