jEdit display RTF
Submitted by amysaarimn on Tuesday, 16 April, 2013 - 13:07
Hi
I'm new to jEdit and have it running in a swing app. I need to store files on the local disk in plain text, but want to allow users to work with them in RTF. On the load I'll add in the RTF and then strip it out on the save. Can anyone tell me how to set the content type in jEdit to render RTF correctly? I tried using JEditPane but it supports only limitted RTF - what I really need is the hide feature to keep track of the editing going on.

Thanks for any help
Amy

InfoViewer plugin

Hi,
jEdit is a (plain) text editor, it can't render RTF or anything else. The only way I can see to render RTF is using the InfoViewer plugin. But it renders the file in it's own dockable window. If You want to edit the RTF file You would have to do this as plain text.
