I had a functioning installation of jedit, but something changed and now it won't load.

The splash screen appears and most of the start-up steps seem to complete successfully, but when it gets to the "run statup scripts" stage it stops loading indefinitely, without any cpu activity.

I'm using 4.3pre17 on WindowsXP.

Some things I've tried:

- Starting from the command line with the -nostartupscripts argument

- Deleting startup.bsh, which (apart from readme.txt) is the only file in the startup folder.

- Uninstalling and re-installing jedit 4.3pre17

- Uninstalling, deleting the jedit program folder, and re-installing.

- Uninstalling and installing 4.2

In all cases it still won't get past "run startup scripts"

Is there a settings directory or registry entry that I should also be deleting to perform a complete uninstall? Or does someone have any ideas about how I might otherwise fix the issue?

I miss jedit.

Would anyone be interested in adding a feature to the diff functionality of the SVN Plug-in?

When I'm in the SVN Browser, and I right click a file and select diff, it would be great if the "Revision" option, allowed us to select from the available revisions. I picture something like a "..." button, that when clicked, opens a small window showing the available revision numbers, and the comment created for each revision, and allows you to select one of the revisions to diff with. The comment is actually more important to me than the revision number since we use our own internal versioning scheme, and we use the comment field to hold our internal revision numbers.

Any thoughts, or volunteers?

Thanks
J.R.

After upgrading to jedit 4.3pre17 my preferred programming font ("Profont 12") displays wrongly in the editing window. It is antialiased although I defined not to use this feature in the JEdit Text Settings I found under Global Options. For a Screenshot click the link below:
Jedit Text Settings

The line numbers in the gutter left to the editing area display correctly, although using the same font, as seen in the next screenshot:
JEdit Editor Window

All this worked untill the last version (4.3pre16). I am running MacOS 10.5.8 on a MacBookPro, maybe this has something to do with my OS? Any advice would be very appreciated.

I would love to see some File Brower enhancements, namely:
- multitabs for directories. I'm constantly switching directories. Of course this can be done with favorites but it would be handier to have those directories in different tabs (as TotalCommander does)

In addition it would be nice if there would be an option to automatically switch to directory of current buffer.

- Favorites should by renamable. Showing the tree as name is counterproductive if your tree has more than 5 nodes (in mine there are often more then 20). Why not give it an userdefined alias?

What do you think?

Great work so far!

Just my two cents/wishes

Hi all,

Hope this is the right forum to ask.

Project Viewer plugin allows for project groups with the same name even at the same tree depth level. I need to get at the same VPTGroup node on each run when my own plugin initializes but cant use node paths plus node names for this purpose. Storing an index into and array of equally named groups wouldn't work either as groups before mine could get deleted form PV's main ui.

Setting a custom Icon for my Group could be a solution as I could check on this bu then, no method is available for setting node Icons, just for getting them.. Maybe I've overlooked this?

I've been studying PV's api but couldn't find anything appropriate. Anyone could give any hint?

Thanks in advance,
David

Hi All, I have installed the Windows version of jEdit version 4.3 pre17 and am having trouble getting the SQL plugin installed properly. After it (jEdit and the SQL plugin)was installed, I read all the documentation and have not been able to get the SQL properties tab or tree to show up in the docked Project Viewer. Initially, I installed it via the plugin manager, but after reading the documentation, I noticed that the C:\Documents and Settings\\.jedit\sql directory was empty. So,I downloaded and manually installed the plugin, but am still having the same result. Any ideas? Since this plugin uses the project viewer plugin could it be a plugin-to-plugin problem, or am I just doing something wrong? Thanks in advance

After updating Java to version 6 update 15 on Windows Vista (Ultimate, 64-bit), I realized that I had jEdit 4.2 installed and decided to update it to the latest version (4.3pre17) because certain plug-ins weren't working as expected. After installing 4.3pre17, I'm getting the following exception when trying to launch jEdit:

When I used JEdit 4.3pre16, it used to open its window the same size and position and on the same monitor as it was when I last quit the program. (I use a two-monitor system.) But 4.3pre17 always opens in the middle of the primary monitor and always quite small, so I have to drag it larger. Evidently a setting has been lost in the update, but I can't find it.

