Just supply a regular expression, then choose whether to retain or remove the lines that can find match with the regular expression. It will remove all lines that can not find match, or all lines can find a match.
Hope you find it useful.

A couple small improvements over the old version.
- Fixed handling of primes
- Proper highlighting of namespaces
Unix -> Dos ans Dos -> Unix file format conversions.
Submitted by Anonymous on Wednesday, 27 October, 2004 - 16:37
well this is it:
I work on a windows based machine that connects to a unix machine. I like Jedit very very much. but anything i write has to be sent to the unix machine to be compiled. and then run. but if i save anything in windows format then the unix compliler gets very stroppy.
so im stuck either using the vi editor (no thanks) over a terminal or some other fancy windows editor that lets me save to unix file format. BUT... i really really (perhaps love) jedit... so please put this in a plugin or the program!
thanks
Capitalizing First Letters

How can one write a macro to capitalize the first letter of each word? My current approach would be...
search for words with the regular expression...
([a-zA-Z0-9])([a-zA-Z0-9])+
but can a variable eg, firstLetter, be assigned to $1 so that I can set...
firstLetter.toUpperCase();
Timeline for updating plugins for Java 5: Tiger?
Submitted by
Sawdusty on
Wednesday, 27 October, 2004 - 17:17
I've started developing in Tiger and am having troubles with a lot of my favourite JEdit plugins. JavaStyle crashes on generics, enums, and static imports. SideKick (using Jane) is not able to parse the structure of files containing Tiger structures. Dot Complete also seems to be confused on occasion, but not so often that it hinders my work.
I know that these and other Java-Centric plugins are going to require a major overhaul to include the new Tiger features. I was just wondering if there's any timeframe in mind for when they will be supported or partially supported.
Thanks,
Dusty
IncludesParser up for adoption
Submitted by
Sawdusty on
Wednesday, 27 October, 2004 - 17:24
I am the original developer of the IncludesParser plugin for JEdit. I don't think its been overly popular, but I am no longer interested in maintaining it and would like to give it up for adoption to a caring (or even just interested) developer.
The current version available with JEdit is 0.4. I've rewritten it from scratch in a version 0.5 that never made it into the plugin manager, as it does not support the JEdit 4.2 plugin API. This new version fixes a bug that causes 0.4 to break under Windows, and contains much cleaner code. It is available from http://www.buchuki.com/software.html; I suggest it as a base for anybody wanting to adopt IncludesParser.
If anybody is interested in maintaining this plugin, feel free to contact me (dgp@buchuki.com).

Plugin Manager Problems on jEdit 4.2final
Submitted by Anonymous on Wednesday, 27 October, 2004 - 19:40
I have just downloaded and installed jEdit on a brand new machine. The Plugin Manager does not seem to be able to download the plugin list. It can get a list of 4 mirrors but will not allow you to change from the default. This is not my first time around the park with jEdit but it is my first time with a problem of any kind with the Plugin Manager.
I am not behind a firewall.
Operating System: WindowsXP Home Edition.
Java Version: 1.5
Any help will be greatly appreciated

How to invoke new (Ruby) compiler / interpreter ? Console problem in 4.2 ?
Submitted by
itsme213 on
Wednesday, 27 October, 2004 - 20:50
I am using 4.2 on Windows 2K.
On the DOS command line I can type:
ruby myFile.rb
and it will run, show errors, show output, etc.
I have tried using the Console, and typing in "ruby myFile.rb" and I see nothing. No output, no errors. The little "spinner" icon starts spinning, presumably to show some process is running.
I wonder if my Console plug-in is working right. If I type "cd" it shows the result fine. If I type "dir /w" it does nothing, and again the spinner spins.
Help. What do I need to do?
How to Multiple Instances of jEdit?
Submitted by Anonymous on Wednesday, 27 October, 2004 - 21:36
Hi,
I am working on a plugin for jEdit, and I'm using jEdit for the coding. My problem is this: If I want to test my plugin I have to restart jEdit.
Is there a way to:
a) use multiple instances? (I downloaded the src, and compiled it to a different directory, with a different .jar, but when I run the .jar, it just brings up a copy of the jEdit instance that I already have open.
b) reload plugins?
c) do something else that I'm missing?
Sorry, I haven't RTFM, so feel free to scold me if it's in there.
Thanks,
Mike
Ctrl+TAB to switch buffers
Submitted by Anonymous on Thursday, 28 October, 2004 - 12:44
Hi, I'm used to use ctrl+tab in almost every "tabbed" software to switch buffers -- some apps do it in "stupid" way when ctrl+tab only moves focus to next tab (which I believe can be simulated in jEdit by redefining shortcuts binding) but I found no way to switch tabs (buffers) in a smart way - like Windows XP when using alt+tab: bring the most recently used buffer to the top.
Thank you for the solution. Pavel.
vi, Vimulator resurrected
Submitted by Anonymous on Thursday, 28 October, 2004 - 20:08
I've just switched from vim to jEdit, but have been a hard-core vi/vim user for almost 10 years. That said, I'm definitely a keyboard user, and am quite happy with vi's keystoke combinations. To that end, I've resurrected the Vimulator to work with the current version of jEdit, in addition to adding a bunch of additional keystokes, fixing a couple of bugs, and introducing a couple of new ones... I'm thinking about throwing all my changes together and posting them, but don't want to waste anyones time if there isn't any interest..... any interest?

Unable to debug Java application using JSwatPlugin
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 29 October, 2004 - 02:40
Hello People,
I installed JEdit and the JSwatPlugin to debug Java applications. Now I have a TestBanking.java and a package banking containing five other java files. I try to place a breakpoint at main itself in TestBanking.java When I select JSwatPlugin and there I click on "Start VM" I get the following error " An error occurred during execution of a JSwat action:java.lang.NullPointerException. For more information see Activity log".
I am unable to find why this error is popping up.
When I compile the same program from command line it compiles fine but gives a java.lang.NullPointerException at runtime.
Please advise. Error with code or I am not able to use the debugger properly.
Thanks in advance.
Problem with jEdit and Webdrive
Submitted by

Friday, 29 October, 2004 - 16:01
I'm using JEdit 4.2 along with webdrive 6.04 (i think...the latest version anyway).
The problem is, when I edit a file, the remote FTP doesn't like the #file# format that jEdit seems to create. so I can't simply save a file using jEdit on the webdrive, i have to save it elsewhere and then copy it onto the webdrive.
Is there any way around this problem?
Thanks a lot

Jumping Between Buffer Panes
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 29 October, 2004 - 19:07
I quite often split the main edit window into two pains. How can I use the keyboard to jump between the two panes. Note I am not talking about doced windows. I am talking about when you use the split buttons on the button bar.
Thanks!
jEdit is a great programmers tool
Tag completion (XML plugin)

From documentation:
"If the less-than symbol ("<") is typed and no other key is pressed within a specified delay (half a second by default), a tag list popup will be shown."
Popup doesn't work for me

What's wrong with that ?
How do I get lines in between { and } brackets?

I was just wondering how I could get the lines between the brackets like in this: http://www.jedit.org/index.php?page=screenshot&image=14 screenshot. Is it a plug-in? Or a setting? I've looked all over for this, so if anyone knows I'd be very thankful.
Setting environment variables in Console

In Jedit (4.2final) with the console plugin I'm not being able to set environment variables. More precisely, in the system console, and in a win2k system
set Path=C:\

With my best regards,

P.S: If this is not the right forum for this question, my appologies and plz direct me to the right forum.
