Each time I update my jedit Version I have to reconstruct the edit modes catalog file

I think it would be a good idea to put the information of the catalog file into the edit mode files themselves.
Jedit should loop over the edit mode files to collect the information.
Then one could also just copy the file into the directory without registering in the catalog file

Jedit for ever ...

Hey everyone Im a college student whose school recently took all the ftp servers offline since they werent secure enough anymore. Does anyone know about an ssh plugin for jedit? Id like to continue using jedit for programming but since my school no longer accepts ftp clients I cant effectivly work in jedit anymore. If its not being made Im hoping someone can maybe start working on it. I know a lot of programmers that are having the same difficulties now with the change over from ftp to an ssh.
Thanks

At present, the only way one can change the font is through the general option setting. It would be nice if I could do that either through file type, or even for a buffer (essentially, adding this option to the global option/buffer option menu).

Why? For most of the programming job one uses Courier or similar for well-known reasons. However, I sometimes have to edit multilingual RDF/XML files, that includes various indic, chinese, korean, etc, scripts. I can do it very well with jEdit, provided that for that particular buffer I use a proper unicode font that has those unicode characters. On my machine at least that is Arial Unicode MS. SO the only thing I can do is to change the font for jEdit in general to edit this file, and then change it back to Courier if I want to edit, for example, a txt or a python file.

Hello,

I have tried installing both jedit41install.jar and jedit42pre8install.jar on Windows XP Professional, and when the first installation dialog box comes up, I cannot click the Next button. All I get is a double-headed arrow and nothing in the dialog responds. The only way out is for me to right-click on the Task Bar button and stop the JAR file.

Has anyone else seen this behavior? I was able to install JEdit just fine on two other computers -- what could be the problem in this case?

Thanks for any help.

Add to the already large body of programming and language tools by including modes for these popular compiler and lexical analyzer tools.

Which method is recommended for getting a string property like "lineComment" which depend on the current editing mode?
buffer.getMode().getProperty() or can I use buffer.getStringProperty()?

Does jEdit support VRML and if not is it possible to get a syntax package for it in jEdit?

Hey all, Trying to customize the stock Insert_Date.bsh macro to use the format I want but can't get it to work. So I tried this, and it didn't work either. What am I doing wrong?

    Date today;
    String output;
    SimpleDateFormat formatter;

    formatter = new SimpleDateFormat("E, M d, y - h :m  a", currentLocale);
    today = new Date();
    output = formatter.format(today);

    // inserting date and internet time to textarea
    textArea.setSelectedText(ouput);

Thanks in advance

Hello,

I just installed the Whitespace plugin with 4.2pre8 but when I select "Show Spaces" or any other of the "Show" options, nothing changes.

Should the current Whitespace plugin work with 4.2pre8 or am I missing something?

Hi,

I tried to use the Context-help plugin for php, which opens the windows-helpviewer, to access a ".chm"-php helpfile via following bsh-script:

---------------------------------------------------------
command = new StringBuffer();
command.append("hh.exe ");
command.append("mk:@MSITStore:");
command.append(helpDirectory);
command.append("/php_manual_en.chm");
command.append("::/function.");
command.append(keyWord);
command.append(".html");
runCommandInConsole(view,"System",command.toString());
---------------------------------------------------------

Now I've got 2 problems..:

First, the bsh-script does not exit and if I try to access the help again, before closing the helpviewer, the script waits for the first process to exit..
What command shall I use, to open an external application without waiting for it.


Second, following Exception each time I access Context-help:


---------------------------------------------------------

Any Ideas?

Thanks in advance,

It would be handy if I could host a local repository of plug-ins developed specifically for in-house purposes for jEdit and allow people to download them using the regular plug-in manager.

I suppose this wouldn't be hard for me to implement... hmmm...

Some languages don't use the typical squiglly brackets "{" to demarcate chunks of code. Nor do they use any brackets at all. With these languages it would be nice if the indentOpenBrackets and indentCloseBrackets properties would accept regexes as values just like the indentNextLine property does.

Now I could be mistaken and you *can* use regexes with the bracket properties. The fact that I couldn't get it to work doesn't mean much, but I don't think so. I see a few modes where people have tried and then commented out those tags. So, please consider this feature for a future jEdit release.

You should consider providing integrated support for CSE HTML Validator. http://www.htmlvalidator.com/. HTML Validator is an "HTML and CSS development tool that assists in the creation of syntactically correct and accessible HTML and CSS documents". It's amazingly thorough and generally great at what it does, and lots of other professional editors are adding support for it - http://www.htmlvalidator.com/htmlval/integration.html. I just discovered jEdit today. It looks incredible! I'll be switching to it from Macromedia HomeSite. The only thing I can tell so far that I'll miss is my CSE HTML Validator integration. Please think about adding it. Thank you!!!