What's the setting to make Jedit remember its window settings from the last time it was run?

Running on WinXP (SP3), Java 1.6.0_15.

I plan on installing Mac OS X Snow leopard tomorrow. Does any one know how jEdit is going to react? I know jEdit is sensitive to Java updates, so I was just wondering if I should expect any problems updating the OS. I am going to school working toward a Computer Science major, so I NEED jEdit to work .

Hi all, My jEdit is not putting the underscore in the editing text area - it puts a blank space in its place -. Here's the keyboard test output: Event KEY_PRESSED,keyCode=0x10,keyChar=0xffff,modifiers=0x1,consumed=0 filtered Event KEY_PRESSED,keyCode=0x2d,keyChar=0x5f,modifiers=0x1,consumed=0 filtered Event KEY_TYPED,keyCode=0x0,keyChar=0x5f,modifiers=0x1,consumed=0 passed ==> Translated to <0,5f> Event KEY_RELEASED,keyCode=0x2d,keyChar=0x5f,modifiers=0x1,consumed=0 passed Event KEY_RELEASED,keyCode=0x10,keyChar=0xffff,modifiers=0x0,consumed=0 filtered Could someone help me?

Hi ! My OS is Fedora 10. I'd like to get Jedit up and running so I can use the Lilypond plugin. So, I followed instructions at the Lilypondtool web site: http://lilypondtool.organum.hu/86.html It told me to install Java Runtime 5.0 and gave instructions which I followed. Then to get Jedit 4.3pre16 or later. I downloaded 4.3pre17 It took me hours to finally get Java installed, I think. When I give this command in terminal: update-alternatives --config java I get a listing which shows three java files. The Plus (+) symbol is on jre1.6.0_16 and when I give this command in terminal: java -version it also lists jre1.6.0_16 This is what's it's supposed to be for Lilypondtool. Then I installed Jedit4.3pre17install.

But, when I try to run Jedit from terminal, I get the following: Invalid initial heap size: -XmsM Could not create the Java virtual machine. Anyone using Jedit in Fedora who can help me with this ?

Hi all! I'm a noob user, and am having trouble selecting lines between two points. In example: ----------- In the macro, I might want to start the cursor at the first div open, then use the search function to find the close so the cursor is at

The TaskList plugin (version 1.1.0) doesn't work when the Gtk+ Look and Feel is enabled; parsing the buffer, if there are any tasks embedded in it, causes the plugin to crash, and the activity log reveals a NullPointerException, but fails to locate it. TaskList works fine under Metal; it's only under Gtk+ that it crashes.

I see that the commands C-" and C-/ scrolls line but keeps the current line the same, so it disappears off screen if you scroll up down too far, and then if you use UP Down or similar navigation commands the screen jumps back to the current line.

I want a scroll line that keeps the current line at the same position on the screen, meaning if I scoll one line up, the current line also move one line up. Just like C-Up is done in NP++ and Cream.

I wish I could chose the color of the caret and the color of the char inside the caret. So a block caret would be a real block, as it is in vim or even in konsole. The block caret should be a solid color, say black, when on empty char, and when on a char, the char is displayed against the block caret's color, like white on a black caret for example.

Hi,

I want to operate jEdit on a Windows Vista Home Premium OS, installed latest JAVA environment and the latest jEdit. At double-klick the program does not start (even with administrator rights and simulating an WIN XP SP2 environment). Another post said you need to delete perspecitves.xml in the folder "Settings". Problem is, there is not such a folder, nor the xml-file. Does anyone has experience with operating jEdit under WIN VISTA Home Premium? It would be very sad to miss jEdit as it looks very promising.

Thanks in advance for any help & best regards from germany
