jedit macro newbie; jedit user for a bit; java journeyman.

In a macro, is possible to get the currently selected item in the filesystem browser?

so in my random hacks I have gotten this..

doc = view.getDockableWindowManager();
names = doc.getRegisteredDockableWindows();

with the idea that if I had a handle of the file system browser (currently docked) then I could interrogate file system browser for the currently selected file(s) - it seems there are some getSelected methods in the VFSBrowser....on the right track?

I'm using JEdit to edit Java source code. I use the TAB key to indent. It seems to work just fine until suddenly the TAB key seems to stop working. That is, when I press the TAB key at the start of a new line to indent it, nothing happens.

I have found that if I close the file, exit Jedit, then try editing the same file again, the TAB key again seems to work properly, for a while. After a while, the TAB key again seems to stop responding.

I have no idea what I am doing wrong.

Hello

I feel like I overlooked something obvious, but anyway: here's my problem - the xml plugin doesn't recognize the xhtml doctype if it's not at the beginning of file. I have a file with some php code (which doesn't output anything) followed by some xhtml and I need that php on the beginning because of headers. Is there any way to make the XML plugin ignore the php code and recognize the doctype even if it's not on the first line?

How do I prevent jedit for associating files with itself after they are saved? I want to preserve current association and not allow jedit to change it.

thanx

is any possibility of turning on automatic completion of " and ' in PHP scipts? i'am used from other editors, when i write " or ', automaticly second quotation mark appears.
thanks

Current engine of syntax highlighting is great!
There is just one snag...
Theoretically I want ability to define of own token types (colors) and parser rules in mode files like in Vim.

Is this feature?

How build jEdit from source code on Windows platform ?

I am tired of to type "System.out.println".
How can I create my constant used phrases and easy to import?

Hello.
I've downloaded and installed the console plugin and his dependencies.
After the installation in typed bash in the "System" Console, the prompt appeared
and I tested my *.sh scripts. Fine.
But it only works one time. When I try to start bash on the next day the two animated arrows
(recyling icon) "turn around" but there appears no promt.
After a while when I type e.g. ls there's the following error message
"/bin/bash: line 1: ls: command not found"
I think its curious that it works only the first time after the installation.
Can you help me?

Running the Windows Installer, I get the error message

"Setup unable to find a JDK or Java Runtime 1.3 or higher"

I have installed JDK 1.4, and my JAVA_HOME environment variable points to this
directory. Also I am able to run other Java applications, such as ant. What else
could be the reason for this error message? What other environment variables
should I check?

When I registered at jEdit Community, my registration data also contained
a "Drupal ID", which looks like an email address - in my case, it is
rovf@community.jedit.org. Where is the mailbox associated with this address?

Hi,
do you know how can I interact with JEdit text area from a plugin?

When I open a file using jEdit filesystem explorer, I have a chance to right-click it and choose an apropriate encoding. But what if I open the file thru drag&drop and jEdit fails to recognize encoding correctly? Is there any chance to tell it what encoding it should use?

Does anyone know where I can find some help info on either Structure Nrowser or Code Browser. I would prefer Structure Browser as I am using Linux and have no idea how to install ctags 5.5 to try and get Code Browser to work.
I would like to know how to set up a tag so that the "broswers" list them in the broswer pane.
If anyone has any help files or can write a step by step of how to set up a tag, I would appreciate it.
Thanks for your time.

PS. I normally use UltraEdit and would like a working function list in my jEdit if possible.
PPS. Is therre another way to do Column Mode other than holding the CTRL and using the mouse? It's not as good/usable as the UltraEdit one currently.

It would be great if there was an option to have word completion work across all open buffers, rather than just the current one. For example, if I have a C++ header file and am working in the .cpp file, it would be nice to be able to still have completions work from the .h.

This kind of works if you open up multiple views (the completion will be drawn from all buffers currently in views), but especially for languages that lack good code completion in jEdit (i.e., most non-Java languages), the more extensive word completion would be a great boon.

So...when is 5.0 coming?

I am using jEdit on Windows to check and edit files and scripts on an HP-UX server. This all works almost perfect, but if I want to look who's the owner or what is the modification time of a file, I have to switch to Reflection.

It would help me a lot if owner and timestamp would be displayed in the FTP file list.

I use implicit folding a lot and I find it quite frustrating not to be able to navigate in the files using them. This could provide code browsing for any file type and I don't think it is very complicated to do.
