backspace unindent
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 7 May, 2004 - 06:03
SciTE has this feature, which is the reverse of "tab indent". With this, I can press backspace once to clear an indentation, instead of pressing it n times (n = tab width). I know the existances of shift-tab and alt-left, but "backspace unindent" can be more efficient in some cases, plus I already get used to it
How to deal with buffer.isPerformingIO() ?
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 7 May, 2004 - 16:13
Hi I try to load file and perfomes some transformation on it then save on a loop of file.
But I am having a error on I/O perming so I try to wait for the
buffer to do it's job but then I only manage to have a Message instead of a error
Thread.sleep block Jedit an empty loop too.
this is the only working code but I like it to be without Message.
while(buffer.isPerformingIO()){
//this.wait(2);
//Thread.sleep(10);
Macros.message(view, nBFichier+" buffer.isPerformingIO()" );
}
Actually check to code to see what mode to go into

Right now (as far as I know), jEdit checks the file extension (.c or .java for example) to decide what editing mode to go into. However, both C, Objective-C and C++ all use .h files. And the default is to go into Objective-C. Would it be possible to have jEdit actually check the code (for instance, if there's "class" inside a .h file, it's obviously c++) as well as the extension? This way I won't have to manually change the editing mode (which affects the syntax highlighting).
Encryption

I think that If a feature such as encryption was added to jedit, it would make it that much better. Because I have not found an encryption utility for mac os [ any version ].
The kinds of encryption I am thinking of is 128 bit to 256 bit encryption with a password. [ you can't decrypt something without the password used to encrypt it.].
Compatibility: JEditPane vs. JEditTextArea
Hello,
i'm using a java-editor-application developed for my own needs.
Now i'm interested in migrating from JEditPane to JEditTextArea. And now the question: is there anywhere a documentation if there are incompatibilites between these two components.
I've read, that there will be a stand-alone component of the JEditTextArea. Is this right? And if yes, when do you think, will it be published.
Is there also a possibility to take the syntax-highlighting and add it to a standard JEditPane without using JEditTextArea? The Syntax-Highlighting found at http://syntax.jedit.org/ is a little bit out of date, so this isn't interesting to me.
The highlighting as a bean, that could be plugged in a JEditPane would be really great. Are there any ideas, if that's possible?
Thanks for your help! Kind regards......
Server ? networkAccess ?
is it possible to access a Jedit Instance on computer A from computer B ?

Show size of selected text

Docking windows open to outside
Submitted by

I am using jEdit not at full screen and fit it's size to the text. So when I open a docking window it reduces my editing window. It would be great if there would be an option to expand docking windows to the outside leaving the editing window untouched.
Thanks

Is there any way to create custom highlighting for file types not listed (e.g. custom test scripts etc)
A 'Go to definition' code browser macro. (Open_Selected_Class.bsh v1.3 by Steve Ewart)
Submitted by

Highlight a class name, run the macro and it will automatically open the source for that class.
Similar to "Go to definition" in Visual Studio. Very useful when browsing source code. Could not imagine coding Java in JEdit without this.
It can access many different source paths; your projects source, JDK source, etc. Just modify the 'searchPath' at the top of the macro to reflect where your JDK source code (or any source code) is located.
Source code for the highlighted class will be opened if:
The cursor is on a class name in any part of the file AND
there is a import for the class OR
there is a wildcard import containing the class OR
the class is in the current package (current directory) OR
the class is in the java.lang source directory (searchPath must be set)
the class is in a different project than current project (searchPath must be set)
The cursor is on a line with an import statement
A fully qualified class is highlighted (not necessarily an import statement)
Limitations:
It cannot open a file if the package cannot be appended to any part of the current file's directory structure.
It only works with java files, other languages are not supported.
Will only find (scroll to) inner classes if it is in an import.
java.lang.ClassCastException at org.gjt.sp.jedit.buffer.KillRing.propertiesChanged(KillRing.java:49)

Hello,
I don't think this is an FAQ, I've looked around and can't seem to find anything like this either on the forums or on the jedit.org site...
When starting jEdit, the progress bar on the splash screen stops at about 45% and jEdit never starts up. When I try to run it from the command line, I get the following:
D:\Program Files\jEdit 4.2pre12>java -jar jedit.jar
Exception in thread "main" [error] main: java.lang.ClassCastException
[error] main: at org.gjt.sp.jedit.buffer.KillRing.propertiesChanged(KillRing.java:49)
[error] main: at org.gjt.sp.jedit.jEdit.propertiesChanged(jEdit.java:879)
[error] main: at org.gjt.sp.jedit.jEdit.main(jEdit.java:401)
Is this anything I can fix (a problem in my profile or something like that)? This is on one of the machines at school. At home I never had this problem. It started happening after starting jEdit once (the first time it started up correctly, but I haven't been able to get it to start up since).
Any suggestions welcome.

Hi there,
I'm using Jedit 4.1 final and SQL plugin (0.97), when using comments like this
/**
comment goes here
*/
in the plsql code the execution of the buffer failes on the / character (flush buffer ?), does anybody know how to resolve this ? I'm using pldoc to generate javadoc style documentation so I need the /** */ comments instead of --
Thanks

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,
CJ
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.
