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!!!

Strange Windows behaiver
Submitted by Anonymous on Wednesday, 28 January, 2004 - 14:59
I've noticed two strange and annoying behaviors of the JEdit window in Windows. I can live with them, but it would be nice if they where fixed. I'm not really sure if this is a feature or a bug... anyway.
(1) When in Windows and clicking Windows + M to minimize all windows JEdit is not minimized. It just loses focus if it got it. This can be a bit annoying.
(2) When right clicking a file in Windows and clicking Open with JEdit the JEdit window comes to the front. But when selecting two files, right clicking, and clicking Show diff in JEdit the JEdit window doesn't come to front. It would be nice if it have the same behavior, coming to the front.
Jazzy spell checking improvements
Submitted by Anonymous on Wednesday, 28 January, 2004 - 15:29
The most common reason for me to not use JEdit when I actually would like to use it is when writing plain human text, like this. When it comes to spell checking I almost always use MS Word. The spell checking features I'm missing are:
(1) Easy switching language. I often write text in both English and my native language and I would like to be able to fast and easy switch the active dictionary with a simple menu. I think this one should be pretty simple to implement!?
(2) I really like the MS Word spell checking when you're writing. Misspelled words are marked with a red underline. If you like to change the word you can do it by the keyboard, or you can right click the word and you get a popup menu with suggestions.
Any chance to get these features implemented in Jazzy (or any other way into JEdit)? This would be one of the most appreciated JEdit feature that I can think of. In my opinion it would greatly improve the hole of JEdit!
(By the way, I had to write this feature request in MS World, not in JEdit

.)
I like both JEdit and Jazzy

, see you!

Auto indent change
Submitted by Anonymous on Thursday, 29 January, 2004 - 12:38
When you press enter the new line will be auto indented to the first previous indented line. I would like to change this so the new line would not be indented if the previous line where not in dented. (The behaviour is somewhat different with text, but I think you get the idea.)
Example: If I got this:
And press return the next line will be indented, like this:
I wouldn't it like this:
Hope I got my point through!
Thanks!
JIndex Problem
Submitted by Anonymous on Thursday, 29 January, 2004 - 13:50
I am having no luck in configuring JIndex 1.1.
I am mixing the IBM 1.4.1 JDK src.zip and the Sun 1.4.1 SDK documentation. There appear to be no error messages so I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
It might be that JIndex will only work with SDK 1.3???
Any suggestions gratefully received.
Thanks,

I installed jEdit 4.2pre8 on Windows 2000. It doesn't see my environment varibales, such as JAVA_HOME, CLASSPATH, etc. Is there a place where I can set a variable so that jEdit can detect my environment variables.
Thanks.

Smaller icon sizes
Submitted by Anonymous on Thursday, 29 January, 2004 - 19:32
Is there a way to make the graphical items a smaller size? One specific example is the HyperSearch Results. When I dock the results at the bottom of the view, the top edge of the results has an icon for "Remove All Nodes" and "Toggle Multiple Results". While these are occasionally useful, I would much rather have the space they use for a larger text area. The icons cause the border between the results and the edit area to be twice the size it needs to be.

Hello jedit-community,

I've lerand tha jedit is _not_ a word processor, but a text editor - but are there any developents to make it becoming something like a word processor, or it there any other java-program that can be use?
Google didn't help.
Thanks for your help

Difference between CodeAid, DotComplete and SpeedJava
Submitted by Anonymous on Thursday, 29 January, 2004 - 22:57
CodeAid, DotComplete and SpeedJava all seem to be Java auto-complete plugins.
If this is true, what is the difference between them and which is the most "complete".
Thanks, Tom

i tried to browse this site with Internet Explorer (6, XP) and noticed quite a layout bug: the right blocks get moved down below the last line of the main content (

jEdit Main window won't appear in OS X Panther
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 30 January, 2004 - 21:09
I recently installed a new ram chip in my computing. Immediately after, jEdit stopped working. it loads into the dock and brings up the loading screen. then, all it shows is a minimized file in the dock of a java file i was working on. clicking on this file closes it, but not jEdit.
As far as I can tell, i think this is a jEdit only thing going on; all the other java programs i tested worked fine.
