console / ssh
Submitted by misterdanny on Sunday, 27 May, 2007 - 17:15
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?
SideKick Documentation
Submitted by kensuguro on Tuesday, 29 May, 2007 - 23:07
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?

Reparsing/Re-validating XML
Submitted by frodesto on Wednesday, 30 May, 2007 - 13:22
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.

saving options
Submitted by joed on Saturday, 2 June, 2007 - 19:35
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.
Processor goes full on 100%
Submitted by George Dunham on Monday, 4 June, 2007 - 20:01
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?

My Config:

jEdit JNLP support?
Submitted by CapM on Tuesday, 5 June, 2007 - 12:40
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... Eye-wink Comments plx!
IDE for writing jEdit BeanShell macros?
Submitted by Giesen on Tuesday, 5 June, 2007 - 15:51
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?
New Java Interface
Submitted by CJreige on Wednesday, 6 June, 2007 - 14:47
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:

http://www.jidesoft.com/

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

Cheers,

FTP plugin: way to hide login message?
Submitted by denserMan on Thursday, 7 June, 2007 - 14:57
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.

Automatic Capitalization?
Submitted by fidian on Monday, 11 June, 2007 - 15:10
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.
jedit server startup
Submitted by sergivs on Monday, 11 June, 2007 - 15:51
Hi,

I installed jEdit 4.3 pre 9 on my laptop and chose the option to start the jEdit server with Windows, which turned out to take a while, and most of the times that I turn on the laptop I don't use jEdit. Is there a way to turn this off or do I need to uninstall / reinstall jEdit?

Thanks,

Sergei
CS-RCS Pro - Componant Software source control
Submitted by George Dunham on Tuesday, 12 June, 2007 - 18:51
Hi all
How to Add a new Source Control System First add the system type to the SourceControl.props file in the key... options.sourcecontrol.sctypes
  • I've found the file.
  • I put CS-RCS as the entry.
  • Am I on the right track?
Then create a class that implements the com.sgbarlow.sourcecontrol.SourceControlInterface interface. Your class must have name equal to the name you give your Source Control system with the spaces removed and Impl added to the end. i.e. MS Visual Source Safe becomes MSVisualSourceSafeImpl
  • This has me stumped.
  • Where do I create this class?
  • Do I match the type?
  • The repository says it is SCC API.
  • Do I use that?
  • If some one has done this before, I sure could use some help.
Thanks George M$ XP, Sony Vaio.
Save folds with file
Submitted by McSwell on Friday, 15 June, 2007 - 18:35
When a file is closed or jEdit is shut down, save the fold status of the file(s) as well.

(This was posed as a how-to question in the "Using jEdit" forum by someone, and then seconded and thirded as a wish (the last time by me). Since it apparently is not presently possible, I'm repeating it here as a request for an enhancement.)

fonts in dialog boxes
Submitted by McSwell on Friday, 15 June, 2007 - 20:40
Is there any chance that the font that is chosen for text could also be used in the search dialog box? I'm editing text that contains Bengali words in Unicode (OK, I admit that probably isn't a common use...). If I choose the Vrinda font for my text, the Bengali characters show up reasonably well (although jEdit isn't displaying some of the messier things right--XMLmind, which is also written in Java, manages to display Bengali text correctly, so I know this isn't impossible). But when I paste Bengali text into the search dialog box, I get little squares (two for each Bengali character, since they take two bytes in UTF-8). Likewise if I choose Arial Unicode MS.

I realize there may be problems with following the user's choice of font size, e.g. if I choose 24 point Vrinda, XMLmind will probably have to use 12 point in the dialog box (or else do a lot of re-sizing). But I believe the font choice could be preserved.

Auto switch Snytax Highlight Colors when switching modes?
Submitted by Jakobud on Friday, 15 June, 2007 - 22:24
I am a recent jEdit convert. I come from a world of other text editors (like Ultraedit) where each mode has its own syntax highlighting color assignments. So for example, when viewing a PHP file, my background is blue, strings are red, comments are green etc... But then when viewing Python, all those things are different colors.

So I was wondering if there are any plugins or anything that allows you to automatically switch colors whenever you switch modes? The closest thing I can find is this plugin called "Editor Scheme Selector". I allows you to save/load color schemes (for the TextArea, Syntax colors and Gutter). So I save different color schemes and have to manually switch between them when I swap modes.

So anyways, is it possible to do what I am wanting?
