I wrote a macro which takes a long time to execute.
(while loop operating on texarea text). While the macro works, jEdit is frozen, and user may think it hanged.
How to notify user that everything is ok?
How to set statusbar message?

How to indicate progress of the macro?
It would be nice to have message box saying: macro in progress… [cancel]

How to use observers in macros?

Been using jEdit for a while now and noticed that sometimes the indentation is showed differently than on other text editors.
For instance, try these lines in gedit and jEdit and you'll notice that the third backslash appears as it is missing a tab in indentation.

#define PG_ALLOC(class) \
(pg_classes[class].pgc_ops->alloc ? \
pg_classes[class].pgc_ops->alloc() : \
pg_classes[pg_default_cid].pgc_ops->alloc())

My settings are set for 8 character long tabs. This is somewhat annoying, anyone knows how to get rid of it?

thanks

How do I run a plugin's buffer operation on all files within my project?

More specifically, I'd like to run the WhiteSpace "remove trailing whitespace" capability on all my .java files (either based on ProjectViewer's file tree or just recursively on file system). I'd like to do the same with LazyImporter's "Quick Import" (to sort my import statements).

Is there a general way to batch execute such operations? Thanks!

Hi All,

I want to use "Indent XML" plugin option in a command line prompt. Is it possible? If it is possible can anyone help me to use the syntax

Is there a plugin or config option to allow me to just place the cursor on a word and then have the Find or Find Again automatically use that word?

Thank you.

Hello,

i have been using jEdit for over 8 years, mostly for developing php apps. A useful feature would be the integration of xdebug http://xdebug.org/ in jEdit. Xdebug is widely supported by other IDEs:

* Dev-PHP (IDE: Windows)
* Eclipse plugin, which has been submitted as an enhancement for the PDT (IDE).
* ActiveState's Komodo (IDE: Windows, Linux, Mac; Commercial).
* NetBeans (IDE: Windows, Linux, Mac OS X and Solaris.
* Notepad++ plugin (IDE: Windows).
* WaterProof's PHPEdit (IDE, from version 2.10: Windows; Commercial).
* Anchor System's Peggy (IDE: Windows, Japanese; Commercial).
* MP Software's phpDesigner (IDE: Windows, Commercial).
* Protoeditor (Editor: Linux).
* tsWebeditor (Editor: Windows).
* Xored's TrueStudio IDE (IDE; Commercial).
* VIM plugin (Tutorial) (Editor Plugin).
* jcx software's VS.Php (MS Visual Studio Plugin; Commercial).
* XDebugClient - Standalone Windows client.

Thank you guys for jEdit!

With regards

I installed jEdit 4.3pre15 and thus needed to install the latest BufferTabs plugin that was released today (0.8.3 will not load on 4.3pre10). Two things:

1. You can no longer change the position of individual tabs by dragging them. Now they'll just stay in whatever position they get loaded in.

2. The jEdit site says 0.8.3 works with 4.2final and up. Unless I need to do some extra leg work to get it loaded with 4.3pre15, that's wrong.

I've decided I want to keep 4.3pre15 with our without movable tabs. Is there a way to get these tabs to change position or do we all have to wait for another release if we want to use 4.3pre15?

Do you have same problem?

There are errors on jEdit Community site.

For example:

user error: Can't open file: 'cache.MYI' (errno: 145)
query: SELECT data, created FROM cache WHERE cid = 'archive:calendar:1217574000' in /home/groups/j/je/jedit-community/htdocs/includes/database.mysql.inc on line 90.

After installing the new jedit, I get a red label 1 error(s) in the lower right. When I double click it, the following stack trace appears. Something in the buffer history seems to be wrong, but how can I fix this?

Hello,

I was wondering if there was a way to display the size of current buffer in the status bar. Many editors show this information, and I think it would be convenient. I did not find anything in the help files on this, perhaps some plugin displays it, but I did not find any either.

Cheers, tvojeho

How can I make macro for "Reload with Encoding UTF-8"? Or can it have a shortcut? I use it often and it is annoying to go through the menu every time.

I use JEdit to write HTML pages containing Japanese. Unicode support is fine and all, but...
If I type in MS Word or Open Office using a Font which doesn't support Japanese characters, the application chooses another font in order to show them. This is more important as it sounds, because a lot of fonts containing Japanese look good when using Japanese, but you get eye cancer when using the Latin character set, and worse, their Latin subset is not monospaced (at least I found no such font for free).
So I'd suggest that you can define a font which will substitute all character the normal font can't display.

Cheers,
Landei

I have recorded macro like this:

SearchAndReplace.setSearchString("\\{[\\s\\t]+"); SearchAndReplace.setReplaceString("\\{ "); SearchAndReplace.setBeanShellReplace(false); SearchAndReplace.setIgnoreCase(true); SearchAndReplace.setRegexp(true); SearchAndReplace.setSearchFileSet(new CurrentBufferSet()); SearchAndReplace.replaceAll(view);

It works fine, but slow and it beeps each time and so on.

How it should be coded using java.util.regex?

Hello,
I installed the Debian distribution of jEdit on my Asus EEE
with no problems, but I'm wondering if anyone has created an
icon and the commands for installing it in Easy Mode.
Thanks

This was working OK at 4.2, but I can't get it to work at 4.3.Pre14 or 15. When I have a perl source file open and go to console> Compile Current Buffer I get errors starting with :
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.gjt.sp.jedit.ActionSet.getAction(Ljava/lang/String;)Lorg/gjt/sp/jedit/EditAction;
at console.ConsolePlugin.compile(Unknown Source)
at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)
at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source)
... and going on for tens of lines.

Everything else seems to be set OK and the edit mode is set to perl.

Any help will be appreciated.

TIA

I have an errorlist being generated from Lint, and so I can move to each warning and error within the code.
What I would like to do is write a macro that, for a given buffer and cursor position is first able to acquire the full path name and file line number (this bit I can do) and then parse the errorlist content looking for a match.
I would then like to insert the comment in the preceding line of the form '/*lint */' which would prevent such errors in future - again. the comment insertion I know how to do.

The question is this - is there a way to parse the errors in the errorlist, extracting file-name, line-number, and error-message for each item in the process?

Im currently learning Java from scratch out of a book, ive installed jEdit fine and starts up no problem. Problem im having, is when im following the book im learning from, it asks me to compile the code, but i dont seem to be able to find a button or option to do it anywhere.

Ive used other editors before for other languages and theres always been an option to compile/build the code to check the syntax is correct.

any help appreciated.

Rob
