I have been using jEdit for some time, but have recently been working on a project that requires the use of the Microsoft Visual C++ IDE, which by default utilises it's own (somewhat limited by comparison) text editor.
Is there any way that I can hook jEdit into this IDE?
I appreciate that this may be an inappropate location for this post, but I'm hoping that someone in this community has had this experience and can point me in the direction of a solution

Thanks,
Paul

I have been searching the archives and cannot find an answer to my question. I want to know if I can search a file and find all blank lines and replace with a text character? Then I want to be able to search all files in a directory and do the same. Is there a specific plugin I can use? Anyone have a Macro? I cannot believe that this has not already come up

Thanks,

Jery

How do I define meta key combinations with mouse clicks?
I want to define ctrl-left_mouse as 'delete word', but the gui shortcut editor doesn't allow such wonderful things. Do I need to directly edit a config file?

I'm working to customize JEdit, and I'm making painfully slow progress.
I really just want to get it looking like this :
http://www.jedit.org/index.php?page=screenshot&image=18

maybe with these icons:

Can I buy these somewhere? Manfred, no joke, if you visit these forums, I will paypal you 30 bucks this instant if you have this available in a form I can import.

How can I switch off the bracket matching feature, so that brackets in all syntax tokens are considered.

Does TomcatSwitch plugin support Tomcat 5.0?

I am new to JEdit. I am using the latest version of JEdit-jEdit 4.3pre4. When I use the console to compile my source code, I see the following in the system window: javac -classpath "$CLASSPATH;C:\jdk50Study\src\access" -sourcepath "C:\jdk50Study\src\access" -g -deprecation -encoding Cp1252 "C:\jdk50Study\src\access\Mini.java" However, when the JDK runs the command, I see the follwoing error: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unrecognized command: javac -classpath <.... I left this long list out> Can anyone shed some light on this issue for me. I really need to get JEdit working....... Thank you for any words of advice. Russ

Guys/Gals:

I am very new to JEdit. I am using the tool to work with JDK1.5. I have install the JCompile pulgin. When I try to compile the source code, I receive the following exception involving the BeanShell Error Dialog box.

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: console.Console.setShell(Lconsole/Shell;)V
at jcompiler.JCompilerPlugin.executeCommand(JCompilerPlugin.java:106)
at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(Unknown Source)


Is there something I have not done?

Thank you for any words of advice.

Is it possible to connect to ftp using jEdit, if I'm under proxy? I cannot see place where I can fill my FTP proxy settings.

Maksud.

Can I use lookbehind ( http://www.regular-expressions.info/lookaround.html ) in jEdit? The lookbehind syntax ( (?<!a)b ) gives an regex error and the manual doesn't mention it so I'm guessing jEdit doesn't support it. Either that or it's using some undocumented syntax I'm not aware of.

I received a new updated today for the Project Viewer plug-in. Once I restarted jEdit I received the error
PHP Project
Your project is in an invalid file format. You have to refresh the project.

I tried moving jar's in and out of the main program folder until the error stopped. Once i figured out which one it was (PHPParser) I removed the PHPParserPlugin folder from ~./jedit/PHPParserPlugin directory and let jEdit recreate it. That solved the problem for me.

If anyone else runs into this error I hope it will help.

Hello,

I am using jEdit for Ruby on Rails development. Code completion, abbreviations, etc. work well, but I am still having some issues.

First, when I run a generator that finds duplicate files, it asks for user input as to whether or not to overwrite the files. In the regular Windows command prompt, this works fine, but in the jEdit console, it just shows it as "Working..." and doesn't ask if you want to overwrite.

Second, when you run the WEBrick server, you must leave the console window open. Is it possible to create a macro to create a new floating instance of Console and run the required command ("ruby script\server")?

Third, when I use a generator, it creates a lot of files. I use them quite frequently, and it can sometimes be annoying to have to go to re-import files every time a file is created outside of jEdit. Is it possible to have jEdit monitor the directory and auto-import newly created files, even when jEdit is open?


Thanks!

Hi, I am trying to improve the verilog mode to fit a coding guildline, I whant the "begin" and the "end" to be aligned. The problem is that I am not able to tell jedit to lineup the "end", I've trided by using :

"PROPERTY NAME="indentOpenBrackets" VALUE="begin" /"
"PROPERTY NAME="indentCloseBrackets" VALUE="end" /"

with no sucess.. can someone help?

(sorry for my bad english)

tx in advance

I'm looking to automaticly indent by tabs XML group tags. Also indent Javascript's "if", functions etc.
Is there such command/plugin/macro?

I'm editing FORTH files which use the suffix ".f" .
The assembler coloring works well enough for my purposes
and I have set the defaults for both the global and buffer
options to default to that . But something insists on opening
.f files as FORTRAN which I haven't used in 35 years .

How do I kill that ?

When I open a UTF-8 file without a BOM (Byte Order Mark) in jEdit, I see weird squiggly characters (if you know what I mean) in place of expected Cyrillic. I didn't find a place where I could specify the encoding. I also wanted to have the ability to specify 'no BOM' on any UTF-8 files I may create in future.

I was actually able to type in some Russian, but that isn't enough. I need to be able to open Unicode files created in different applications too.

Any ideas?

Hello All,

Does anyone have a handy filter that will ignore the "svn" directories for a subversion project when doing a search for files in a directory? I often search for code in my subversion based project directories using the "Search and Replace" feature and don't want all the redudant files in the "svn" directories to show up too. I have not figured out a way to use the filters feature to filter out those files.

Thanks!
Peter

most MacOSX apps. allow horizontal scrolling using shift+scroll. Anyway to recreate this in jEdit?

thanks

Hi
I am a novice user and so far am pleasantly surprised with JEdit features. I face a small problem which I think is due to my lack of exp with this. I want to do a search and replace some string with a beanshell syntax.

for eg
search - (\d+)=(\w+)
replace - _1 + text.getCaretLine() + _2 (beanshell expression).

I get an error to the effect that text is undefined. For that matter, I get the same error even for the predefined var. "line". What is going on?

Any insight will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
SK.

This is a duplicate post... I mistakenly submitted the first one to the wrong forum... my fault.

I just download and installed jEdit for the first time and I'm still not completely used to it.
I'm looking for a way to auto save all the open files/buffers once the program looses focus.
I find it very handy when I modify several dependent scripts and then move to a different program to run it.
This is a feature I got used to have in MultiEdit.
I'm sure there must be a way to do it.
Thanks,
Franco
