Command Line Plugin
Submitted by on Monday, 22 January, 2007 - 05:34
Hi,
I'm pretty new to writing plugins for jEdit. So please don't flame me.
I want to write a plugin so that I can right click on a file or directory in the file browser and have a command line program run with the path of the selected file/dir passed as an argument. I'd like the output displayed in a popup box (or similar).
The command line programs I want to run in particular are:
svn status
svn log
ie programs where no input is required (except for command line arguments)
Could anyone give me a hint as to how hard this might be? I can code in java, so I don't mind implementing it myself.
Just a few hints to get me going would be enough. Thanks!
