( I've just started using jEdit, so probably done something dumb ... )

When I first start up jEdit, it doesn't apply the settings I changed under Global Options. After starting jEdit, I have to go to the Global Options dialog (where I can see that all my changed settings have been loaded), click Apply, then click OK, after which all the fonts, key assignments and so forth are applied. How can I make it do that automatically?

I'm running the Debian Linux jedit package, version 4.3.2.

Hello,
I installed Context Help plugin and now I am trying how it works. I open some PHP file, select some function (e.g. str_replace), click Plugins > Context Help > Search Keyword. But nothing hapens.

What am I doing wrong? Thank you.

Hello,
how can I use PHP completion in jEdit? Something like this: michal.webshake.cz/userfiles/completion.png . I just want PHP native functions support.

If I use CTRL+B shortcut, I can see names of functions, but can't see any functions parameters or return types.

Thanks for answers

Using jEdit 4.4.1 in Win7

Some of my files include strings with special accented and international characters.

These will display and compile fine during a jEdit session.
Then at random future opening of these files, jEdit will replace these characters with two other unrelated special chars.
How can I prevent jEdit from making these replacements?

I'm curious whether there is a vim-like command line that I can access with a key shortcut in jEdit. Something that I can do things like s///g regex replaces, open a file, etc.

Being more keyboard-centric, the various GUI's can be rather cumbersome, especially the one for search-and-replace. It'd be easier (for me, at least) to be able to hot-key, open and type the filename as well as s///g for search-and-replace.

Hi

I am trying to find a way to enable automcomplete of brackets ( ) [ ] { } etc. The only thing I can find is a link to an unauthorized plugin called firstmate. Is there a way to enable autocompletion?

Hi there,

I am trying to write a mode for a simulator. The syntax looks like

Quasistationary (<options>) {<equations>}
Transient (<options>) {<equations>}

I'd like to match Quasistationary and Transient separately and somehow handle the <options> and <equations> in different rules. I tried something like:

<SPAN_REGEXP TYPE="KEYWORD3" DELEGATE="QS_OPTION"><BEGIN>Quasistationary\s*\(</BEGIN><END>)</END></SPAN_REGEXP>
<SPAN_REGEXP TYPE="KEYWORD3" DELEGATE="QS_EQ"><BEGIN>.*\{</BEGIN><END>}</END></SPAN_REGEXP>
<SPAN_REGEXP TYPE="KEYWORD3" DELEGATE="TRANS_OPTION"><BEGIN>Transient\s*\(</BEGIN><END>)</END></SPAN_REGEXP>
<SPAN_REGEXP TYPE="KEYWORD3" DELEGATE="TRANS_EQ"><BEGIN>.*{</BEGIN><END>}</END></SPAN_REGEXP>

However, the problem with this approach is, that Transient equations (line 4) are captured by the Quasistationary equations (line 2) already.

Any ideas how to solve this?

Thanks in advance

When I'm in the file explorer view how can I quickly expand a directory and all sub directories - on Mac OSX? (Natively in Finder I do this with Alt and then select the folder arrow and it opens all directories.)

Is there a plugin that can add Javadoc comments to methods and classes?
Like:
/**
* @param
* @throws
*/

Hello all! I didn't see this topic in previous postings so don't kill me if it's been addressed previously. The issue is that I am coding in java and the syntax highlighting colors are not the normal scheme I've seen everywhere else in the world. Comments are orange and red for some reason, the "import" statement is showing up green, and the other colors are off as well. I understand that I can change the syntax highlighting colors and related options in jEdit for my java code, but I would rather use the typical default colorings for java syntax without having to manually change each of them. In screenshots I see that other people have their highlighting for .java code set up as I am used to seeing it in other programs, but when I am coding in jEdit, the colors are all strange and unusual to me, not the typical java colors. Is there any reason for that? Either way, is there any way I can change it en masse to the standard color scheme? Maybe compying an .xml file from somewhere... =) Thanks for the help!

Hi - I'm trying to use the RubyPlugin for doing some RoR work. I can't find any of the Rails specific ones such as has_many, belongs_to, etc. though the article at http://www.eadz.co.nz/blog/article/ruby-rails-jedit.html states that this should work.. I've checked to ensure that the ruby parser is specified in SideKick. I do see Ruby methods in the dropdown - e.g. hash... So I'm not sure if the plugin is only for Ruby auto-completion. Anyone have any insight? Thanks!

I'm using jEdit 4.4.2 and the latest version 4.4.3 of Console plugin. Once I open Console and type ls, I'd expect to see the directory listing but it shows me a blank line. I suspect the output is being redirected to a background shell? How do I get the output to show? One of the consequences of this is that when I fire up a Ruby shell or a Rails console, I don't see the prompts at the beginning of the line, which makes the output a bit hard to read.

Every time I start jEdit, I get a pop up from the Mac asking
Do you want the application "jEdit.app" to accept incoming network connections?

Every time I click Allow. Why does it keep asking?

Is there a way to make the Allow permanent or where can I configure jEdit to not request network access?

This is not just a Mac issue since I don't get that popup for Firefox or other network applications I use.

I've looked at the notify settings for my account but the description there sounds like I'll be notified of all new posts. I only want to be notified about posts in topics I have posted to. Is that possible?

Thanks.

Hi,

I am totaly new in the usage of jEdit. I just finished a small macro for a "find&replace" purpose in about a hundred txt files.

Is there a way to tell jEdit to run the macro on all files in a specific directory ?

Hey,

I'm currently writing a plugin and need a little help. I already found out how to make code and make it execute every X seconds..

Now there is only one thing to do: How do I access the text in the editor? In some cases I want my code to replace "apple" by "banana" every X seconds.
Any special class/method I need to access the text?

Hope you can help me out

I've switched from openjdk 6 to sun java 6 and now my jEdit won't start.

I'm running Ubuntu 11.10. I reset my JAVA_HOME variable in my .profile file.

I get the same error message when trying to launch jEdit from the terminal by either typing "jedit" or "java -jar jedit.jar" from the installation directory. It says

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_29/jre/lib/i386/xawt/libmawt.so: libXtst.so.6: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64

...

Reinstalling jEdit didn't work. Any ideas?

I've discovered that if I use "indent" as my code folding setting, if I fold a section of code (parent) that itself has indents (children), when I expand the parent, the children have been folded, even though they weren't initially.

I would have expected that any code should reappear as it was before; ie any folded code should stay folded, whilst unfolded should remain visible.

Is there any way to change this behaviour?

I'm auditing a large group of text files and I need to identify lines that do NOT contain a particular text string (for example, find all rows not containing the text "xyz"). XYZ may or may not occur on a word boundary. I have not been able to figure out the regexp to accomplish this.

Alternatively, if the hyper-search returned every line with a count of the number of occurences per-line prepended to each row, that would solve it too.

Thanks!
