plugin doesn't work correctly
Submitted by Anonymous on Monday, 28 June, 2004 - 05:39
I have jedit-4.1 and the appropriate plugins installed and running. On the web site http://lily4jedit.sourceforge.net/
I see these instructions-
Go to Utilites->Global Options and select jEdit->Docking node. Set the following dockings:
* Error List: bottom
* LilyTool: top
* LilyTool Console: bottom
* Structure Browser: left
But when I do this I do not have the lilytool options in the list. The other plugins are listed.
then this -
At jEdit->Editing node:
* set "Change settings for mode:" to "lilypond".
* set "Folding mode" to sidekick".
Again, my menu does not have the option for lilypond, but does have sidekick.
And this point -
Select Plugins->LilyTool node.
* If you use Windows you have to set the path to bash.
* Set the path to your PS viewer.
On my list of plugins I see Lilytool and lots of options but no Node or anything like that.
The biggest problem is I have no syntax highlighting for lilypond, so I have it set to tex to get some highlighting.
I have installed lily4jedit-0.2 and jedit-4.1 on FreeBSD-5.1. I have installed the plugins - lilypondtool, lilyjhelp,sidekick, console, and several others, and the lilymode.xml is in the .jedit/modes directory. I have added the appropriate line from the lilymode.xml file to the catalog file, restarted jedit, and still do not have the above mentioned options and syntax highlighting.
Any suggestions on what to do next?
Thanks,
Chip
I can't find a required plugin
Submitted by Anonymous on Saturday, 26 June, 2004 - 20:39
I would like to use the lilypond plugin for jedit, downloaded and added it to the .jedt/jars directory. Then restarted jedit and it told me I needed another plugin, got it, restarted, now need another plugin, etc, so far about a dozen times. I am still being told I need the plugin jhall.jar. I thought I finally found it and so copied it to the directory but now that results in another error, so I renamed it to .old. Now when I start jedit I am told lilypond plugin requires jhall.jar plugin.
Anyone have this plugin or know where I can get it?
Thanks
python indentation trouble
Submitted by Anonymous on Saturday, 26 June, 2004 - 14:16
hi, i'm trying to use jedit with python, but jedit fails in indentation
e.g
i define a loop ('_' instead of ' ' for readability)
for i in range(10):
____print i
then to get out of the loop, i hit
: but it doesn't unindent as needed, it just goes 1 space back. In every other python editor i've been using for years (emacs, idle, etc) behaves as expected.
for i in range(10):
____print i
___outSideOfTheLoop
instead of
for i in range(10):
____print i
outSideOfTheLoop
so i can't use jEdit to python
Editor/Word Wrap | word margin:0 v4.2 bug?
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 25 June, 2004 - 23:28
In version 4.1 there was possinility to specify word margin:0 (which was an equivalent of 100%) and lines where wrapped nicely by the end of visible textarea. That feature was awesome but in version 4.2 I can't set it to 0 and it force me to select numbers of characters to wrap - I hate it! When I close my left pane it wrap line by that damn 80 chars and whole chunk of textarea just unusable. I've read release notes and it says that margin:0 was removed becouse it unfunctional, but IT IS FUNCTIONAL in v 4.1 Please take it BACK!!!
Or maybe somebody knows that I don't?
Thanks.

JDiff Virtual vs Physical Overview
Submitted by

Thursday, 24 June, 2004 - 14:46
Hi-
Using JDif to compare two long files, I first thought they were identical b/c no 'color bars' showed up. However, by scrolling down I found that there were differences, just not within the current window.
Then I found the JDiff Virtual / Physical option: Physical adds another set of bars to show a complete overview w/o having to scroll, Virtual takes the bars away but reserves the same space for them. So I'm wondering, if the space is always reserved, why have the option? And if in some future release the space can be collapsed, shouldn't the 'Physical' option be the default?
Thanks for JDiff, is a great plug-in!
Platform: OSX 10.3 java 1.4.2, JEdit 4.2 pre 14, JDiff 1.4.1
Thanks,

