Hi there,
I have used JEdit for years on a Mac without any problems. A few weeks ago, suddenly, the file browser stopped working for browsing files on remote server with the ftp plug-in. I thought maybe I needed to just upgrade JEdit or something, so I downloaded jEdit 4.3.2 and installed it.

I went to start setting up my environment with the first thing being downloading the FTP plug-in again. The only problem is that I can't download the plug-in. It looks like it tries to do it and then gives me a message that says, "Error while downloading the plugin, please try another mirror. Operation timed out." I have tried quiet a few other mirrors, but still get this message. Any ideas?

JEdit is my preferred program to use to edit files on my remote servers, and I'd really like to get it working again.

Thanks!
Kristen

When having several *.prn-files/buffers (containing text only) open within one instance of jEdit and trying to search and replace e.g. "," by "." in all buffers i get the error

"The specified search file set contains no files. Please ensure that the file name filter and directory to search (if applicable) are set correctly"

The error occurs with jEdit 4.4pre1 under Win7x64

Hello,
last week, suddenly, my jEdit did not start anymore with a doubleclick, so I downloader a new version -- not a good idea, usually it's better to know why these things happen --, anyway after updating my usual shell scripts to open files on the command line do not work anymore. I usually do:

java -jar /Applications/jEdit.app/Contents/Resources/Java/jedit.jar -reuseview $1

to open a file in a new tab on jedit. Now I get an error instead:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Bad version number in .class file

But why it runs well when I double click the application?
May we have back my command line?

Thank you for any help provided.

With jEdit 4.3.x having a split-view it was possible to have different buffers in each split. With 4.4pre1 under Win7x64 this possibility seems to be gone. Can anyone help?

Thanks!

I can edit parts of the file (inside a comment). I can delete, but can't type new text. If I set the buffer to mode shtml it works. But I can't do it at a global level.

This is what I get when typing.

I use to use this quite a bit, to close a folder of files.
By right click close on a folder in Buffer List it tried to close all files in that folder.
If none were changed it just closed them, if some were changed it prompted me for Cancel save or close anyway from memory.

Yes its been ages, but I kept forgetting about the problem and the next time I hit it being in the middle of stuff again and not querying again.

I believe the change in behaviour started before 4.3 final...
I do notice that right click on a folder causes the title bar of jedit to cycle though all the files in the folder quickly and then show the menu.

I would appreciate any tips or ideas, not sure i feel comfortable actually trying to get into jedit code for this.

I'm on Fedora 13 64-bit using jEdit 4.3.2 and OpenJDK 1.6.0, and every time I open a file, the Sidekick dock automatically opens (which is irritating because I have it docked on the same side as my file browser), and the Hypersearch window pops open as well. What configuration settings do I change (if any) to stop this behavior?
Thank you,
Raymond

To be able to include more buttons in the toolbar i created my own buttons, each button 16x16 pixel and included the smaller buttons via "Global-Options->Toolbar->Add->Load icon from file".

In former versions of jEdit (4.3.x) the size of the toolbar was adjusted to the smaller size of the buttons, when all buttons were 16x16 pixel. Version 4.4pre1 ignores the smaller size of the buttons thus preventing me to see my full/oversized toolbar.

Is there a possibility to compress the toolbar due to the smaller icons?

Thanks a lot,
Hans Bauer

I'm using Jedit 4.3.2 on Ubuntu 10.10 server using XFCE 4.6.2. My JRE is 1.6.0_24-b07.

I am seeing lots of strange Swing re-drawing issues. I have a file browser docked on the left, and periodically, the directory listing entries dissapear until clicked. Also my buffertabs bar at the bottom gets corrupted. It seems as if closed buffers' titles don't get removed, so they write across existing ones.

Is this a JRE Swing thing, or JAVA. I havn't seen this issue with any other Swing applications?

I'm trying to set jEdit 4.3.2 as the default editor for my files in Windows 7. But when I browse for the jEdit.exe I can't find it. I was able to do this a few days ago, but I had to uninstall jEdit do to some other issues. But now I am unable to set it as the default editor.

This happens on windows 7. Has anybody experienced this ?
Whilst not critical, this is annoying and i'd hate to have to use another editor.

When I try to compile a score using the Lilypond Tool in jEdit, I keep getting the following result: java.io.IOException:error=2,No such file or directory??? What does this mean, and how do I fix it??? Help please. Thanks.

I have installed ALL of jEdit's plug-ins, and many (or at least several) of them are not working. How can I uninstall ALL of them, so I can selectively reinstall only those which I need? Thanks.

I'm a somewhat infrequent user of JEdit but have most of the basics down. While doing a rails upgrade to an existing project, I was searching the directory for similar degraded code, which worked fine. Separate, floating hypersearch window was wonderfult. At some point, it disappeared. I have no idea what I did to cause it. I can go into global options and dock it, where it works fine, but I would prefer that it float. If I change it back to floating, I get nothing, so I have to go back to docked to see any results. Does anyone have any ideas on how to recover the floating version of hypersearch? Thanks in advance

Let's say I'm clicking around in any other windows program (e.g. Firefox, Outlook), then I click back in the jEdit window... it hangs for several seconds before resuming function. Same if I Alt-Tab or click.

Once I'm in jEdit, I experience no performance issues.

But I often flip back and forth between email or browser, etc, and jEdit. It's a real pain to have to wait 5 seconds every time.

Could it be memory? Is there something I can add to the startup string that might help?

I did it on my Windows XP computer with 3gb Ram, and now it's doing it on my Windows 7 computer with an I7 proc and 4gb of RAM.

jEdit 4.4pre1 server mode, using Java 1.6.0_23
I am running a dual monitor setup.

I have OSX 10.6.7, the latest, and jEdit 4.4. After updating my OSX yesterday with the lastes update jEdit no longer works. I can't figure it our but it seems that it may not be loading the Mac OSX plugin correctly. When I open a doc in jEdit it simply opens as a blank page. It does not matter what kind of doc I open it is simply blank. Anyone else having the problem?

Thanks

When I copy/paste a selection of cells from Excel into Jedit, I get rows incorrectly separated and they appear as concatenated in one line.
Closing and reopening the file, the rows become correctly separated into different lines. It seems a problem related to how Jedit is rendering cells pasted from Excel.

This happens with the latest Jedit release (stable or daily RC) and working on MacOSX only (the same release on Windows behaves correctly).

Which is the problem?

Thanks,
Eva

Dear forum,

yesterday I installed IE9 on my Win7Pro computer. Since then jEdit has stopped working.

I have reinstalled JRE and jEdit but no luch. I have also switched IE9 off.

If I paste the content of the jedit.bat file:

start "jEdit startup" "C:\Windows\SysWOW64\javaw.exe" -Xmx192M -jar "C:\Program Files\jEdit\jedit.jar" -reuseview %*

into a command window I don't get any error messages, only a new prompt. No jEdit window.

A "javaw.exe*32" process I started though.

Any ideas?

pleas help me .... what am i doing wrong???

I have a constant problem with the marks for a buffer being wrong.
They seem to be shifted to random lines. This does not seem to be related to adding/removing lines in the text area.
Is there a solution to this, or at least a way to easily re-mark all functions?
