Hello,

I'm back to using jEdit after a couple of years away from coding. I wanted to use SQL plugin, so I set up a MySQL connection in Project Viewer plugin. At first it works, but after some time the SQL plugin seem to loose the connection setting - it disappears from the "Choose the server" dialogue. The connection remains in Project Viewer.

Please advice.

I haven't used Jedit in a while but I needed it yesterday and every time I typed a 'C' or an 'a' the computer beeped at me. I could see that there was a 'C' or an 'a' at the bottom as if I was typing in some sort of key combination and it was awaiting the next key. How do I fix this?

I just upgraded to 4.3 and I have the same problem

I am running Java 1.5 on Linux

Thanks

I am running Jedit 4.2 on a Suse system. I think it is running with JRE 1.6 (That's the jre on my path), but I'm not sure how to confirm which version jedit is running with.

My machine is configured with a Dvorak key mapping. This works fine when I'm typing into jedit buffers, but my shortcut bindings seem to use a qwerty layout. For example, us dvorak users get into the habit of physically hitting Ctrl+I instead of Ctrl+C for copy (our 'I' key normally types a 'C'), but that gets literally interpreted as Ctrl-I.

I realise this might be desired behaviour for some users (especially those new to dvorak), but is there a way of having keyboard shortcuts interpreted the same way as normal keystrokes (the way every other app works)?

Hi all,

Jedit is becoming better and better and to me there are only one or two features that will make Jedit THE perfect editor.

One of those features (before a real terminal or ssh plugin) is a completion feature like vim 7 omnicomplete for python, C, C++, ...

Is this kind of feature intersting for other users ?

Any way thank your very much for this very good software

HI, I can't start my jedit appliction in my fedora os.

Error I get is

GC Warning: Out of Memory! Returning NIL!
Exception in thread "main" GC Warning: Out of Memory! Returning NIL!
GC Warning: Out of Memory! Returning NIL!
*** Catastrophic failure while handling uncaught exception.

what shall I do?

thanks in advance, Patrik

If I have a root file that uses a DTD file, and I have every chapter linked to their own files. What should I do to get the child files to use the same DTD file so XML Insert works??
Greatful for any answer...

I have the Console and FTP plugins, what i want to do is connect to my ssh server to upload download things, and also be able to use the command line to work on my ssh server (do it all from jedit instead of having to open another ssh console just for doing console commands)

is this possible in any way?

Hey, I'm looking to use jEdit as an actionscript 3 editor, and am interested to see how the SideKick plugin can be extended to provide basic code completion.

I installed SideKick and also CTagsSideKick, and saw that CTagsSideKick was more of a navigation / code viewing plugin rather than a context aware dynamic code completion. (functions got added to the tree as you imported, and created them) I'm wondering if there is a community based around SideKick, or if there is more documentation I can read up on?

Hi.

I have installed the XML and Sidekick plugins. When I open an XML file the Sidekick plugin says initially sayes "Not parsed" and I have to select "File->Reload" in order to get Sidekick to parse the file and display the document tree. This seems a bit odd, is there some way to make Sidekick parse the file the first time it is opened?

A related question. Is there an easy way to make the XML plugin reparse and re-validate the XML document? This only seems to happen when I reload the file.

I downloded and installed JEdit in windows xp 2003 server but I can't figure out the way of compiling and geting the output of java files from inside JEdit
pl's let me Know this
Thanks Varuna

I'm new to jedit. I change the global options (font etc.), edit files, and exit. When I bring up jedit again it has gone back the default options not mine. How do I make it save my options? I didn't see anything about saving options in faq or guide, so I assume it should be automatic. I'm using the latest on windows.

Hi All

I am a noob with jEdit and quite impressed with it. I have it installed in both Fiesty Fawn and M$ XP.

All seemed well at first then while working out an issue with a user on Pidgin the CPU locked up & I noticed the fan going full. Power KILL was the only way left available to recover control.

I've since paid more attention and it seems I get between 30 & 10 minutes operation of jEdit before I notice the fan and task manager reporting 100% CPU usage. Memory usage seems to remain at normal levels.

Terminating jEdit restored CPU usage to normal levels immediately & I can reload with out issues. Doing this several times today I began to be aware the runtimes were getting shorter. Finally it got down to under 10 minutes.

At this point I re-installed this time ensuring all the install options were included (Complete Install). I also selected to install the launcher that starts at boot.

In approximately 12 minutes I noticed the CPU at 100% and the fan running. I saved my work and exited the program. This time the CPU usage remained at 100%. I then killed the jEdit (sp) process. CPU usage returned to normal levels and I built the config data block I'll include near the end of this post. ~30 minutes with no CPU issues.

Are others seeing this behavior?

Is there any special reason why jEdit does not have a JNLP installer? I think it would be a nice Feature, especially if it could help to keep your jEdit install current, without the need to reinstall in different directories. Not to mention the ability to install it with one click on your coworkers machines to convert them from other editors... Comments plx!

Currently, I'm getting started writing jEdit BeanShell macros with just a simple text editor and the online User's Guide as a reference. Is there a better way?

Is there any IDE that could provide auto-complete, context-sensitive help, syntax check as I type, and other modern IDE goodies? Or is a plain text editor the way to go?

I work for a software company who creates their interface in Java. They've recently upgraded the interface using a toolkit called JIDE. In case any of you were not aware of JIDE here is a link:

I know nothing about this sort of thing, but it'd be awesome to see jEdit wrapped in this interface!

Cheers,
CJ

I haven't noticed this until a couple months ago, that after I log into our SFTP server I get a login message. I have always seen it when I log in via command line but not with jEdit.

I don't see a way to disable the login message through menu options.

Is there any other way I can get rid of the login message? The plugin itself is unhackable to me.

Tanx!

I was hoping to write a new edit mode for jEdit for UniBasic based off of one I have for UltraEdit. UltraEdit supports automatic capitalization, so I can type in "next" and when I press space or type in a symbol, it will automatically capitalize it to "NEXT". This helps me type code much faster, since I hate holding down shift and UniBasic requires capitalization on its flow control statements, reserved words, etc.

Is there any way that automatic capitalization can happen with an edit mode, or is there a plugin that already handles something like this? I did look through the plugin descriptions on the plugin manager, but none seemed to fit the use I have.
