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?

10nx,

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.

I am a long time jEdit user and I recently upgraded to Sun Java JDK1.5 and jEdit 4.2final and find jEdit to be unusable now because it keeps switching window focus to the previous applications window. It does this whenever I open a new file, finish a search or click OK on any jEdit popup window. So, say I open a new file, then once it loads, it automatically flips to Firefox, which I have running in the background. I should also mention I am running this on Linux.

Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug I should submit?

I have a Unix file system that I exposed to my Windows machine using Samba. The problem is that "File System Browser" in JEdit seems to take a very long time (~30 sec) to load the directory listing from this mounted drive. Using windows explorer I can load the same directory listing in about 3 sec (10 times faster). The directory has about 130 files.

I assume that JEdit is doing some type of query on a pre file basis to gather more info about the file before showing the list in the "File System Browser"??

Any idea what might be causing this and is there is a way to speed this up?

Hi. I'm having trouble with the look and feel options. jEdit comes with 3 default L&Fs: Metal, Motif and Windows, but whenever I change it, it is completely ignored, and I can only get the Metal look. I've tried installing the LookAndFeel plugin, but only two worked: Kunststoff and Metouia. The others, Skin and Oyoaha say there are some missing (nameless) files.

Is there a way to make these work? How about the Windows look?

I have the problem both under Windows (XP) and Linux (SuSE 9).

I miss some feature of HomeSite - "html table generator". It is button,.. when used, I can "draw" table, set aligning, spacing etc. Then it generates XHTML code to current buffer. Really helpfull feature

Trying to write a macro for removing empty lines I found that the beanshell interpreter breaks on the regular expression definition
String blankLine = new String("^\s$");
This is very annoying because working with regular expressions without backslash is simply impossible.
Error reads:
Sourced file: /home/kister/.jedit/macros/Shrink_Blank_Lines.bsh Token Parsing Error: Lexical error at line 18, column 41. Encountered: "\\" (92), after : "\'^":
Versions are: jedit 4.2 final on Linux and Blackdown JDK 1.4.1
Any help would be highly recommended.

I would really appreciate plug-in, that would show all classes etc in CSS files (something like CodeBrowser in PHP)

Thanx

Hi

I was wondering if there is any way to debug plugins inside jEdit.

Hello, often i have to share text files between linux & Windows. How can i change the 0x03 Byte at the end of Windows Text to something ? Thanks horst.

I was just playing around with the "Editor Scheme Selector" pluging and accidently change my scheme color. Now i can't get the colors that i had set up for syntax highlighting. I mainly use jEdit for PHP and CSS. Does anyone have a screenshot of their PHP syntax highlight colors that i can use to reference?
