jEdit 4.3.2 delays Windows XP startup

I am using jEdit on a PC with Windows XP SP3 installed. Since I have upgraded to jEdit 4.3.2 after booting a jEdit Splash Screen appears which seems to delay the startup process of Win XP. My girlfriend has the same Splash Screen when she logs in with her user account - would it be possible to deactivate this unwanted pre-loading at least on her user account?
Thank you for your advice.
kind regards,

Can't save long files with FTP Plugin

Monday, 6 September, 2010 - 17:56
Hey guys,
I have worked with jEdit and the FTP plugin now for a while and never have had any problems.
But since I have installed a 64 Bit version, the saving on my remote server doesnt work anymore.
Strangely, it works with small files (less than 200 characters or so) but not with larger.
The error I get seems as following: "Cannot save: java.io.IOException: Rename failed: [path]#[filename]#save#.
Where the heck do these # come from?
I also have tried with disabled "two-stage save" but the result was the same as before, in addition to the fact that I havent received any error message.
I really despair of this problem because whats more, I have lost some important files irrevocable.
Please help me! Otherwise I'll have to look for another program.
Dual diff on two screens / displays / views

Hi,
dual diff splits the current view, but if you have to physical displays it would be better to use both.
It would be nice, if you could use two views, so you'd compare a buffer in one view on one display with a second view on the second display.
Or is that already possible and I did not find it? I could open a second view and move it to the second display, but diff would still use only one view.

A beta version of a commando file to execute
povray from
jEdit.
Supports the choice of different output types including png and jpeg.
Also supports toggling of anti-aliasing, and easy setting of size
by width and height values.
Now supports several different
quality settings, which can easily be tuned to suit your needs.
New!! ability to control in memory buffer (povray-3.7) see povray beta documentation.
Add other options to suit your own needs, one thing you must do is set the path to povray.
Create a little povray.bsh macro, to automate the loading of the commando file.

Plug In issues and errors

Ok I have installed jEdit on two separate computers and get the same outcome. After I installed, I went to plugin manager and installed all the plugins. WHen that finished, several of the plugins seemed to not install, and even showed up as errors in the plugin manager. The first pc I installed jedit on, I left the plugins alone after installing them, so everytime I opened jEdit, the pluginmanager popped up and showed me all these plugins that didnt install correctly. Then last night I installed jEdit on my laptop, and installed all the plugins but removed the ones that were buggy.
Still, on both machines, an error keeps popping up, so much so that I cant even begin to learn to use jEdit, that says somethinmg about global cant be set, and for me to go to plugin manager and set global path to 'global'. I tried that, but it seems to be already set to that.
Anyone know whats going on? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
New options for auto-save or toggle-button
Submitted by
Scribus on

Yesterday, I suddenly registered how used my
-key looks, compared to the rest of my keyboard. I investigated for the reason, and found me pressing -s in jEdit very often to save my modified buffer.
In that moment it struck me that an autosave-feature would be nice, which could be described as following:
The file is saved. You start typing. While you continue to type, your file remains unsaved.
As soon as you stop to type, the clock starts ticking for a optional amount of seconds until your buffer gets saved automatically.
With "saved" I mean really saved, like with -s, and not the fallback-file with the filename enclosed in "#"-characters.
Such a feature would save me many keypresses and make it much more comfortable to point my mouse to a terminal and execute the modified program.
- Is such a feature already possible with the build-in macro language, or does someone has to create a plugin to make this wish come true?
Problem finding what I want :)

Hello
I would like to search for the following expression in the text file:
$123 1
Of course the command for this is SearchAndReplace.setSearchString("$123 1");
And it works.
The problem is - that the "123" part of this string is random. So what I really need to find is the first "$", ignore the next 3 digits, find 1 space and finally find "1".
How to create a search command to ignore that "123", or "243" or whatever it may be?
For example if I want to list the file 123AA.txt, I simply put the command "dir ???AA.txt". Is that possible when using BeanShell?
Thanks for advice

RecentBufferSwitcher With SuperAbbrevs
Submitted by
freeborough on
Wednesday, 29 September, 2010 - 12:34
Hi, I've been using the RecentBufferSwitcher plugin for some time and have it bound to Ctrl + Tab. I've recently discovered the SuperAbbrevs plugin and want to use it alongside RBS, however it seems that with RBS enabled Tab doesn't trigger SuperAbbrevs.
Is there an alternative to RBS (that can work in exactly the same way) that doesn't hog the key it's assigned to?
Could RBS be modified to allow it to work with SuperAbbrevs? What would I need to make it do that it's not doing at the moment?
Failing that, I was thinking of configuring / modifying SuperAbbrevs to use the Space key instead of Tab for its trigger - much like the normal built-in abbreviations which I've got used to.
Are any of these work-arounds available already?
Thanks in advance,
- Andy.
jEdit opens formerly not opened files at startup

Dear Developers and Forum Members!
I am a newbie in jEdit. It seems to me very good. Thank you for your efforts and excellent work.
I have a small problem with it. At startup the system loads that kind of files which were never opened.
It loads those files, which are in my user profile directory (C:\Documents and Settings\xxxxx\).
I am using:

When I check the settings directory (C:\Documents and Settings\xxxxx\.jedit) I have to realize, that the system writes never opened files to perspective.xml and recent.xml files all time.
I have deleted those files from the mentioned xml files and the files from settings-backup but it did not solve the problem.
The "Restore previously open files on startup" option is set up.
Thank you for your kindest help.

Hi,
I'am new to this forum. Using jedit for some jears, recently on a macbook pro with Mac OS 10.6.4. Now I've changed my internal harddrive into a ssd- everything works faster- except jedit which works slower- when I hit the save shortcut it takes 5 seconds until the file is saved (and also the lilypondtool plugin does react very delayed).
Any idea whats going on?

QuickNotepadActions is just a "triat" (=Scala) [Interfac (=Java)] -> so this error message don't really make sens to me
Do you have an idea what could be wrong here?

How do you change the font displayed by the jedit editor? I have always used Frankin Gothic Medium Condensed as it is an easy font to read and does not take up too much space
Is ther any way of altering the font used for displaying code in the editor, either directly or acessing a configuration file?
