Eclipse.org plugin? Plus Others
Submitted by

1. As far as I can see JEDIT had no eclipse plugin capability (eclipse.org), is this planned?
2. I would like JEDIT to support projects. The plugin is a bit ordinary. What would be enough for me is to be able to be able to have main jedit settings in one file which I can ask JEDIT to use from the command line, I would want this to contain the state info, files loaded etc. I can then write a simple batch file which looks for this file in the current directory or use central one if none found.
I would then be able to do what I've been able to do for years and that is start my editor in any projects directory and continue working EXACTLY like I left it, even if this was a year ago...
Bye,
Dennis

I think downloads should contain documentation, I've just downloaded the XP icons download and have no idea what to do with them, no readme or anything. The mangled tooltip on the site says something about JAVA_HOME which I'm not sure what this is and "jre\lib\ext" which as far as I can see this subtree doesn't exist.
My 2 cents worth,
Dennis
jEdit icon pack and ToolBar-Icons

Hi community,
I've download the jEdit icon pack from jedit.org. My problem is now, that I can't find any information about how to install this pack !?
Furthermore I've download some icons from Phoenity for the toolbar. How can I integrate this in JEdit ? Ok to add the icons one by one manual above the Options-Menu it's no problem, but how can I add the whole icons, e.g. over a properties file ?
Thanks a lot for helping answers.

Help please. How to dock buffers as tabs on top of edit area?
Submitted by Anonymous on Saturday, 14 February, 2004 - 06:15
I am using 4.1. I saw the jEdit screenshots and learn it's possible to dock all the open buffers as tabs on top of the edit area. After searching around everywhere, I was still out of luck. Could you please give me a hint? Thanks.
User definable menu options for command line driven programs
Submitted by Anonymous on Saturday, 14 February, 2004 - 22:38
To start, I'll say that I am very impressed with Jedit. Thank you for all the hard work from the programmers associated. A small request I'd like to make. For a long time I used UltraEdit by IDM and it was and still is a fine product. It had a feature that embedded programmers like myself use that allowed me to define menu options that would run console commands without having to pull up the console.
Is there a plugin for something like this now?

Is there a way to turn off the default line padding in pre9?? It is uber-annoying.

Is there a plug in similar to smartypants or is there a way to implement this pearl script into Jedit? I'm a newb here, knowing just enough to code xhtml and awful css. Jedit is great for even just web site dev.
Thanks!

File System Browser Back and Forward Buttons and Customize Browser Toolbar
Submitted by Anonymous on Tuesday, 17 February, 2004 - 14:52
Back/Forward Buttons
--------------------
The File System Browser includes reload and to parent buttons to navigate folders, but not back and forward buttons. Such buttons would allow for easy use of previously accessed folders, for opening buffers related to current tasks.
Moreover, Back and Forward buttons on similar applications for fily system browsing are prevasive in file management software and with Web browsers.
Customize File System Browser Toolbar
-------------------------------------
With the addition of such buttons, ideally, Options:File System Browser:General, would also include the specification of the type and order of buttons to display in the toolbar for the file system browser. For instance, maybe a user would like to have the back/forward buttons displayed before the Parent Directory button, or after the Reload Directory button, or not at all.

I couldn't find Andre kaplan (official maintainer) email so I post her my contribution. I modified a little bit th whitespace plugin in order to display colors in indentation to highlight code structure. You can find the modified version of the plugin and a screenshot here :
http://www.limsi.fr/Individu/vernier/IUP/
does someone find it usefull (code readability probably)?
do you know previous work on the topic ?
do you have any idea on which color for a loop or for a "if-then-else" statement ?

'Lock Buffer Feature'
Submitted by Anonymous on Tuesday, 17 February, 2004 - 18:16
Hi.
Many times, I have faced this problem when working on several buffers: am I editing the file I think I am editing ? I could realize it with a quick look on the tabs, but I guess we programmers can be quite distracted sometimes, and if I have two PHP sources open at the same time, I would think I am writing on file A while in fact, I am writing file B which should not be touched.
Of course, I could change the file permissions in order to prevent myself from doing something stupid. But not always.
My request is: I would like JEdit to have some mechanism to allow me to prohibit myself to write to a buffer. I would 'Lock' the buffer I do not want to write, and I could work with the two of them open at the same time. JEdit would still allow to select and copy text, but not write to the buffer.
So, what do you guys say ? Have you ever run into this same distraction ? Would this be useful ?
See ya

Selecting the proper edit mode
Submitted by
gwperry on
Tuesday, 17 February, 2004 - 20:13
I am very new to jEdit and I am trying to set up my initial environment.
I hope to use jEdit to write/edit short text programs for a proprietary extension of a CAD application. The syntax of these files are somewhat similar to Fortran, with some exceptions.
I am trying to select a edit mode that will allow for syntax highlighting. Since text mode will not show highlighting, I have selected Fortran. This mode seems to distiguish comments but nothing else.
Is there a resource I could use for selecting the best edit mode to allow for syntax highlighting? Or can a syntax standard be created for use in jEdit?
Some examples of the syntax:
---------------------------------
! used for comments in the programs
! first if end statement
IF_1
...
END_IF_1
! second if end statement
IF_2
...
END_IF_2
SEARCH_MDL_REF !typical reference call but a variable is added
USER_SELECT !typical user input
...
etc.

I'm trying to install a plugin...
My jEdit Plugin Manager opens, and downloads the latest list of plugins OK, but when I select one or more to install, the Installing Plugins progress bar appears, but does not download anything.
My modem monitor shows that no data is being downloaded. It doesn't matter which pluing I try or where I try to save it.
Please help. Thanks, Tom

word wrap woes
Submitted by
jeidsness on
Thursday, 19 February, 2004 - 01:39
hello, all. I have upgraded from 4.1 to 4.2pre9 and cannot figure out how to get word wrap working properly.
I'd like it to do a softwrap to whatever size the text pane happens to be. if i set it to soft wrap, with a margin of 0, it doensn't wrap at all. i can put in a specific margin size (50 or whatever) and it wraps, but sometimes i have 2 files open side by side, sometimes only one (not to mention sometimes i make the jedit window smaller/bigger). i'd like it all to wrap automagically.
am i looking in the wrong place?
thanks in advance
buffer.save problem
Submitted by
jcb on
Thursday, 19 February, 2004 - 08:45
Hello,
I'm struggling with the following problem: I wrote a macro which takes the current buffer, saves it at first and runs then a command line utility via runToBuffer() on the saved file. If this was successful it closes the buffer and tries to save the new untitled one (which holds the results of the computation).
runCommandToBuffer(...);
waitForConsole(view);
jEdit.closeBuffer(view,buffer);
buffer.save(view, null, true);
But the last statement in my macro - buffer.save(view,null,true) does not save the buffer "Untiteld-1". The bean shell variable buffer still points to the formerly closed buffer. Is someone out there who knows how i could save the new buffer created by runToBuffer() in my macro? Any help is greatly appreciated!
