jEdit does not distinguish between the two plus signs on a keyboard.

When I set a shortcut from Utilities> Global Options> Shortcuts, jEdit doesn't want to distinguish between the two plus signs on a keyboard. It sees typing plus sign ("+") using the number pad and a plus sign typing shift with the equals sign ("=") as typing the same key.

This also holds true for the left/right ALT key, left/right CTRL key and the left/right WIN key.

jEdit needs to distinguish between the keys so I can set a shortcut using the number pad plus sign while also leaving the plus sign (next to the backspace on the keyboard) not set to a shortcut.

AutoIt (Windows automation language) distinguishes between the following keys when setting a hotkey or sending text (using HotKeySet() and Send(), respectively):

Plus ("+") keys: {+}, {NUMPADADD}
ALT keys: {LALT}, {RALT}
CTRL keys: {LCTRL}, {RCTRL}
WIN keys: {LWIN}, {RWIN}

Here are the Send Commands and the Resulting Keypress
http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/functions/Send.htm


Example using AutoItScript:

HotKeySet('{+}', 'ShowMessageOne')
HotKeySet('{NUMPADADD}', 'ShowMessageTwo')

Func ShowMessageOne()
MsgBox(4096,'','You pressed the plus sign next using SHIFT + PLUS SIGN!')
EndFunc
Func ShowMessageTwo()
MsgBox(4096,'','You pressed the plus sign next using the number pad!')
EndFunc
While 1
Sleep(10)
WEnd

^In the above AutoItScript script, it differentiates between the two plus sign keys.

When I try File | Open or Save As operations jEdit apparently writes up the dialog because I hear disk activity and see Input/Output complete in the status bar. The dialog is no where to be seen. Any other menu operations are met with a beep which normally indicates a modal dialog is expecting input. gets rid of it and I can then use other menu options. I'm using jEdit 4.3pre10 with java 1.6.0_03. Things went wrong when I was trying to open a file and got bored waiting for the dialog to appear (network share). I am using Microsoft Virual Desk Manager (MSVDM) and switched to another desktop to start up some music. While I was on the other desktop the File Open dialog appeared and then disappeared. Now I can't get the File Open dialog on any desktop. I've rebooted and reinstalled jEdit but it hasn't made any difference. I'm guessing that some config file in jEdit has got confused and isn't loading the dialog in the right place in the display. Does any one know if this might be so and, if so, how I can reset it? Thanks for any suggestions. with regards, Lummo

How can I do that?

I have been looking around and this is the only thing I found, dated back on 2006, about my problem.

In short, favorites can become very ugly: it always shows protocol://username@host+path

If you start saving favorites with long paths and ips the list can become almost illegible really fast.

Is there a way of customizing the name? on the favorites list?

Hi...
I am new to jEdit but I can't seem to work out how to close Buffers properly in jEdit. (i'm using jedit 4.13pre15 and java 1.6u10)
Ok. I am working on 3 buffers and I close jedit. When i reopen, the last buffer i was working with does not reappear as the current buffer or in the list but one of the other two buffers appears. If i try to close this file using Close or Close (global) it will not close.

If I am working with only one buffer and I close jedit, when i repopen jedit, it has the buffer that I was working with but I cannot close it.

Thanks for the help

Hi!

I have a macro which updates comments at the beginning of the buffer.
Then, when I edit the file and press Ctrl+Z, cursor goes to the beginning of file,
where macro operated.

How to disable undo temporary, so commands executed in macro were not registered in history?

I have a couple of questions related to plugins.

Firstly, I'd like to install the latest version of JDiffPlugin (2.1.0) on a Mac (OS 10.4). Why doesn't this version of JDiffPlugin appear in the plugin repository? All I can see is 1.4.2.

Secondly, I've downloaded the binary version of the JDiffPlugin. However I can't find the .jar file. All I can see is a whole lot of .class files and some other bits and pieces. I thought I needed a .jar file.

