Hello,
I am just starting to explore jEdit 5.0 on Mac OS X 10.6.8, and so far I find it all to be very exciting! Thanks for creating such a great piece of software.
I downloaded the markdown.xml Markdown syntax highlighting mode from here:
https://github.com/peterlynch/jEdit-modes
And I tried to add it to jEdit by placing markdown.xml in the same folder as ~/Library/jEdit/modes/catalog
Then I added the following to the catalog and saved it:
However, even after restarting jEdit, the markdown mode still does not appear when I try to change modes in the Buffer Options dialog.
How should I troubleshoot this, did I skip any steps? Thanks!
