jEdit Community - Resources for users of the jEdit Text Editor
Jump to previous selection position
Submitted by rwprogrammer on Tuesday, 20 September, 2005 - 01:13
I would like the editor to remember the last (e.g. 10) places where your cursor has been. Then you could just use a keyboard shortcut to cycle through the most recent cursor locations.

E.g.: You are editing code in one area and you need to know the function definition for functionX, so you search for it and possibly edit it, and then you want to simply hop back to the previous character location...or maybe to the place you were editing even before that.

(If you are familiar with the Visual Studio VB 6.0 or .NET IDEs then you might know what I am talking about. They implimented this very nicely. It is CS+F2 in vb6 and C+'-' in .net)

If this is already implimented, just let me know. I may have missed it.
Thanks

Try the DynaMarker plugin.

I use it in exact the way you described in your example.

Thanks for the reply!

That is what I was looking for.
It took me a while to find the DynaMarker plugin, since it is not included with the jEdit distribution.

If anyone else is looking for it, it can be found here:
http://www.bitart.com/software.html

(I am however, gettings some errors once in a while when I jump to the previous or next mark:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: caret out of bounds: 2071)

Sorry, I downloaded it long time ago and didn't remember that it was not available via plugins.jedit.org.
