Finally! I found what I was looking for with this topic,

I downloaded the last version but the 'java install' one this time. During instalation it prompts where to install a 'SHORTCUT'. This shortcut is actually a shell file:

----------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
# Java heap size, in megabytes
JAVA_HEAP_SIZE=32
DEFAULT_JAVA_HOME="/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.4.2/Home"
if [ "$JAVA_HOME" = "" ]; then
JAVA_HOME="$DEFAULT_JAVA_HOME"
fi
exec "$JAVA_HOME/bin/java" -mx${JAVA_HEAP_SIZE}m ${JEDIT} -jar "/Applications/jedit.jar" $@
------------------------------------------------------------

so then we can do $jedit file.txt
(cannot make it work doing $sudo jedit file.txt though

I don't think we get this jedit shell file/shortcut with the OSX instalation pakage.

Anyways, I'm very glad to see you guys talking about this topics under OSX, thanks a lot

Well, jedit /etc/httpd/httpd.conf would work, but since you need to put sudo in front of it, it causes problems. There is a way to run/launch jEdit as root, but I can't find my notes on it right now... I'll keep digging.
