currently, I use mouse click to switch to different split windows within Jedit, is there a keyboard shortcut I can use to do that?

Thanks.

the default directory of console is the jedit's parent directory.
Is there a way to change this and set the default path to the parent directory of the current buffer?, this would by useful to run ruby scripts.

thanks in advance

Hi,

I searched a little bit but could not find the option to disable this feature. Any hint?
thanks

I have some files that contains sensitive information and I would like to save them encrypted.

I use JEdit with openSSH to retrieve files from a server and I am wondering if there is a way I could use that feature to save sensitive file locally.

Any suggestions?

Hi!

When I'm editing a file (even a newly-created one), whatever non-standard characters (e.g. é, á, ü, ö, etc) I type, it's only a small square displayed in place of them. If I edit an existing file and then save it, the non-standard characters get messed up in it (shown as '?' if I look at them with another editor).

This is the command I run jedit with:
.../java/jdk/1.5.0_09/bin/java -Xmx512m -jar /home/agoston/jedit/4.2/jedit.jar $@ 2>/dev/null >/dev/null
(But it behaves the same way with other JVM versions.)

I'm working on SUSE Linux 10.1.

Some relevant settings:
Utilities / Global options / general /
default character encoding: ISO-8859-1 (but there's no difference in behaviour if I set it to e.g. UTF-8)
Auto-detect file encoding when possible: YES

Any idea on how to get jedit to get non-ISO-8859-1 characters right?

Thanks!

Hello, I have troubles setting up the code completion feature of Javasidekick. Could someone with more experience than me please explain how to do it? I have ProjectViewer and Javasidekick installed. I tried the following code:

String word = "word";
word.

When I entered the last ".", I waited for some seconds (code completion is set to 0.5s), but nothing happened; ctrl+b (the word completion) did not work either. I have added the rt.jar to the project's classpath in ProjectViewer, but still nothing... what am I missing? Thanks, Savior

Hi,I'm using Ubuntu. I installed jEdit and also the Console Plugin, however, when I try Plugins -> Console -> Javac

I'm getting this:

This shell runs operating system processes.

Press TAB with an empty command line to list built-in commands.
Run built-in with --help argument to get a brief usage message.
Run %help to view Console plugin online help.

Errors generated by compilers and some other programs are listed
for easy one-click access in the 'Plugins->Error List->Error List'
window.
/home/morgue> javac -classpath "$CLASSPATH:/home/morgue/workspace/Week 5 - GUI" -sourcepath "/home/morgue/workspace/Week 5 - GUI" -encoding UTF-8 "/home/morgue/workspace/Week 5 - GUI/NumberGuess2.java"
Process javac exited with code 127
/bin/bash: javac: command not found
/home/morgue>

What should I do?

Sorry people this is probably a really dumb question but I've been searching the forum and the net for 2 hours and I can't find the answer.

I have a Java program that maintains a list of web pages. Presently the program is configurable to allow the user to select an editor of choice e.g. NotePad, WordPad, DreamWeaver etc. That editor is opened with the files that the user has selected from a list box. I would like it to be possible for jEdit to be used, however I have failed completely to get jEdit to launch. I have found numerous examples of code on the web that make a call like this -> jEdit.openFile(null, path) but when I use null for the View I get a null pointer exception. I've tried using jEdit.getCurrentView and that returns null (not surprisingly), I've even launched jEdit manually and getCurrentView still returns a null.

What am I missing, I assume this is possible? I don't want multiple instances, I just want a single instance of jEdit running with the ability to set it viewing one or more files that have been selected from inside of my Java program.

Any help most appreciated. I'm running jEdit 4.3pre7 under Windows XP Home.

Console doesn't recognize my 'subshell path' until I hit 'apply' in the plugin options every time after I load jEdit. This is extremely annoying and can't be working as intended. Is there a workaround for it?

WinXP SP2, Python 2.4 and 2.5, jEdit 4.3b7, Console 4.2.6.5

It used to be possible with some older version (a while back) but now it doesn't work anymore ...

thx

I have been happily using the XRefactory plugin for my java browsing for a while (completion of methods, going to definitions of methods, seeing all references to a method / variable) and am frustrated by the lack of Java 1.5 support. I'd like very much to start getting my hands dirty with 1.5's new syntax, but without these 3 features I am not willing to go very far.

