"Keep Dialog" (check box) in Search & Replace: Settings
Submitted by ELockhart on Friday, 12 May, 2006 - 13:27
I have tried to find out what the "Keep Dialog" check box refers to in the JEdit "Help Files" but can not find any reference to it. Would someone please point me to the right spot (in the "Help Files") or explain what it means/how it works?

Thanks,
Eric
Jedit showing . characters
Submitted by kannan.ekanath on Wednesday, 10 May, 2006 - 13:18
In JEdit,
The editor is showing a "." instead of EOL character and a ":" whenever the word wrapping happens. Although sometimes desirable i want to TURN THIS feature off. Is there anyway i can do this?

I tried playing with the global options, buffer options and the forums but cudnt find something though.

Thanks,

uneditable and editable regions in the code
Submitted by canelita on Monday, 8 May, 2006 - 12:48
I am not an expert with Jedit, so I dont know how basic this question is.

Do we have a plugin/feature that allows me to have uneditable and editable regions in the code?
I need to lock some region in the code, so users cannot touch some code I have already generated.
SWI Prolog
Submitted by vale on Saturday, 6 May, 2006 - 02:11
Hello,
I am new to JEdit and I was wondering if someone already have thought about integrating SWI prolog into JEdit or can help me with my starting problems:

First I edited modes/catalogs so the syntax highlightning works automatically with the file endings of my project, adjusted the prolog.xml for my needs and filled with additional keywords of swi-prolog. this worked quite well.

Then I tried the simple task to integrate the swi-shell into jedit by using the console plugin. So I started "swipl" in the System-console, which also starts the swi-prompt, but right after I get thrown out again with "ERROR: Stream user_input:8: Syntax error: Unexpected end of file". I guess there is a simple solution to this lying behind some adjustments of the console-plugin...

Further, I want to use the ErrorList-plugin to attach to swi (is this possible/usefull/hard, can it show the line of the error in the buffer) and make shortcuts to common prolog commands like "consult" aso.

Thanks for any help.

CSS Plugin Help
Submitted by gkterry on Tuesday, 2 May, 2006 - 12:03
I am having some difficulty getting the CSS Editor Plugin to work. I am using the latest development version of jEdit on Win XP with Java 1.5 U6. When I attempt to add an element in the CSS editor, everything appears to work as expected (including the preview) until I click the Add button. Then nothing happens. This occurs whether I am creating a new element or attempting to modify a previously created element after parsing.

I have totally wiped out the user settings and the jEdit program several times. Once I installed the program with just the CSS Editor plugin with the same result. I've noticed that this doesn't work on 2 different computers.

Am I missing something? Thanks for the help!
nu-B : please advise
Submitted by ekips on Monday, 1 May, 2006 - 22:22
Hello,

I am a complete newbie to developing GUIs, and using Swing in general. I am trying to embed a simple text editor into my current project that would allow for basic syntax highlighting and line numbering.

I am wondering if there is anyway to embed jedit with a small subset of its existing features, or if someone might be able to point me in the right direction... I think I may need to look into *EditorKits from swing, but I am still getting my bearings with this project...

any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you!

Highlights the current function in CodeBrowser
Submitted by Manil on Thursday, 27 April, 2006 - 19:28
Hi all,

I want to know, if we can have a highlight on a current function in CodeBrowser, it will be usefull to know where we are in the code when we are editing a function. I don't think it's a hard thing to implement juste locating the position of the pointer and comparing it to the position of the functions....So if anyone thought about it, can you let me know or may be i can try to implement it, but i'll need to be in the developpement team probably...

Thx for any answer
jEdit cleanup
Submitted by metric152 on Thursday, 27 April, 2006 - 01:11
I've been using jEdit for the last two weeks and it's a great program.

It seems a little sloppy about cleaning up the temp files (*.ext~) when the program closes.
Is there any way to have the program delete those on exit, or do I have to remove them by hand?

Importing shortcuts
Submitted by dnagy on Wednesday, 19 April, 2006 - 23:17
Is it possible to export keyboard shortcuts then import them? I have two Jedit installations that I would like to behave similarly.

Could only find a macro to export to a buffer - no import. Are the shortcuts stored in a file somewhere?

Make Jedit run on JDK on removable USB drive without changing PATH (batch file, maybe?)
Submitted by sidewalking on Wednesday, 19 April, 2006 - 13:29
Hi all,

I searched a bit but couldn't find the answer, so here goes:

Here is my situation. I have an old JRE 1.3 on my work computer and one of our programs will not work with anything newer than this (don't ask). Needless to say, I am not allowed to install any Java JRE (and I presume JDK/SDK either).

However, I copied my install folders of the newest JDK and JRE for 1.5.0_6 to my USB drive (path is E:\Java\jdk1.5.0_06) and I can run Netbeans, BlueJ and jGRASP just fine because those prompt you to browse for a JDK to use.

This is the problem I run into: I want to use Jedit, not just as an editor but with the compiler functionality, and I wold prefer running it from my USB Java 1.5 JRE rather than the antiquated 1.3 on my desktop machine. Can I do this? I know how to set the path but I do not want to interfere with the functionality of that work program. Is there a batch file I can use to start it that will invoke it to start in the E:\Java\jdk1.5.0_06\bin or E:\Java\jre1.5.0_06\bin folders instead of the system path that directs to JRE 1.3?


Many thanks! Smiling

Hi evyone,
i'd like to install and use the background visual plugin (link: http://plugins.jedit.org/plugins/?Background)
It's not working, i dont know why.

I installed it form the Plugin Manager inside jEdit (version 4.2 final).
Now I can find the background item in the Plugins Menu.
The item looks chacked, but if i click on it i get this error message:

Macro Help
Submitted by Caim on Saturday, 15 April, 2006 - 20:01
I've spent about 2 days trying to install jEdit properly on my computer(windows XP). Today I finally got everything working. and I started playing around with all the things you can do with jEdit. I am just starting to learn how to program in Python. Everything works fine but I have a question about macros.

I know how to record macros. I know how they work and what they are, (Beanshell or Jython scripts) but I don't know how to assign keyboard shortcuts to my created macros. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks in advance.
jEdit sluggish when not connected to network
Submitted by AlabamaPaul on Thursday, 13 April, 2006 - 15:37
I hope this is the right place to post...
I have been using jEdit on my laptop running Windows XP, and have been very happy with its performance. When I am at work, and connected to the corporate LAN or wireless LAN, jEdit works just great.

But, when I am disconnected from the corporate LAN and working without any network connection, jEdit is extremely sluggish (for example it takes jEdit 3 seconds to respond to and complete pressing the page down key in a 1500 line C souce code file).

Even if I connect to my network at home or to the corporate VPN from my home network, jEdit is still sluggish.

I've disabled and un-installed all plugins to make sure it wasn't something related to a plugin, but this had no effect.

Any ideas what may be causing this ?

Thanks,
Paul
Reuse buffer when opening files externally
Submitted by romi on Tuesday, 11 April, 2006 - 08:42
Hi everyone!

Sorry if I'm posting a trivial question, but as I use jEdit in Windows and have it as my standard editor in Total Commander, or even as a default source viewer in the browser jEdit keeps opening a new buffer window (complete with all files, file browser, etc...) each time I open a new file in this way. The only way to open a file in jEdit without causing it to open a new instance is by drag-n-drop or by using the built in file browser.

Is there any way to force jEdit to reuse its buffer and not open a new window each time? Ideas appreciated...

Cheers,
Roman
