Extended Plugin Manager
Submitted by Baldurien on Sunday, 23 July, 2006 - 16:48
Hi,

That would be cool for the plugin manager to :

1. select only plugin available for the current version of jEdit
2. disable all plugin that can't work for the current version of jEdit

I remember the customisable fold handler that didn't work from 4.2 to 4.3...

Also, if we could have an update manager ala Firefox Bon Echo (2.0), that would be the best Eye-wink

(Anyway, I don't know if it's the first thing I would do if I were developping for jEdit)

Thank you
Activepython install strange interaction with JEdit on Windows
Submitted by frisky on Sunday, 23 July, 2006 - 21:27
windows 2000 and JEdit 4.2 was installed with various plugins for a few weeks. I then downloaded Python specifically the file ActivePython-2.3.5-236-win32-ix86.msi.

Everytime I clicked the Python intall file to start the install JEdit opened. I restarted my PC moved the python file to another location, tried another download of python - everytime JEdit opened instead of the python installer.

Finally I uninstalled JEdit and clicked the python installer and the install began as expected. What could cause this? I'm reinstalling JEdit now and hope there's no strangeness. Thanks

Console Plugin is broken
Submitted by MightyJoe on Monday, 24 July, 2006 - 18:17
I'm trying to install the Console plugin version 4.2.6.4 on JEdit version 4.2 Final.
Using the Plugin Manager, I select the Console plugin, click on Install and I get an I/O error:
"An I/O Error occurred (error in opening zip file)."
I can download the Console zip file directly but it does not appear to contain a .jar file. I'm at a loss as to what to install.

How can I add jEdit to my windows popup right-click menu?
Submitted by sy8111 on Wednesday, 26 July, 2006 - 13:38
Just like EditPlus or UltraEdit, when right-click some file, I can choose sort of 'open with jEdit' menu item to open the file.
Plugin to change encoding easily
Submitted by raspi on Thursday, 27 July, 2006 - 11:35
Hi,

I'd like to see plugin that allows to change encoding quickly. Like ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8, ISO-8859-15 to UTF-8, ISO-8859-1 to HTML, etc.. I'm tired of doing search & replaces n+1 times.
Extract Matches (Extract_Matches.bsh v0.4 by Peter Adolphs)
Submitted by futzilogik on Thursday, 27 July, 2006 - 14:53
A jEdit BeanShell macro that extracts all tokens matched by a user-specified regular expression and puts them into a new buffer. Optionally returns a unique and/or sorted list of matches. Update: version 0.4. now works with 4.3pre16

Stata 9 and 10 edit mode v2.5.1 (stata.xml v2.5.1 by Original by Glenn Hoetker, updated by Jesse Hamner)
Submitted by soapbox on Friday, 28 July, 2006 - 15:44
The original was really written for Stata 7, it appears, and Stata is up to version 10 now. I modified and added some keywords and broke the keywords into a few more categories. I've been working on cleaning it up and adding keywords (feedback encouraged, see xml file for contact info).

Version 2.5.1 brings more graphing keywords, and some improvements in the "programming" keywords of the mode. The dissertation is taking more of my time right now, so I apologize for the slow updates.

Thanks to those who contacted me about feature requests. Those requests are included or ongoing (adding all the programming keywords will take a while, and I'm already working on all the survival-model keywords).

As before, thanks to Glenn Hoetker for the first version.

NB: Stata 10 was released June 25 2007 and has a bunch of new features. I'm still working on all the commands and will continue to expand the edit mode functionality to include Stata 10's new functions.

CharacterMap not working
Submitted by jla on Friday, 28 July, 2006 - 19:22
I've recently installed jedit and the CharacterMap plugin on both Windows XP Home and Suse Linux. Both also have Java 1.5. In both cases the CharacterMap window shows only the Basic Latin block, greyed out, with no other options available. Encoding is set to UTF-8 in both jedit and CharacterMap. All fonts are set to Lucida Sans Unicode in Windows and Georgia in Linux.

Thanks

Plugin idea for inserting line number into code
Submitted by Prometheus on Friday, 28 July, 2006 - 19:33
Hi all,

First, I hope I'm posting this into the right forum, cause the forum drop down box only shows one character for me..

I have a feature request idea for a plugin --

Basically, it would allow you to mark a point in the source code (or multiple points) where it would, upon saving the .cpp or .php or whatever file, insert the line number at that point.

In the editor, it'd appear as a %%%LINE_NUMBER%%% (maybe in a different color, whatever), and the positions of these insertion points would be saved in a your_document.your_exension.inserts file, ala the .marks files for marking lines.

This feature would allow programmers to have custom debug logs which actually tell them which line number and which file to look in.... saving time and aggrevation.

Thanks!
CodeAid for PHP?
Submitted by anode on Saturday, 29 July, 2006 - 22:45
Hi,
is there a plugin similar to CodeAid (I suppose) for PHP? The only thing I'm missing in jEdit is some completions (better than these in base jEdit installation) as well as a brief integrated function documentation - when I'm uncertain of some function parameters, it'd be nice to press a shortcut to display that small box with function description known from other IDEs.
Thanks.

Developing Java
Submitted by shaun510 on Sunday, 30 July, 2006 - 19:13
Hey, Im new to jEdit and have a really elementary question. Ive read the documentation, but I am still a little confused about the plugin. I wrote my source code in jEdit and saved it as a .java file. jEdit then colour formatted the text appropriately even though I never installed any java plugins. Is that what its supposed to do? I thought i needed to install a plugin for jEdit to recognize my source code as java.

Thanks,

Shaun
Search/Replace broken in 4.3pre5 ?
Submitted by Baldurien on Monday, 31 July, 2006 - 18:09
Hi,

When I enter this regexp :

\b\$[a-z_][a-z0-9_]*\b

Which, in case of php, should search for every variable.

This fails. While \$[a-z_][a-z0-9_]* works.

In fact, it seems that the ^ and $ also fails (was trying to catch (^[ \t]*\S.*$)+ which failed).

Since you changed for java.util.Regexp, and since it allow us to use such expression, I wonder where is the problem?

Another sample :

^\s+$

fails.

Plugin List Is Down!
Submitted by scaRFhogg on Tuesday, 1 August, 2006 - 16:25
Seems like the plugin list for the plugin manager is down!

There is an error on this page

http://plugins.jedit.org/export/gzip_plugin_manager.php

Is this only temporarily?