How do I install this plugin?

Cheers,

Chris

The Ruby plugin is great, but it contains a lot of features that change how normal data entry into a jEdit buffer works, and not all of these can be turned off.

In particular, I really, really want to turn off the auto-complete for ", (, /, etc. I know a lot of people like this feature, so I understand why it's turned on as default, but why is there no option to disable it? (other than uninstalling RubyPlugin, which I have now done)

Personally, the main reason I like jEdit is because it DOESN'T try to be helpful like this unless I tell it to - if I wanted TextMate or Aptana, I'd get it, thanks. I love the RubyPlugin API browser and error detection, and I'd really like to be able to use these features without the plug-in changing my favourite thing about jEdit.

Please, keep the feature, maybe even keep it as activated by default, but please let me disable it if I want to. It seems like exactly the sort of thing that should have a toggle-on, toggle-off feature.

Thanks!

(p.s. if anyone knows any hacks I could use now to cut it out myself I'd be really grateful, thanks)

Hello,

Screen Reader´s like VoiceOver on a Mac does not interact with JEdit! Users can not listen to their text while typing. (May be it is possible to bridge the gap with a macor or apple script?)

the toolbox icon will be found by VoiceOver (Screen Reaser of Mac OS X) There are tool tip tests too, but VoiceOver can not read it.

the web site of cmmunity has also problems with accessibility!

Hello All!

JEdit is a powerful tool to support the development of source code and applications. the rise the usability is it possible to increase the accessibility for handicaped developer. Screen Reader like VoiceOver (Mac OS X) or JAWS (Windows) transform screen content into speech or brailie.

User of JEdit e.g. can not listen to their text while tipping or moving the cursor through the text.

Hello, Is there any chance of getting SupperAbrrevs to process variable twice? I'm trying to do something like that, but it doesn’t work: ${1:public} <# if ("$1" == "private") { #> <#= "_" #> <# } #> If user enters "private" it should write underscore. Another problem is processing entered variables like this: /** * Setter for property '${1:property}' * * @access ${2:public} * @name set<# fu = "$1"; fu = fu.toUpperCase(); #><#= fu #> * @param ${3:string} \$$1 $4 * @return ${5:null} */ $2 function set${1=firstUp(s)}(\$$1) { \$this->${6:_}$1 = \$$1; } $end It returns setter in PHP like this: /** * Setter for property 'property' * * @access public * @name setproperty * @param string $property * @return null */ public function setProperty($property) { $this->_property = $property; } But I want to have camelCase setProperty after @name How to achieve that? -- regards, takeshin

Hallo,

the download of the plugin TextAutocomplete 0.9.8b do not work.
Does anybody know why ?
How can I solve the problem.
Thanks.
Berthold.

When I use jEdit (4.3 pre 15) to view a jar file. I am having an encoding issue.

a) Error message on start - The file could not be loaded correctly ... with the encoding xxx
b) There are a lot of square boxes in the code.

I assume that this is an encoding related issue. I have tried a number of various encoding schemes and I always get the items mentioned above.

In addition I have added a number of Plug-ins but they have not resolved the issue.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

jEdit used to work just fine on my MacBook Pro OS X 10.5.5. Now when I try to start it up there's a flash then nothing. In the system.log is the following:

The odd thing is there's no MRJApp.properties file in the jEdit.app package I downloaded. Why is it suddenly looking for this file?

Thanks,
Jim

I badly need the Zenburn theme applied to my Jedit ... got an eye problem to solve.
I saw Dale applied this theme to the Lipstik look and feel, available via the "Look and Feel" plugin. Screenshot: http://www.jedit.org/index.php?page=screenshot&image=35
Now, I'm asking any of you, that can compile the SVN code, to please offer me the jar of the new Look and Feel plugin;
- the new jar of the Lipstik look I already copied, but this is not enough to set the Zen theme.

Also any other possibilities of applying a Zenburn theme is welcomed.

Thanks, Vlad
