Auto "un-indent" (for keywords)
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 21 January, 2005 - 01:49
See http://community.jedit.org/?q=node/view/1935

I'd like an automatic "un-indent" next lines feature based on keywords. (Like UltraEdit has)
e.g typing "ENDIF" will cause that line, and subsequent lines to be un-indented.
This will be handy for several programming languages that don't use C-like structures using brackets, instead just using keywords to enclose IF, FOR etc. statements.

We develop an other java editor. Now we are using the mode-Files of jedit.
Is this ok for you?

How to "auto-detect" files saved in UTF-8?
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 21 January, 2005 - 11:24
Hi there!

I'm using JEdit to edit some files (mainly PHP and Python scripts) that needs to be encoded in UTF-8.
Even if I set the "auto detect" option "on" in open panel, JEdit always opens the files using the standard Cp1252 encoding instead of the UTF-8 one... does anybody know how to resolve this problem?
Thanks! Smiling

Kind regards,
Matteo

source formatting plugin for PHP
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 21 January, 2005 - 21:59
PHP is all over the place now... I use jEdit for all my php development even though there are PHP specific IDE's, nothin can beat jEdit. My one problem with it however is that there are no plugins to format PHP code. This would make my day.
possible? Repeat last command in the console and return the focus to the text area?
Submitted by Anonymous on Saturday, 22 January, 2005 - 00:54
I mapped the F5 key to run the last command in the console plugin. It's almost perfect for debuging python programs. It would be perfect if the focus remained where it previously were.

Any macro or simple way to change the plugin to do this?

If it can be done with macros i'd even try to make a jython one. Just need some directions.

Thanks
Java-syntax braces formatting
Submitted by Anonymous on Saturday, 22 January, 2005 - 01:17
Is there any plugin to format Java code like this:
function f(int a) {
    if (a > 0) {
        System.out.println("xxx"); } }
Note the right braces on the same line as the last statement in blocks. (It's the Python style!)
Question about the console plugin
Submitted by william on Saturday, 22 January, 2005 - 03:45
Is there any variable of the console plugin to get the filename without the extension? (e.g. If the filename is HelloWorld.cs is there any variable to get HelloWorld ?) I can only find $f for the full path and $n for filename with extension

thanks
Dual monitor woes win2k
Submitted by Anonymous on Saturday, 22 January, 2005 - 11:40
Dear all,

let me first give kudos to the developers of jedit. I did not touch vim ever since I came accross it half a year ago. (Ok, expect on shh remote shell that is ). _Really_ handy all purpose thingy!

Thanks to this thread http://community.jedit.org/?q=node/view/1651 I was succesfuly able to resolve some issues related to slow scroll speeds when starting jedit on the second monitor. (However, as this is my favorite one while the first mainly serves as documentation browser, I start jedit on the first, move it to the second. I could not find s.th. similar to the POWERPLAY tweaks mentioned in above thread.)

Now, here is my problem:
Every time I would launch a dialog ("file open, search etc.) jedit "forgot" the settings for position and size and squeezes the boxes in the horizontal direction. This only happens when using the second monitor, running on the first works fine.
Has anybody some advise for this? I could not find anything in FAQ/Bugrep./Forums, and maybe it's just a too exotic behaviour to file a bug report for this.
My setup:
- ATI Radeon 9600
- Catalyst 04.9
- 2 x 1280 x 1024

Thanks for any hints,
Jakob
qusestion about compile
Submitted by Anonymous on Saturday, 22 January, 2005 - 13:00
After installing the console plugin how to use the mean item "compile current buffer" in the plugins->console menu. A message box said "There is no compiler associated with this buffer. You can specify compilers on a mode-specific basis in the Utilities -> gobal Options dialog box." But I should go to which sub meun of "gobal option"? I guess it should be "editing" but I can't find related option. Can anyone tell the detail step to set that?
thanks

can jedit be made as a green software?
Submitted by Anonymous on Sunday, 23 January, 2005 - 09:10
I found that the files of jedit are located in ~/.jedit and the install directory. But a problem occurs when I use jedit in my school. After I logout the computer will reset everything of the computer including the home directory. So the setting is lost. Is it possible to make jedit place everything inside the install directory?
can the buffer switcher bar be customed?
Submitted by Anonymous on Sunday, 23 January, 2005 - 09:24
Since there are plugin for switching between buffer, if we use those plugin and the buffer swicher bar is always there I think it wasted the screen space. I suggest the buffer switcher can be customed to be enable and disable.
A Console Commando should remember its settings
Submitted by Sasq on Monday, 24 January, 2005 - 07:46
It would make my life much easier if the the variables you change in the Commando GUI to execute a command was remembered between invocations - it takes time to (for instance) change from Release to Debug or changing the make rule every time you compile your project.
C-COMMA under MacOS
Submitted by kh on Monday, 24 January, 2005 - 12:11
I am pretty new to jEdit, so I might be missing something basic. According to the manual and the shortcut panel in "Global Options". C-COMMA should activate the incremental search bar. But what it does on my Mac is open the Global Options panel. This is probably related to C-COMMA being the Mac default shortcut for "preferences", but then jEdit seems to get around most of the other default shortcuts, so why not this one?
Weird undo?
Submitted by Anonymous on Monday, 24 January, 2005 - 13:08
Does anyone else think that jEdit 4.2 has pretty weird undo? E.g. I type text:

Brown fox has red nose.

Then I copy "Brown fox" to clipboard and paste it to look like this:

Brown fox had red nose. Brown fox

And then I fire undo.

Expected result:

Brown fox had red nose.

Real result:

(all removed)

Pretty weird Smiling

PHPParser 1.1.0 Breaks HTML tag completion in PHP files
Submitted by Anonymous on Monday, 24 January, 2005 - 22:37
After updating to PHPParser 1.1.0, jEdit 4.2final will not do HTML tag completion in PHP mode. I manually downgraded ErrorList to 1.3.1, SideKick to 0.3.1, and PHPParser to 1.0.2. Everything began working again as expected.

So I decided to manually update the plugins one at a time to see which of the recent plugin updates broke this (much desired) functionality. So I upgraded them in the following order:

ErrorList to 1.3.2 => OK
SideKick to 0.3.2 => OK
PHPParser to 1.1.0 => BROKEN

Perhaps it's the combination of the 2 or 3 of them together. But ErrorList 1.3.2, SideKick 0.3.2, and PHPParser 1.0.2 all play together nicely.
