It's killing me! Every time a new dialog window is spawned, it appears BEHIND the main view window. Very annoying! lol I searched through forums and google and found nada.

I have a problem with creating new mode - no syntax highlighitng! I create new mode and have a problem. OK, I (probbably) made error when creating new one. Then create new in next steps: 1. Copy existing mode (pascal.xml) to new (newmode.xml) 2. In catalog file added Try to use this new mode but without syntax higlighting? And yes, I select Buffer option/Edit mode: NEWMODE! Why syntax highlighiting doesn't work? Please help, Misko

Currently, I have a lot of option in Character encoding:

ISO-8859-XX
UTF-XX
Windows-XXXX
...

But, old DOS CP 852 is missing.

How to create new one or where to get it?

Misko

How do you determine the current edit mode within a macro ?

After switching computers, range selection with my mouse has stopped working in jEdit. That is, I click and drag the mouse, but it no longer selects anything. Rather, the carat stays where it was.

Range selection still works in all the other apps I try. Double clicking in jEdit selects a word (and triple clicking selects the line), and shift-cursor keys still select. It's just range selection with the mouse that seems to have stopped working. (And it isn't a case of the mouse buttons somehow having gotten swapped, either.)

Has anyone else run into this sort of thing?

Version = 4.2 final.

In a multi monitor enviroment jEdit have some problems with the window management.

Hi all,

I've been an avid jEdit user for a number of years now and always look forward to new versions and plugins. However, I haven't seen any new jEdit versions for some time now, and wondering if development is still ongoing?

Thanks,
Paul

Dear all,

I use a nice MSWin app called Allchars (http://allchars.zwolnet.com/) that allows me to type all kinds of accented and special characters using my qwerty keyboard and CTRL+keys sequences. In fact, I couldn't work without it.

Before that, I was using the "Accents" Jedit plugin to type those characters. It was great, but it was a bit painful to cut and paste text from jedit to other apps (mail client, web browser, etc.) all the time.

However, there is a serious drawback to the use of Allchars when using Jedit. In fact, having both Allchars and Jedit running can cause serious MSWin crashes. (I mean, complete crash and reboot of the system.)

I have no clue why Jedit conflicts with Allchars so badly. (NB: the "Accents" plugin is not enabled when crashes occur.) I guess that there might be something related to CTRL+keys sequences since both Allchars and Jedit are using them to issue commands.

Since Jedit is the only app I know that conflicts with Allchars (I am using Mozilla apps and OpenOffice without problem, and they have lots of CTRL+keys sequences) I was wondering if this conflict could be the symptom of a hidden bug or design problem in Jedit?

In any case, I thank you in advance for your help.

David.

When in Rectangle mode , if I try to use Vertical input ( typing the same text to a couple of line vertically)
I cant use TAB , it only puts one vertical TAb and then exits the Vertical mode?
Any suggestions?

Right now, there seem not to be a way to view a value of a Date variable. Or have I missed it? Are there plans to add this feature?

If jEdit supported regular expression variable-length indentation 'brackets', then xml indenting could be supported natively, like so:

<PROPERTY NAME="lineOpeningBrackets" VALUE="&lt;[[:alphanum:]]+&gt;" />
<PROPERTY NAME="lineClosingBrackets" VALUE="&lt;[[:alphanum:]]+&gt;" />

Multiple brackets could be attained via the (bracket1|bracket2|...) clause in regular expressions.

Not only xml/html indenting, but all those edit modes with limited or no indentation support could finally support indentation correctly.

For making annoying ASCII-Formats (without enough whitespaces in it) easier to read I want to colorize different columns with different colors (i.e. columns 1-10 = yellow, columns 11-20 = red, and so on).

Does have anyone an idea to realize that?

Thanks
Robert

Is it possible to have jedit do something like pycrust or SPE, where typing...


import os
os.


would pop up a dialogue with a list of methods and properties (preferably including doc strings) from the object/module preceding '.'?

If so, what would be required to set this up?

I've combed through the forums and search and I am not certain if this is documented, or can even be done.

I work a lot with ant scripts and many are not named build.xml. I am looking for a way to reference xml files other then build.xml as ant file. Is this possible, and if so how?

Thanks!

Text insertion before a number on 10,000 text lines possible?

I figure it could be possible to do it with a macro or action script of sorts however one would need to start from the last line forward as the text inserted will need to be 3 lines or more itself and that would make the line seeking not work properly if started from the beginning.. Below is example of what I am trying to achieve..

111111
222222
333333
444444
555555

turned into this 10,000 times automated in a batch file?

Please post a reply as what application I should be using if any you know of out there?

below is what the end 10,000 lines turned into 40,000 should look like...

SAME TEXT SAME TEXT 111111
SAME TEXT SAME TEXT
SAME TEXT SAME TEXT
SAME TEXT SAME TEXT 222222
SAME TEXT SAME TEXT
SAME TEXT SAME TEXT
SAME TEXT SAME TEXT 333333
SAME TEXT SAME TEXT
SAME TEXT SAME TEXT
SAME TEXT SAME TEXT 444444
SAME TEXT SAME TEXT
SAME TEXT SAME TEXT
SAME TEXT SAME TEXT 555555

If you think I will have do this by hand please also post a reply.. Thanks for reading this.. 2 word comments are fine.. Cheers
