-reuseview question
Submitted by gthorburn on Thursday, 21 April, 2005 - 19:59
Using Win 2K professional, jEdit 4.2. I've added -reuseview to the file association.
When a jEdit session is already running, dbl-clicking a file adds it to the view,
as would be expected. But if no jEdit session is running, dbl-clicking a file will
not start up a session if -reuseview is set.

- is this as expected?
- if so, is there a way I can start jEdit and open first file on the first dbl-
click, and open new files in same view with subsequent file dbl-clicks?

I use jedit 4.2 with WinXP, if jedit is not open and I try to open a file with -reuseview, jedit starts successfully on my system. No clue about what happens to you.
I can only suggest you to start jedit at login time, using -background -nogui options, so that jedit is started in background and it will be much quicker to open new editor windows in future. If you use jedit very often, as I do.
 
- reuseview, etc...

My -reuseview problem went away next time I rebooted Win 2K.
Sorry for the false alarm

Anyway, thanks for your suggestion of using -background -nogui,
that certainly speeds up the load.
