I've installed Jedit 4.3pre8 and Jedit 4.2 on Fedora Core 6 and I have the same problem with both. The main window open arounds 800x600 pixels, and if I resize the window or maximize it, I just get empty space around the window. The application stays the original size, and the space around it is unusable.

I've seen screenshots of Jedit and obviously you can use the whole screen! I'm using Sun's JDK v1.5.0.9 with the jpackage compatible rpm. Other Java apps are running find.

I've searched but can't find anyone with a similar problem or a solution. Can anyone suggest any routes of investigation or solutions?

Cheers - Callum.

I have installed JRE 6.0,but the package force me to install JRE 5.0 .Could u please consider about this,thx.

Hi,

I'm pretty new to writing plugins for jEdit. So please don't flame me.

I want to write a plugin so that I can right click on a file or directory in the file browser and have a command line program run with the path of the selected file/dir passed as an argument. I'd like the output displayed in a popup box (or similar).

The command line programs I want to run in particular are:
svn status
svn log

ie programs where no input is required (except for command line arguments)

Could anyone give me a hint as to how hard this might be? I can code in java, so I don't mind implementing it myself.

Just a few hints to get me going would be enough. Thanks!

I like jedit a lot but there's one small problem that annoys me sometimes - in soft wrap mode lines are wrapped only if a space occurs. This is a problem with long lines which have long portions of text without spaces - in those cases the line is not wrapped at all and I get a nasty horizontal scrollbar. For example long urls with parameters:

<a href="some_page.php?parameter1=1¶meter2=1¶meter3=1¶meter4=1¶meter5=1¶meter6=1¶meter7=1¶meter8=1¶meter9=1¶meter10=1>

Is there a way to make jedit break lines also at other characters like for example special chars: ? & = " ' ?

Hi All,

I'm at wits end, and hope someone can help.

I've moved my development environment from Linux to Windows, and one of the most important Jedit features I rely on is the javascript plugin. In particular, its ability to parse javascript and display errors is a lifesaver. This feature saves me tons of time vs. trying to find a typo or some dumb syntax error at runtime.

Problem is, no matter what I try, I can't seem to get this feature running on Windows. I've tried with 4.2 and 4.3, and I've tried to completely duplicate the setup and configuration on windows that I'm using under Linux. Even tried copying the whole jars directory from my user settings directory from my linux box to Windows.

In all cases, the error list window shows no errors when parsing javascript, and the UI doesn't display the helpful little "error bars" in the source code window.

I got all this running on Linux quite some time ago, so I can't really remember whether/what I did with Rhino to get this running. Unfortunately, the Rhino docs are rather sparse, and I could find very little searching this site or the javascript plugin site or the rhino site to set me straight.

I have downloaded and placed rhino's js.jar file in both my user and system settings directories, again to no avail (even though I don't seem to have one anywhere on my linux box).

Any help/advice or guesses gratefully accepted!

I don't know whether this is FTP plugin's bug or main jedit bug, but here it is: opening a remote file from the file system browser takes very long time - I measured it's 45 seconds even for very small files. The same files are being opened almost in an instant when I reverted back to 4.3pre8. The same applies to saving files. Perhaps the FTP plugin needs to be updated for 4.3pre9 but the plugin manager didn't find any updates. I'm on WinXP SP2, Java version 1.5.0_10-b03.

My platform is Ubuntu 6.10 and JDK6.0,and I find that the ftp plugin on this new version open files on ftp server so slowly.Does anybody have the same problem?

I have a couple of docked windows that I like to leave opened most of the time. One is docked to the right, the other to the bottom. Currently, the one on the right takes up the whole right side, and the on on the bottom takes up all the bottom except that which the right has already taken. I would like this to be the other way. I want to give that overlapping corner to the bottom-docked window, not the side one. Is there a way to do this.

I expected it to matter which order I docked them at (or the order which I toggled the fly-out), but it doesn't matter. The right-docked item always takes up that lower-right corner.

Hi, I'm new to jedit macros; I usually rely on "record macro" to get me started, but this time it doesn't work. I'd like a macro that I can shortcut to that sets a specific (or all) open buffers to explicit folding mode (w/o all the mouse clicks). A search of community macros did not reveal anything of recognizable help. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get started? Thanks.

I'm having problem with selecting data in a document with
the cursor. The selected data is comming up with a dark
blue back ground and the text can not be read.

When I do
utilities>global options>text area>selection single

the swatch shows a dark blue color and
when I try to change the color to a lighter
see through color like white or pastel blue then OK
the text area panel comes back with white
in the swatch. I press apply then OK.

The selection in the document is still dark blue
if I then do
utilities>global options>text area>selection single

the swatch has reverted to dard blue.

This problem started two days ago after the Apple store
tech remove a jammed cd and reinstalled imac g5 osx 10.4,
and I installed all Apple updates, which included a new version
JAVA. I downloaded jedit4.3pre9install.dmg and the probem started
occuring. I need advice on where to find a solution as I've
spent two days trying and have had no luck.


thanks

Anyone seen a php beautifier? there is one for java but not PHP....

create a file in PHP mode and use this code: The escaped quotes seem to break the syntax highlighting ... I tries using the modes (the modes/*.xml files) from pre8 but that didn't fix it. Had to go back to pre8

I should like to manipulate text files containing several TITLE lines. The format of title is: TITLE "" I have to add a few number of new text rows after all title lines. I've tried it with Regular expression replace. The search for line is TITLE " the Replace with is TITLE "$1 addition of new text I've got the following error message: Sourced file: inline evaluation of: ``__internal_replace(ns) { this.callstack.set(0,ns); return ( TITLE "$1 add . . . '' Token Parsing Error: Lexical error at line 3, column 22. Encountered: "\n" (10), after : "\"$1": Could anybody help me with the right syntax, or have a good idea to solve my problem? Thanks in advance, Gaspar

How do I adjust jEdit to allow the opening of larger files? I have reviewed the users guide as indicated but can't locate the spot or steps to correct my error.

I find it tedious to set up my syntax highligting options and key bindings. Is there a way to do this programmatically?

I use jedit from my thumb drive, which works just fine. But on one system my display is in portrait mode the other system is a regular 1280x1024 resolution. My problem is that when I open a dialog box (say for opening a file or search) the window placements are saved from my old system and are way off my screen and I Can't access the windows. is there any way to change what location the windows open at?

is there a plugin or macro that i can use that will auto close a bracket or quote ?
this is a feature in scribes that i really miss in Jedit.
i have tried the abbreviations trick but it doesn't really work because sometimes i do want a space inside the quotes. and if i open a bracket or brace ( or { or [ and hit space twice, it closes.

anyway, if this is a feature already, please let me know how to turn it on, or if a plugin or macro, please let me know.

great editor / IDE you guys have here, i use it for everything

i have an abbreviation: key: tag abbreviation: <$1>$2$end how would i create a tag that would expand before and after a selection?
