Problem with Tildes and accents in Mac OS X
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 10 September, 2004 - 00:59
Hi,

I tried the Mac Os X package and the Java-based installer and I have the same problem with that. Both of them was the 4.2 Final version.

I can read accents and tildes from a file created in other text editor, but I can't type accents and tildes with the Keyboard. So, I can't type characters like à or á.


I'm using Mac Os X 10.3.5

In my settings I've the Keyboard as Spanish ISO, I tested with Spanish non-ISO but it doesn't solve the problem.

jEdit is a great Text Editor, but I need to resolve it for use this Editor in my projects.
jEdit 4.2 Mac OS X package
Submitted by krisk on Friday, 10 September, 2004 - 10:03
There were some errors in the original Mac OS X package, including an old Mac OS Plugin. You can find the new version on the downloads page. If the file you have downloaded is jedit42.dmg (3437443 bytes), then you do not need to worry about downloading it again.
C# support
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 10 September, 2004 - 13:17
Does anybody use jEdit to develop in C#? I am quite new to jEdit and don't know how to force it to simply compile and run a code. Thanks for help.
Advanced EVAL in commando
Submitted by Anonymous on Sunday, 12 September, 2004 - 12:12
Very common is that some control in commando is populated using EVAL attribute, for example to populate "Source file" control, write EVAL="buffer.getPath()" as an attribute of the FILE_ENTRY element (BTW, commando.dtd is wrong and says that no such element is allowed, but all works). What if I want to write some EVAL-expression that has quotes inside, for example buffer.getPath().endsWith(".java") ? buffer.getPath() : "" ? Can anybody help me?
Stateless Console and how to overcome it
Submitted by Anonymous on Sunday, 12 September, 2004 - 19:09
When I want to compile C# source code within jEdit I encounter a problem with nonpersistent (stateless) Console plugin. Every command is executed in newly initialized shell which is a big problem for .NET Framework SDK. It uses sdkvars.bat to estabilish development environment within the shell (it sets apropriate paths etc.) but this settings seems to be valid only for one session. For example to compile "source.cs", i need to write:

...> sdkvars.bat
[some output from the bat]
...> csc source.cs


But how can I acomplish this within stateless console plugin?
Auto-Indent for parentheses and operators?
Submitted by Anonymous on Sunday, 12 September, 2004 - 22:08
Is there a way to get jEdit to auto-indent using certain characters on the previous line as a guide? E.g. not having to press tab or make leading spaces while typing:
if(a == b
   && a == c
   && b !=c)
  cout << "Oh my god, " << endl
       << "this makes no sense!" << endl
       << ((1 + 2 + 3
            + 4 + 5 + 6)
           / 20.0) << endl;
emacs does some of this in it's c++ mode: '<<' automatically aligns with the first '<<' on the previous line, and anything after an unmatched '(' auto-aligns with the character after that '('. Or maybe you have to press tab to prompt it, but then it automatically finds the correct place to put it.

jEdit seems cooler than emacs, though, so it would be nice if there was a way to get it to do this! It would save a lot of time for me...if it's not possible now, would this sort of thing be possible with a plugin?

I think moving the build system over to maven will make a lot of difference.

Syntax Highlighting (package org.gjt.sp.jedit.syntax) - How?
Submitted by Anonymous on Monday, 13 September, 2004 - 10:25
API changes for v 4.2 include the following:

>The org.gjt.sp.jedit.syntax package can now be used in other programs.
>All you need to provide is error handling and logic for locating the
>XML mode files. See the package documentation for details

I don't really understand how I can use the package in my own program.
The comments within the API doc are pretty short :-|
Do I just have to use my own JEditTextArea instance? Maybe some of you
have already tried this feature and could give me some advice.

Many Thanks,
Felix
Encrypt current buffer (Encrypt_Current.bsh v0.1 by David Mlejnek)

Using arrays in macros ...

How do I successfully create an array of 'int' ?
what happened to indentation (out)lines?
Submitted by mcmilwj on Tuesday, 14 September, 2004 - 15:41
I recall a few releases ago (maybe it was a beta I was using) that there was a capability to have indented blocks outlined with a vertical gray lines in the text edit area. I no longer see a way to activate this feature. Is this implemented by a plugin or was it deemed to problematic and therefore removed? Here's hoping it is still possible and I've just missed some obvious setting.
