compare two files
Submitted by srikrishnan on Wednesday, 2 January, 2008 - 04:39
Hi All,

I am new to this forum.

I came to knew about JEdit through the Book "XSLT 2.0 Programmer's Reference, Third Edition by Michael Kay" which I bought last year.

From the date onwards I am using JEdit instead of Ultra edit on both of my "Windows XP" and "Ubuntu" Operating Systems.

It is incomparable even with any proprietary softwares.

First of all I thanks all of those who developing this Editor.

I have one doubt, very often I need to compare two documents. But I am not able to found any option for that purpose in JEdit.

Is there any option for that?

Regards,
Srikrishnan

Is there any option to count and display the number of find/find & Replace done in the selected buffer/file?

Modifying TextAutocomplete's "Is word to remember" option
Submitted by kircheis on Wednesday, 2 January, 2008 - 12:26
I haven't been able to make TextAutocomplete plugin recognize Cobol procedure names in a format like:

000000-MAIN-ROUTINE

Since there are numbers and a dash this is ignored. According to the documentation I should modify the "Is word to remember" option but I couldn't make it work like it should.
TextAutocomplete VK_TAB
Submitted by kircheis on Wednesday, 2 January, 2008 - 17:56
I was wondering if other people have any problem with VK_TAB as accept key on TextAutocomplete.
It simply doesn't work for me. I can only complete with VK_ENTER. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Not sure if it is a bug. I simply put VK_TAB but nothing happens when I try to complete. It doesn't work on default either.
New Plugins: Snout and SnoutKick
Submitted by KalothIV on Thursday, 3 January, 2008 - 09:56
Hi all, this is my first contribution to the JEdit community and comes in the form of 2 plugins that I created to make my everyday coding experience and work much easier.

The first plugin is called Snout and provides a GUI for ctags that can index your source files and creates a hashtable of the results for quick and efficient searching (usually less than a second for a 16mb ctags index file).

The second plugin is called SnoutKick and is a sidebar GUI for ctags that provides a sorted symbol list for the current buffer. The symbol nearest to the caret is highlighted so that you can easily work out which function you are editing etc..

Both these plugins style their colours based on the global JEdit style and blend in nicely with the environment. You can find them on my website at http://www.finalfury.co.uk/jedit.html

I hope that they prove useful to someone. Remember that you'll need to install ctags for these plugins to work.

Chris.

Run Macro on Shutdown?
Submitted by MasterT on Tuesday, 8 January, 2008 - 15:12
Is it possible to run a macro when I shut down jEdit? I know we can throw them in the startup directory to be run on startup, but what about when we shut down?
SVNPlugin diff question
Submitted by edrubins on Wednesday, 9 January, 2008 - 03:26
When I use SVNPlugin->diff on a buffer against the head revision I get a pop up saying there is no difference between the local copy and the repository even though SVNPlugin->status shows the file is modified. If I do the diff against the latest revision in the repository the diff works as expected. Can someone tell how to get the diff against the head to work?

Consolue plugin and path back/forward slash confusion
Submitted by ky8080 on Friday, 11 January, 2008 - 21:07
Folks,

Apologies if this is the wrong place for this topic, I am new to the forums. I've been using jEdit for years and I finally ran into an issue with the latest RC and correlated Console plugin that led me to sign up here.

I typicaly use jEdit for C/C++ development, and the Console like a shell; so I run my make files from within the Console so that I can trap the errors. My current Console plugin version is 4.2.6.5. I recently tried upgrading to the latest jEdit RC and along with it came a new Console.

However, now whenever I use a forward slash in the Console in any of my commands (jEdit on Windows), they get automatically converted to backward slashes on my Windows platform. As I am running commands which run inside Cygwin the slashes need to be preserved.

Is there any way to go back to the way things were with slashes? I am now permanently stuck in RC10 since any move forward upgrades my Console which makes it unusable for me on Windows.

Regards,
K.

email address shown to public
Submitted by aabbaabb on Tuesday, 15 January, 2008 - 07:54
I tried to search my email address with google and it gave me one hit:
http://community.jedit.org/cgi-bin/TWiki/view/Main/MyUserName

In that page I can see my email address, everybody can see it.

I have now changed my email address here in jedit.org but how can I change it in wiki? Wiki seems to be broken anyway.
I want my email address off from that public page.

Thanks

4.3pre12 mac os increase heap
Submitted by upton9265 on Tuesday, 22 January, 2008 - 17:04
Hi All,

I just downloaded and installed jedit4.3pre12 on my Mac OS X(10.4.11) using the .dmg file. Once installsed, I tried loading a large file (~27MB) and I got a "OutOfMemory" error. I've seen this posted before, but I can't seem to find the Info.plist file folks mention to modify. How do you modify the java VM parameters? (this is probably more a Mac question, I suspect. I'm new to the Mac, having used the windows version of jedit).

thanx

Block fill with text or numbers (Block_fill.bsh v1.1 by Robert Schwenn)
Submitted by Robert Schwenn on Saturday, 26 January, 2008 - 00:01
Differences to the block-fill feature of TextTools Plugin:

1. No choice to overwrite or not the selection. Instead, the selected text is deleted and the new text is inserted with it's full length.
2. Improved performance on large selections because of:
- Removed support for multiple selections
- Removed support for tab handling

Alternative block-fill macro
Submitted by Robert Schwenn on Saturday, 26 January, 2008 - 00:59
Hi,
the block-fill feature of TextTools Plugin doesn't insert more characters per line than fit into the selection's width (the text is cut).

A macro with a different behavior can be downloaded here.

These are the differences to the original function of TextTools Plugin:

1. No choice to overwrite or not the selection. Instead, the selected text is deleted and the new text or number is inserted with it's full length. When numbering, the longest inserted number defines the length of inserted text.

2. Improved performance on large selections because of:
- Removed support for multiple selections (what's the expected result else?)
- Removed support for tab handling (there should be no tabs ...)

jEdit needs time to respond under Windows XP
Submitted by weberjn on Monday, 28 January, 2008 - 10:15
Hi,

occasionally (about once or twice during a workday) when I Alt-Tab to jEdit, it takes several (10-15) seconds until I see jEdit's Gui and it accepts input.
But most of the time it is immediately visible and accepts input.

Has anybody else seen this behavour?

It looks like Windows XP has swapped out jEdit and needs time to load in again, or if the Java VM is waiting for something to become available.

I start jEdit with jEdit launcher using

D:\jdk1.6.0_04\bin\javaw.exe -mx64m -jar jedit.jar

Thanks,
Juergen
