Would it be possible to send and receive custom AppleEvents using JEdit? For example, I would like to highlight some text in a JEdit window and then press either the key or the keys and have that chunk of text sent to my programming environment. My programming environment would take that text and execute it as if it were copy/pasted into its console window. There are other custom behaviors I would like, such as sending an AppleEvent to JEdit to open a specified file and scroll to a specific line number or character number. Also, I would like to have JEdit be able to do a "Save and Include" operation from a JEdit window: so I could edit a specific file and then press -K and the file would be saved and then compiled by my programming environment. I would also want the ability to send chunks of text (of any size) to be displayed in the currently open JEdit file/window at the current cursor location. I realize this may be asking a lot. For a demo of exactly what I am talking about you could download the PowerMops IDE and see how its QuickEdit integrated editor (but it is a separate application) does all of the above and more. http://sourceforge.net/projects/powermops/files/PowerMops/ (download PowerMops v6.2 , it includes QuickEdit double-click the "Open Me First" file in the PowerMops folder and everything will be launched and you can immediately see how what I describe above works ) The reason I ask these questions is QuickEdit does not work in Intel native mode.

Hi, I wanted to ask if anybody might have written a beanshell macro or function to be able to read and write settings in inifiles. The jedit properties do not handle the [Section] parts of the inifiles.

I have been trying to rewrite some functions written for the autohotkey language but the regexes seem to go over my head. I managed to scramble together one function (ini_get, see below), but it was more trial and error than knowing what I was doing, and I was wondering if someone already has written something similar.

Code:
ini_get(_Content, _Section, _Key, Flags, Default)
{
_Section = "\\[\\s*?\\Q"+_Section+"\\E\\s*?]";

//-- Note: The regex of this function was rewritten by Mystiq.
RegEx = "(?im)(?:\\n|^)\\s*"+_Section+"\\s*(?:\\n\\s*|\\n\\s*.+\\s*=\\s*.*?\\s*(?=\\n)|\\n\\s*[;#].*?(?=\\n))*\\n(\\s*\\Q"+_Key+"\\E\\s*=(.*))(?=\\n|$)";

//-- Kompilovat regex expression
Pattern p = Pattern.compile(RegEx);
//-- Vytvořit matcher (boolean)
Matcher m = p.matcher(_Content);
if(m.find())
{
Section = m.group(0);
Key = m.group(1);
Value = m.group(2);
}

if(Flags.indexOf('s') != -1)
return Section;
else if(Flags.indexOf('v') != -1)
return Value;
else if(Flags == null || Flags == "" || Flags.indexOf('k') != -1)
return Key;
}

I'm programming an IDE using Java language. This IDE needs a text Editor, in this case, jEdit. I would like to know how I could do this...How can I put jEdit into my IDE?

Thanks!!

Hey Guys,

Someone using highlight plugin intensively?
I have some issues with adding a new highlight entry through highlight dialog. The dialog works normally but when I press add it just silently goes away with nothing added to the list. My highlights list is empty... however cursor highlight works normally (apart from -2 linespace weirdness with offset highlight outline in the latest 4.5pre1 build )

Just in case my Java version is : 1.7.0_01

Thanks in advance,
Nick

Hi,

I have got this problem with Jedit 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5pre1.

Anyone has an idea what is going on?

Thanks in advance.

I was using jedit yesterday with no problems. This morning it won't start. I click on the icon or select the program from the list and nothing happens. It's as if I never clicked on it in the first place. Everything else on the computer seems fine.
All I have done between these two times that might be connected is log on to a wireless network for the first time ever. Any help appreciated....

Given a coordinate (x, y) how can I set the caret to be at that position? I tried using JEditTextArea.xToScreenLineOffset to calculated the offset, however it givens strange answers.

In a file were I tried to move the caret to (1, 484) it givens an array index out of bounds error.

Definitely not the droids I'm looking for.

Hi, I've looked a while, but not finding out how to edit large files under windows 7. This one might be tricky, but I also do not have admin rights on the machine (corporate environment).

I think the issue is is how can I pass parms to the java machine, when in windows there's a executable (jedit.exe) that must do the work of calling java. I tried the "-mx256m" parm to jedit.exe, but it doesn't seem to be accepted.

I've also tried to run the start up parm by borrowing my sys admin's id and pswd and editing the entry in the registry for startups to the following key: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

key: "jEdit Server" value: "C:\Program Files x(86)\Java\jre6\bin\java.exe" -xms64, -xmx256m -jar "c:\Program Files\jEdit\jedit.jar" -background -nogui --i4j- dont-wait

(oh and yes, using the admin id, I updated "ij4.ini" in the jedit subdirectory to have the value "-mx264m". Nothing seems to work on editing a 300 meg file in Win7).

Thanks.

Hei, (sorry for my ugly english -_-" )

i use jEdit for text writing (Examen) and i would save my text files in a sequence like
Text_2012_12_13__01.txt
Text_2012_12_13__02.txt
Text_2012_12_13__03.txt
...
for Bakup.
In this time i can do this only per hand, but i looking for a plugin/makro/etc. that i get a button for 'klicking' and do this automatical. I know SVN and so, but i think that is a little bit to much for a simple single work text.

Has someone an idea or help for me?

Greetings,
Jens

Environment:
Ubuntu 11.04 Desktop 64 bit. Jedit was installed from the repository.

Error encountered:
(at the command line) "jedit" under logged in user returns:
exec: 10: /usr/local/java/latest/bin/java: not found
however, "sudo jedit" opens the jedit editor as expected. No error returned.

Java:
Some meddling with custom Java installations was performed and probably the cause of the problem. Details will be disclosed when it is pertinent information.
"which java" returns:
/usr/bin/java
"java -version" returns
java version "1.6.0_22"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.10.4) (6b22-1.10.4-0ubuntu1~11.04.1)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.0-b11, mixed mode)

contents of /usr/bin/jedit.sh:
#!/bin/sh

#
. /usr/lib/java-wrappers/java-wrappers.sh
find_java_runtime java6
find_jars /usr/share/jedit/jedit.jar
run_java org.gjt.sp.jedit.jEdit "$@"

java-wrappers.sh called which calls /usr/lib/java-wrappers/jvm-list.sh

I'm unclear how jedit is determining "/usr/local/java/latest/bin/java" to be the location where java is supposed to be existing. The script that did some butchering to my Ubuntu installation is located here:
https://github.com/talltroym/Railo-Ubuntu-Installer-Script/blob/master/setup-railo.sh
Under the section # Download and Install Java there was some undesirable changes made that I tried to revert from. I deleted /usr/local/java, removed "JAVA_HOME" & "JRE_HOME" from /etc/environment, and deleted the symbolic link "/usr/local/bin/java" in attempts to recover from changes. I'm also boggled why "sudo jedit" runs while "jedit" returns the error.

Hello,

I just noticed that my proxy settings password (which I do not want to expose to anyone) goes directly to .jedit/properties files with no encryption which, i believe, could be unsafe. Is it possible to add a simple encryption and instead of putting it explicitly into the preference file just encode it with some hashing function.

Thanks,
Nik

Hi,
I ask the possibility to reactivate I-O Monitor, inexplicably disappeared in the r. 4.5.pre 1; according to my opinion it worked better of the Task Monitor and in more precise way.

Tanks.

Excused for my poor english.

Evaluating jEdit as replacement for Textpad 4.7.3 ... this is one feature I can't seem to find on any other editor (Even the latest TextPad 5). I see jEdit has the split feature, I see the bufferlist plugin, but the two are not integrated.