Is there plugins doing all these three things that works with Java 1.5 ?

Hey folks, I've isolated this issue to the XML plugin. I love the XML plugin, but when I have it on, after some amount of time, say 10 min., I notice my processor is chugging and I look at top - and there's java, at the top of the list, consuming like 95%+ cpu. I'm running Sun JDK 1.5 on linux and jEdit pre7.

Maybe it's an option in the plugin manager? Any other linux jEdit users running with the XML plugin?

PS - Did I mention I love jEdit?

When writing code I would very much like to use language-specific folding for language structures in addition to expclicit folding for logical groups of lines. Is that at all possible? If so, how?

thx alot

Hi All,

I did some searching around these forums and found only little bits and pieces of what I'm looking for, but nothing seemed all that conclusive to what I'm after so I figured I'd post a topic. If this has been answered elsewhere, I apologize for the repeat post and would hope you could point me in the right direction.

I currently work with Intellij IDEA (http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/) on a regular day-to-day basis. However I am interested in also writing Java on OSX platform and IntelliJ has the uncanny ability to suck up a LOT of memory, (and is of course, rather on the high dollar end).

Considering there are dozens and dozens of plug-ins out there, I find it very difficult to find features that suit my needs directly. Many have descriptions that seem like they might do what I want and then after installing them I find that they lack one thing or another and I'm forced to go fishing for an alternative.

I really like how IntelliJ has code completion, code highlighting, an expandable directory tree for the project I'm working in, and the ability to set up ant build and tomcat such that I can compile with the click of a button.

Does anyone use any of the aformentioned features who may be able to point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance.

The title says it all. What is jEdit Server and what does it do?

Two questions.

1. Does CodeLint actually do anything? I installed it, built antic and jlint and set the paths, and it still does nothing at all when I do Plugins -> Codelint -> Lint Source.

2. Is there a plugin that does C/C++ syntax ERROR highlighting?

3. I lied, three questions. Is there a subversion plugin in any state of active development?

Hi. I need to upload a graphic into the graphics folder in my web directory... It's a simple GIF graphic.

Can't seem to figure out how with J-edit? can it be done?

Hi there,

I want jEdit to autoreplace my inputs depending on the Buffer Mode I'm in.

Example: When in PL/SQL-mode I want jEdit automatically replace the text 'ndf' with 'NO_DATA_FOUND' the very moment I type it. How do I do that?

Thanks

Keyword highlighting is controlled by mode files specified in the file "catalog". For example: The MySQL keywords are specified in the mode file mysql.xml, and the standard SQL keywords are in tsql.xml. So when editing a MySQL file (*.sql), I want to have the MySQL and SQL keywords highlighted: But only the second one listed takes the fact,as if it overrides the previous one. How do I get both sets of keywords to be highlighted (short of manually jamming the two files into one, which surely can't be the best solution)?

Hi!

When I start jedit with this command:
java -jar jedit.jar -reuseview filename.txt

(I'm using '-reuseview' to avoid that strange default behavior that a new jedit window opens with all the files opened so far plus the new one but the window previously used stays open, too.)

This way it is loaded in the existing jedit instance and no new window opens (very good), but the jedit window itself doesn't get activated. Which drives me mad, because I always have to select it with the mouse or alt-tab for half a minute until I find it. Is there any way to have that jedit window activated? What I've been thinking of is e.g. running jedit like this:

java -jar jedit.jar -run=On_Open_File.bsh -reuseview filename.txt

where On_Open_File.bsh would activate the window. I'm a complete beginner at BeanShell, so no idea about how to do that.

I'm using KDE on Linux, so a Linux-specific solution (activating the window from the command line or whatever) would do as well.

Thank you very much!
Agoston

P.S.: This select box ("Forum:") on my browser behaves a bit strangely, I wanted to select the "-Using jEdit" option, I hope I managed to.
