Hi, I know there is a way for Jedit to outline the matching tag with any color given, but is there a way to have it set a background color for the matching tag instead of just outlining it?

Thanks.

Is there a way to not display the "." period at the end of each line. I find it very hard to edit anything with jedit because the language I use already uses periods at the end of line. Having to periods at the end kind of throws me off. Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

I run Jedit on Ubuntu Warty, Kernel 2.6.8, Gnome 2.8, and if I use the "gnome clipboard daemon", copy and past don't work in Jedit...
I have tryed Jedit 4.2 and 4.3pre2 and the probleme is the same.

Is there a plugin that will create a menu with manually addable items for files (kind of like the Bookmarks menu in a web browser)?

I know about the "Favorites" option in the file manager but that seems like it can only bookmark paths rather than specific files. There is also the "Bookmarks" plugin but that doesn't really seem to have same goal as what I'm looking for and would be cumbersome for my purpose.

If you find the icon for the move / drop operation gets in the way and obscures where you want to drop selection try this solution:
This is using j2re1.4.2_06 - the problem may not exist in other versions
Find file "motif_MoveDrop32x32.gif"
in
/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_06/lib/images/cursors/motif_MoveDrop32x32.gif
or wherever your jre folder is
Open in gimp (may have to change read/write permission)
Select white area - leave just little bit of white around edge
Make it transparent
Save.

This will, I expect change icon, in all java apps.
You could also try editing "cursors.properties"
I'm sure there might be better wys but this seems to work!

In Project Viewer, when adding a new project, I'm limited to choosing a local location for project root, but I often work on remote files. I can add files from VFS and get my remote files, but I can only add one file at a time. That's very time-consuming. Would like to be able to import files from directories on remote servers. Also: projects can only consist of files, but not directories? Would like to add directories/folders as part of a project, to be able to organize my project similarly to how it will exist on the filesystem when deployed.

Hi,

When I install new versions of ProjectViewer and SQL plugin, working together is ended with error:
Cannot start: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: projectviewer/config/ProjectOptionsPlugin.

Please, help me.

what i need to do?..

Up installation and start-up an error message is retunred, "MAC OS Plug-in requires a later version of java (MRJ 99)" What do I need, I tried installing MRJ 2.2.26 but was returned a that the latest version was installed.

I wonder if there is a way to save HyperSearch results in a separate file.

Hi there,

I have been watching this community for a few days and looks like no serious communication takes place. I as a lot of other people am looking for sharing knowledge and information on using jEdit.

Is there any other place out there where this is done ?

regards

I downloaded JBuilder but it looks pretty complicated for me and I may have to switch to something simpler. I might download a text editor like jEdit and then install that along with Java 1.4. Is that all I need to do then to start writing programs? When I install jEdit will it automatically link itself to Java 1.4 or do I have to go through some manual configuration process to link the two together?

And what is a plug-in? Do I need to install any plug-ins? Or can I use jEdit just the way it comes in the download?

I'm certain I had this problem fixed once, but I can't find whatever documentation I used. I've just come back to JEdit from Netbeans, so I can't quite recall what changes I made. I'm using JEdit 4.2Final.

If I'm typing a Java file, and I enter a Javadoc, followed by a class or method declaration, when I press <enter> on the line, it indents to the * on the javadoc. Example:

I type:

/**
 * javadoc comment
 */
public class MyClass {

Jedit automatically indents to:

/**
 * javadoc comment
 */
 public class MyClass {

inserting the space at the beginning of the line. I don't want this to happen. Can anybody tell me what I need to do to fix it; I suspect I'll have to edit the java mode file, but I'm not overly familiar with the syntax. I looked at the java mode, but nothing popped out to solve this issue.

Thanks,
Dusty

Hi,

I've just started using JEdit - excellent product!

Is there any way to make the "Search and Replace" dialog dockable? It would definitely making editing multiple buffers easier.

Thx,

Frank.

I was going to download the JCompiler and Console plug-ins so I don't have to open a command line to compile and run my program. But during the download I got I/O error and I don't know why. I'm assuming the download failed. How can I tell if I have these plug-ins installed?

Is jEdit (or a plugin) able to perform HTML source code formatting, like for example Dreamweaver does? I got many files with messy html code and I was wondering if I could do this with jEdit.

Thanks...

I just thought it might help somebody. I have Mepis3.3 installed on my IBM Laptop and under windows i was used to jEdit, so after switching to Linux i of course installed jEdit too, but my my - though the keyboard layouts work just fine in any other program it wouldn't in jEdit - it just prints absolutely wrong characters (no matter what encoding is set default). I found a workaround to this:
First of all you need Character Map plugin installed.
So how do we get the character - using kde (3.3.2) Alt+Character does the trick, but not in Java apps.
Do this:
Start Macros Recording > type the Alt+Character (it gives you the usual stoooopid none-needs-it character) > Stop Recording (it switches you to Macros editing) > select the wrong character > open Character Map plugin - type the correct one > save the macros > open Global Options Shortcuts > Macros > find the macros you just created and assign it the hot key Alt+Character .
Vuala ! Thus you have what you needed in the first place Of course, it will take some time to make all the needed macros, but if you love jEdit as i do you will find it a peace of cake

And now for those of you who know the proper way to correct this - start talking !

I'm a long time user of jEdit, but just found out about the code browser plugin. I'm running OS/X v.10.3.8, and installed exuberant ctags (version 5.5.4) through darwinports. Ctags seems to run perfectly from the command line, but it just doesn't work inside of jEdit. I've got the correct path in the plugin settings. I've tried different kinds of files, some C, some tcl, html, java, and PHP, so I'm fairly sure it's not a language-support or file extension issue.

I noticed some odd behavior, as well. I've got the Code Browser docked on the right. When I first open jEdit, there are some entries in the code tree that are completely out of the blue (I expanded them so you could see):



If anyone could help me out with this, I would appreciate it greatly. Thanks
