Submitted by Sandal Tolk on Wednesday, 10 November, 2004 - 13:53
Hi!
I just installed jEdit and I'm configuring it at the moment.
I already found all options i wanted, expect the option to turn of this vertical blue line in the middle of the text editor window.
That it is possible to turn it of is seen here: http://jedit.org/index.php?page=screenshot&image=29 but how do I do it? I cant find the Option Sad
Multiple folding modes at once?
Submitted by malyvelky on Sunday, 7 November, 2004 - 18:08
Hi,

I do C++ programming and I'd like to improve the editing experience by getting as much as possible out of code folding.
Basically, I want 3 folding modes at once: fold code between { and }, fold comments, and sometimes explicit fold. How to do it? Thanks! /M. Velky

Resize Frame Using Keyboard?
Submitted by seani on Friday, 5 November, 2004 - 09:52
The Title says is all really; is there a way to interactively resize a frame using keyboard shortcuts.

In Brief for example, you could:

1) Press ALT-R followed by a direction key. This would select the frame edge to resize

2) Use the direction keys to interactively resize

3) Press ENTER to set the size permanently.


Failing this, is there a method to temporarily toggle the current frame to full size. Again, in Brief, I had ALT-Z bound to toggle-zoom.

Setting environment variables in Console
Submitted by Anonymous on Sunday, 31 October, 2004 - 17:25
In Jedit (4.2final) with the console plugin I'm not being able to set environment variables. More precisely, in the system console, and in a win2k system

set Path=C:\

does not work. Several variations with extra \ or with " do not work either. OTOH in the BeanShell console the setenv works alright. Can any1 help me out here, what am I doing wrong?

With my best regards,
G. Rodrigues

P.S: If this is not the right forum for this question, my appologies and plz direct me to the right forum.
How do I get lines in between { and } brackets?
Submitted by Anonymous on Sunday, 31 October, 2004 - 07:34
I was just wondering how I could get the lines between the brackets like in this: http://www.jedit.org/index.php?page=screenshot&image=14 screenshot. Is it a plug-in? Or a setting? I've looked all over for this, so if anyone knows I'd be very thankful.
Tag completion (XML plugin)
Submitted by cld on Saturday, 30 October, 2004 - 21:27
From documentation: "If the less-than symbol ("<") is typed and no other key is pressed within a specified delay (half a second by default), a tag list popup will be shown." Popup doesn't work for me Sad What's wrong with that ?
Jumping Between Buffer Panes
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 29 October, 2004 - 19:07
I quite often split the main edit window into two pains. How can I use the keyboard to jump between the two panes. Note I am not talking about doced windows. I am talking about when you use the split buttons on the button bar.

Thanks!
jEdit is a great programmers tool
Problem with jEdit and Webdrive
Submitted by amorgos on Friday, 29 October, 2004 - 16:01
I'm using JEdit 4.2 along with webdrive 6.04 (i think...the latest version anyway).

The problem is, when I edit a file, the remote FTP doesn't like the #file# format that jEdit seems to create. so I can't simply save a file using jEdit on the webdrive, i have to save it elsewhere and then copy it onto the webdrive.

Is there any way around this problem?

Thanks a lot

Unable to debug Java application using JSwatPlugin
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 29 October, 2004 - 02:40
Hello People,
I installed JEdit and the JSwatPlugin to debug Java applications. Now I have a TestBanking.java and a package banking containing five other java files. I try to place a breakpoint at main itself in TestBanking.java When I select JSwatPlugin and there I click on "Start VM" I get the following error " An error occurred during execution of a JSwat action:java.lang.NullPointerException. For more information see Activity log".
I am unable to find why this error is popping up.
When I compile the same program from command line it compiles fine but gives a java.lang.NullPointerException at runtime.
Please advise. Error with code or I am not able to use the debugger properly.

Thanks in advance.
Ctrl+TAB to switch buffers
Submitted by Anonymous on Thursday, 28 October, 2004 - 12:44
Hi, I'm used to use ctrl+tab in almost every "tabbed" software to switch buffers -- some apps do it in "stupid" way when ctrl+tab only moves focus to next tab (which I believe can be simulated in jEdit by redefining shortcuts binding) but I found no way to switch tabs (buffers) in a smart way - like Windows XP when using alt+tab: bring the most recently used buffer to the top.

Thank you for the solution. Pavel.
How to invoke new (Ruby) compiler / interpreter ? Console problem in 4.2 ?
Submitted by itsme213 on Wednesday, 27 October, 2004 - 20:50
I am using 4.2 on Windows 2K.

On the DOS command line I can type:
ruby myFile.rb
and it will run, show errors, show output, etc.

I have tried using the Console, and typing in "ruby myFile.rb" and I see nothing. No output, no errors. The little "spinner" icon starts spinning, presumably to show some process is running.

I wonder if my Console plug-in is working right. If I type "cd" it shows the result fine. If I type "dir /w" it does nothing, and again the spinner spins.

Help. What do I need to do?
