proper bidi support
Submitted by Anonymous on Sunday, 19 December, 2004 - 15:57
As not being a Java developer, I don't know if adding BiDi support can be done in Java, or not yet.

I'm using jEdit for all my code-writing needs, and I wish it can support BiDi to allow me to write/edit Arabic.
Currently, with 4.2, I'm able to write Arabic, but it doesn't align properly with other english text.
also, If I tried to select any word of the arabic sentence, the selection doesn't seem to select the word highlighted, so when I begin typing to edit the selected word, it actually edits a completely different word.

Cheers,

Macros for use with Progress 4GL (ProgressMacros.zip v1 by Patrick Tingen)
Submitted by ptingen on Monday, 20 December, 2004 - 07:27
Some macros that can come in handy when working with Progress 4GL:

The macros are:
 - Keywords_to_Lower_Case.bsh   
   This macro converts keywords to lower case.

 - Keywords_to_Upper_Case.bsh   
   This macro converts keywords to upper case (surprise eh?)

 - Make_Get_and_Set_Methods.bsh 
   This macro can make get and set functions for a variable. Place
   the cursor on a line containing 'define variable ' and activate 
   the macro. It will create get and set macros. It also works with 
   multiple define statements. Just select all lines and activate
   the macro. 

    define variable CustomerName as character.
    
    /* Name: getCustomerName
     * Desc: Returns the value of CustomerName.
     */
    function: getCustomerName returns null:
      return CustomerName.
    end function. /* getCustomerName*/ 
    
    
    /* Name: setCustomerName
     * Desc: Sets the value of CustomerName.
     */
    function: setCustomerName returns logical (par1 as null):
      assign CustomerName = par1.
      return true.
    end function. /* setCustomerName*/ 
   
 - ProcedureList.bsh
   This macro activates an advanced search command and gives
   a list of all internal procedures, triggers and functions in 
   your code. It presents them using the hypersearch panel. 

Have fun!

Average plugins size
Submitted by ajba74 on Wednesday, 22 December, 2004 - 13:49
Greetings,

Rookie question: what is the average size of a plugin? I am asking because I use a slow dialup connection. Is it required much bandwidth to keep my jedit updated?

Thanks you all,
Arnaldo

JEdit as ZDE (project, functions, vars, viewer; languages check support)
Submitted by Anonymous on Sunday, 26 December, 2004 - 12:22
Hello all!

I'm trying jEdit at the third time, but now I want to move on it completely... =)
Just have some problems questions: what should I install (which plugins/macros/...) to get:
- project files viewer;
- variables, functions (in the hole project or just in file) viewer;
- support for PHP 5, Standart ML, C/C++. I mean feature just like in ZDE (Zend Development Editor) - editor launch copmiler/interpriter and give notices/errors/warnings to some window.

As far as I understand, there are all that possibilities there, but I tried to install all plugins and macros and they do not work. Some of them do not work at all, some of them can't be understanded (even after reading help).

Thank you in advance,
/Alexandre.

jedit and java 1.5
Submitted by Anonymous on Wednesday, 29 December, 2004 - 15:49
How do I use jedit with java 1.5? Can't seem to find any plugins or anything that help. Will it be long before jedit is released with 1.5 support?
Highlighting problem
Submitted by Anonymous on Wednesday, 29 December, 2004 - 16:02
Hello,

I created a edit-scheme which should recognize everything
between a * and a ; as a comment if there is only whitespace between
the preceeding ; (in the same line) and the beginning * .

Example:

i=3*j; *comment1; *comment2;

Here I want the signs till the first ; not to be considered as comment.
The two following parts between * and ; should be considered as comments.

I defined RULES with the SPAN_REGEXP command, but highlighting works
only for the first comment in the line. Somehow the ending ; of the first
comment is not considered as the begin of a SPAN_REGEXP.
Now I introduce a second ; in my example like follows:

i=3*j; *comment1;; *comment2;

Here also the second comment is recognised by the the SPAN_REGEXP:
[;][[:space:]]+[*]

Does anybody know a solution to this problem?
Thanks a lot in advance

PHP edit mode (php.xml v2005-03-18 by blueyed)
Submitted by blueyed on Thursday, 30 December, 2004 - 05:19
Merged the version from Scott with the CVS version and wrote a PHP script to extract the functions, classes and aliases from php.net/zend.org automatically. Besides there are some more changes I've made with help from Scott regarding the handling of variables in literals and class variables/methods in general. A raw definition of token type usage:
  • FUNCTION: own functions
  • KEYWORD1: language constructs (__FILE__, break, extends, ..)
  • KEYWORD2: internal functions (PHP, xdebug, SimpleTest/PHPUnit), DTD tags
  • KEYWORD3: variable names (plus true, false, null)
  • KEYWORD4: class relevant things (definitions, methods, vars)
  • LITERAL1: literals
  • LITERAL2: HTML entities
  • COMMENT1: "#", "/* */"
  • COMMENT2: "//" and HTML comments
  • COMMENT3: PHPdoc
