how to access the text?
Submitted by phoe on Wednesday, 26 October, 2011 - 11:58
Hey,

I'm currently writing a plugin and need a little help. I already found out how to make code and make it execute every X seconds..

Now there is only one thing to do: How do I access the text in the editor? In some cases I want my code to replace "apple" by "banana" every X seconds.
Any special class/method I need to access the text?

Hope you can help me out

I think the best approach is to look at jEdit source code or some macros like "macros\Editing\Duplicate_Lines_Above.bsh".

Also there is the jedit API doc .
