Automatic Capitalization?
Submitted by fidian on Monday, 11 June, 2007 - 15:10
I was hoping to write a new edit mode for jEdit for UniBasic based off of one I have for UltraEdit. UltraEdit supports automatic capitalization, so I can type in "next" and when I press space or type in a symbol, it will automatically capitalize it to "NEXT". This helps me type code much faster, since I hate holding down shift and UniBasic requires capitalization on its flow control statements, reserved words, etc.

Is there any way that automatic capitalization can happen with an edit mode, or is there a plugin that already handles something like this? I did look through the plugin descriptions on the plugin manager, but none seemed to fit the use I have.

Is this even possible?

If this is not even possible with the current jEdit slew of plugins and features, just let me know and I'll go back to (ick) UltraEdit. I would just like to get a knowledgeable someone to tell me any information at all about making words automatically change case as I specify in some sort of config file.
 
Unibasic Syntax Highlight

Did you ever complete your unibasic highlight? If so - would you mind sharing it? I have tried to create my own (based off a modified vbscript) but would like to have one from someone who knows the language a bit more.

You can just add an abbreviations for the keywords to the given mode and set the expansion to happen on space. But try to check out the SuperAbbrevs plugin if you want to expand hole control structures. Here is a demo http://www.we-knowhow.dk/jedit/demo.html
