Duplicate Line/Selection
Submitted by Dario_Insane on Monday, 23 January, 2006 - 12:35
i'm new to jedit. and it looks promising. but also a bit overwhelming.. Smiling

how do i implement a 'duplicate line/selection' feature? i assume i have to do this with a macro?

i tried using a copy/paste approach to get at least a 'duplicate line' feature working. but it doesnt do what i want.. :/

i found some text macros for moving lines up/down.. maybe they will help me..

anyway.. any help really appreciated!

regards,

dario

Hi Dario,

You can download Francesc Roses' macro,
but here are the importent lines:

line = textArea.getCaretLine();
offset = textArea.getLineEndOffset(line);
text = textArea.getLineText(line) + "\n";
buffer.insert(offset, text);
textArea.goToNextLine(false);
