Session plugin - saving problem ftp user
Submitted by ottar on Wednesday, 6 April, 2011 - 09:52
There's an error when saving a session with files that are opened from a ftp-server and where you need to use domain name and user name to log on to the ftp-server.
An example:
I open file ftp://domainname\user@host.com:21/file.txt
Session saves this: ftp://domainname/user@host.com:21/file.txt
jEdit tryes to open: ftp://domainname:21/user@host.com:21/file.txt

If session had saved ftp://domainname\user@host.com:21/file.txt, it wouldn't be a problem.

Submitted by sebo on Thursday, 7 April, 2011 - 09:25
Hello,

I'm new to jedit. I was using ultraedit before... I was used to perform a search usign key F3 whenever a word was selected.
How to configure jedit to do that?

So far, I have to use Ctrl-F and paste the word I want to search into.

thanks.

Python and JPyDebug Config
Submitted by flebber on Friday, 8 April, 2011 - 10:39
Can I ask a little advice on configuration of Python for Jedit? I have installed JPyDebug as I found it a suggested plugin in another thread. It is installed but how do I actually configure it to work, as I am not quite sure on how to get it working?

Is there anything else that should be installed to make Jedit a productive environment? is there a stylecop or Pylint feature?

Thanks

Ctagsinterface: including arguments of tagged functions in tooltips?
Submitted by tp21 on Monday, 11 April, 2011 - 12:07
Is this possible through ctags invocation options possibly? Apologies if that's a stupid question. A feature request there's no way at the mo? Would be lush.
Macro for searching an identifier within the current SideKick asset (updated) (Search Asset Exact.bsh v0.2 by Shlomy Reinstein)
Submitted by shlomy on Monday, 11 April, 2011 - 12:39
This macro searches for a selected string (or the identifier under the caret) within the scope of the current SideKick asset. This macro can be useful for locating all occurrences of a variable inside a function - if the function is a SideKick asset. When using CtagsSideKick with C/C++/Java code, for example, putting the caret on a local variable (in a function) and invoking this macro will search the variable (whole word) inside the current function. This is a small update from the previous macro that I submitted, which also takes care of selecting the result that belongs to the current caret line in the hypersearch results.
BufferList and multiple selection
Submitted by dnagy on Wednesday, 13 April, 2011 - 00:03
In the BufferList pane I used to be able to select multiple files, as you would in windows explorer, using the shift and control key. Recently this behaviour stopped.

A first click on a file "bolds" it and a second selects it (adds a background colour). Once a file was selected I could then add more files using control or shift. This doesn't happen anymore.

Is there another way to do multiple selections?
Lost my hypersearch floating window
Submitted by UnConundrum on Wednesday, 13 April, 2011 - 14:53
I'm a somewhat infrequent user of JEdit but have most of the basics down. While doing a rails upgrade to an existing project, I was searching the directory for similar degraded code, which worked fine. Separate, floating hypersearch window was wonderfult. At some point, it disappeared. I have no idea what I did to cause it. I can go into global options and dock it, where it works fine, but I would prefer that it float. If I change it back to floating, I get nothing, so I have to go back to docked to see any results. Does anyone have any ideas on how to recover the floating version of hypersearch? Thanks in advance

Set up in a project then link to current PHP project as a dependency to get full function prototypes in ctagsinterface code completion popups and tooltips.
Markers and Line selection - Need Help.
Submitted by FatDog on Friday, 15 April, 2011 - 16:45
Hello. I am a developer trying to switch from Years of using Multi-Edit/Brief to JEdit.

I need a macro that will select a range of lines so I can then TAB or Shift-Tab or Delete or search within the selected area.

My old macro would do this:

* Look for the ending tag, set a marker.
* Search backwards for the starting tag, set a marker.
* Go to the end marker and start line text selection
* Jump to starting marker so that all lines from End to Start are selected.
* Stop

This then returns control to me, but leaves many lines selected so I can indent or tab or delete or copy, etc.

I am looking through the textArea API. I see deprecated calls like "getMarkLine()" which look like the functions I want - but it's deprecated.

Basically - interacting with Markers and selecting text - I'm just not getting how to do it. Any advice would be helpful.
Added own doc for Ruby plugin
Submitted by loula427 on Friday, 15 April, 2011 - 16:52
Hi everyone,

I used jEdit since a while but for Perl, I now programming in Ruby and I had found the ruby plugins it's really helpful.
But I'm wondering to know if it's possible to add my own documentation for my project, in fact we work on a big application and we have our documentation.
So I just want to add a link to our doc on "ruby doc". I don't find the way to make that.

Thanks for your help.
Autoclose Brackets
Submitted by CJreige on Saturday, 16 April, 2011 - 02:31
Hi everybody.

I think this has been asked before but I need to make double sure. Is there a setting (or plugin) that will autoclose brackets, braces, & parentheses? I've seen a couple of forum responses that suggest using abbreviations. I don't want this solution as I'd have to either use the space bar or c+;. I use jEdit as my principle tool for coding. It'd be great to have this small feature added.
Is it a bug for code completing?jEdit 4.3
Submitted by daition on Saturday, 16 April, 2011 - 08:33
Hi all,
I'm a newbie to jEdit, I like it very much except the feature - code complete. Here is the problem I met.

I've installed both SideKick and JavaSideKick. When I type in a dot after the name of a class or an object, only class methods are shown. Eg.When I typed in "System.", all the methods of class "System" will be shown; however, when I typed in "JFrame a = new JFrame()" and "a.", nothing was shown.

Could anyone give any hint? Or is it a bug for jEdit plugins?

Thanks in advance!

JEdit crashes when usb device (disk or key) is hot plugged
Submitted by henri on Wednesday, 20 April, 2011 - 08:48
This happens on windows 7. Has anybody experienced this ?
Whilst not critical, this is annoying and i'd hate to have to use another editor.
