Console Plug-in: compilers/interpreters
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 14 May, 2004 - 04:17
I'm desperately trying to get the Console plug-in to complile/run TCL scripts in the current buffer. In the Utilities, Global Options, Console, Compile & Run window it lets me choose a compiler and interpreter but TCL is not one of the compilers in the list offered.

How can I get the Console plug-in to use the TCL compiler/interpreter installed on my machine?

Thanks,

Faster startup
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 14 May, 2004 - 08:10
(I know about the background mode.) If JEdit could be faster at startup it would be great. Maybee something to try could be SwingWT at https://sourceforge.net/projects/swingwt.

Buffertabs unsorted
Submitted by Anonymous on Saturday, 15 May, 2004 - 00:11
Hello all,
i use Buffertabs plugin, but i would want to know if there is a way to prevent it to alphabetically order the tabs.
I would want the tabs to keep the order in which I opened them.
I know i can drag'n'drop the tabs to re-order them. But if i open another buffer, the tab will be inserted in middle of the others tabs instead of just being "appened" at the end.

In fact i only want the new tabs to be appened at the end.
I've looked into the options but i didn't saw anything about this (me blind ?).

Maybe there is another plugin doing this already but i don't know it :/

I'm not scared of changing the plugin's source to feet my needs if needed.

I hope you can help me.

short cut keys for hopping between open documents
Submitted by blc1 on Monday, 17 May, 2004 - 13:18
Is there a short cut keys available for hopping between open documents when the screens are split? In many editors, I can use control and tab keys to do that.

Thanks

Insert a page break?

Is there a way to insert a page break (for printing) other than using the character map plugin to insert the ascii character?

Thanks.

JSwat doesn't resolve line numbers if compile with AntFarm, but does so with JCompiler
Submitted by PauloSargaco on Tuesday, 18 May, 2004 - 09:12
Hi there.

Does anyone know why this could happen?

So more info to better get the picture:
I have jEdit 4.1 Final, JSwatPlugin 1.5.3, JCompiler 1.5.0 and AntFarm 1.3.1 (AntHelper 0.8.2). JCompiler is using javac from Java 2 SKD 1.4.2 and in my build file used by AntFarm, I'm including
fork="true" executable="C:\j2sdk1.4.2_04\bin\javac.exe"
compiler="javac1.4">

What happens is that, if I compile using AntFarm, JSwatPlugin (and the standalone version of JSwat also) can't resolve the line numbers. However, when I compile using JCompiler, JSwat works fine.

Does anyone know what am I doing wrong?

Cheers.

how to assign shortcuts to user-defined actions?
Submitted by uhuebner on Tuesday, 18 May, 2004 - 10:17
Hello,

I have two questions.

1. I want to set the edit mode (highlighting) to pl-sql with a shortcut. Entering buffer options and scrolling down to the edit mode is a bit laborious.
How can I do this? I found out that I can do this by entering "buffer.mode=pl-sql" in the action bar. So I think i must be possible to create an action with it an assign a shortcut to it. But I have no clue how to do this and the help is a bit confusing.

2. Almost the same as the above. I want to insert text templates using shortcuts. Right now I use "abbreviations" or the Template plug-in but it would be much faster if I could use shortcuts (e.g. ALT+number). Is it possible to assing shortcuts to certain templates?

Can anybody help me out?
Kind regards

buffer selection / beep disabling
Submitted by Andrea Treccani on Tuesday, 18 May, 2004 - 14:39
I started from yesterday using Jedit 4.1 final on my Linux platform and I really think this is the best free multiplatform editor you can find today.
I have just two little problems:

- I don't understand how to change the default "buffer selection" bar (I mean the bar showing the opened files) into a multi button bar (a button for each file). I know this is possible because I saw some screenshot showing Jedit configured in that way, but I still don't find the configuration option for this purpos.
- I would like to disable PC beeping when I try to go over limits with cursor (for example I have a beep when cursor is in the home corner and I push up arrow key). Is possible to disable this annoying feature mofifying some option?

Thanks in advance to anybody would help me.

XSLT and Java 1.4
Submitted by Anonymous on Thursday, 20 May, 2004 - 21:56
I tried following the directions to enable the XSLT plugin to work with Java 1.4
I moved xalan.jar, xercesImpl.jar and xmlParserAPIs.jar to
C:\Program Files\jEdit\jars\endorsed and added the directory to the jedit startup as follows

"C:\j2sdk1.4.2_03\bin\javaw.exe" -mx96m -Djava.endorsed.dirs="C:\Program Files\jEdit\jars\endorsed" -jar "C:\Program Files\jEdit\jedit.jar"

The problem is that I get failures for XML.jar and XMLIndenter.jar due to dependencies.

Activity Log output:

[error] ErrorListDialog$ErrorEntry: C:\Program Files\jEdit\jars\XML.jar:

Do I need multiple copies of the jars? Can I fix the dependencies?

Increasing JVM memory when launching jedit under OS X?
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 21 May, 2004 - 01:04
I am launching jEdit 4.13 from the dock - what do i need to edit to cause jedit to run with a larger RAM allotment (OS 10.3)?

In the jEdit help files it is stated:
"One solution that often works is to set or increase the allocation of memory to the heap for Java objects created by the Java Virtual Machine in which jEdit is running. Add the command line option -mxXXm to the options passed to the version of the Java application loader you are using (such as java, java.exe or javaw.exe). In place of the XX in the option, use a multiple of 16 between 32 and 128. If you already are using the option, increase the numeric portion of the -mxXXm parameter in increments of 16. Many users have good results using 48 or 64, but you should try different values for the best result on your installation."

...how do i apply this to OS X? I tried some edits to info.plist within the package, but i must have got the syntax wrong because jedit would no longer launch.