+line:
Submitted by Anonymous on Thursday, 24 June, 2004 - 13:33
Hello, I am using jEdit 4.2pre14 and seems the +line: option does not work correctly. If I use a line number, say 2000 then the caret is positioned at line 2000 but the screen is not scrolled down to bring up the line in the visible area. You have to scroll down to see the caret/hightlighted line. Any input?
Thanks

Submitted by Anonymous on Thursday, 24 June, 2004 - 11:35
When a .html file is opened, jEdit knows to use HTML syntax highlighing. When a .php file is opened, it knows to yse the PHP syntax highlighing. What extension is needed to that jEdit will use pl-sql syntax highlighting when a file is opened?
How do you use Jedit, what feature is most useful to you?

Just find it interesting.
Looking from the download count, quite some people download "strange" mode. Seems people use it for different purposes.
Personally I use it as text editor (not all text editing task). Mainly its regular expression support is very useful to me. Some macros are also very useful, especially the "add prefix and surfix" macro. Sometimes when editing html file, I use it to understand file struecture, because of its "find matching tag" feature.
What are you useing it for?
Search and Replace a Part of a Regular Expression
Submitted by

Tuesday, 22 June, 2004 - 20:36
How would one replace only a portion of a regular expression match?
For example, I have lots of entries in my html that have been typed in like..
<a href="http://www.fxweb.holowww.com/tracker/">
WebTracker</a>
Web visitor tracking software
<br />
and I want to reformat them all to look like..
<a href="http://www.fxweb.holowww.com/tracker/">
WebTracker</a> Web visitor tracking software
<br />
My Search: </a>\s*[^<]
in the above case matches: </a> \n W
which I want to replace with: </a> W
How do I grab the W or any other letter that is found by the regular expression term [^<] in order to put it back into the Replace phrase?

broken syntax highlightning when typing "<style *>".
Submitted by Anonymous on Monday, 21 June, 2004 - 09:26
Hello,
I m using jEdit for XML / XSL developing, having the appropriate plugins installed.
Everything is working great, except when typing "<style *>". When doing this, the behavior of the syntax highlighning changes suddenly into a mode where most of the text is displayed black below the style element.
My question is, how can I det rid of it, and where does this behavior come from?
thanks!

InfoViewer: If there anything I can do to make External Browser instance (IE) working instead of Internal(inside InfoView tab)
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 18 June, 2004 - 19:13
I'm wondering if there anything I can do to make External Browser instance (IE) working instead of Internal (inside InfoView tab). Just that mini browser works really poor with complex pages and it would be really helpful to have IE instead of it - just like Homsite have (Browse tab or F12 key). Also would be cool to have server mapping but it sound like big feature request maybe..
Thank you for an answer!

Disabling/controlling auto indent
Submitted by Anonymous on Thursday, 17 June, 2004 - 14:17
How do I turn off auto indent? I can't seem to find a switch in the global options. Or better yet, how do I turn off some of its "smartness". I hate it changing the indentation while I'm in the middle of a line typing. Like putting in a "}" first (which unindents) and then going back and putting in the "{". It should at least undo it's unindent in that case.
Questions about key bindings; getting the Control key to work in OS X, is there an editable file?; and other key-related questio
Submitted by
kmmcdonald on
Tuesday, 15 June, 2004 - 03:04
As the topic line suggests, I'm using jEdit in OS X, and one of the problems I'm finding is that I cannot assign control-key-combos to actions. For example, I'd like to bind ^a to the command to move to the start of a line, but typing Ctrl-a in the key bindings interface doesn't do anything--though typing Command-a does set the key binding to 'C-a'. It appears as if my Control key (and for that matter, the Alt key) aren't being processed properly (though in the case of the alt key, it does have an effect, just not a useful one; 'Alt-m' produces a 'mu' character, which I suppose might actually work as a binding, but I'm reluctant to proceed with it.)
Also, for defining large numbers of bindings, I find the bindings dialog to be a little annoying. Is there a file of bindings anywhere which can be hand-edited? I looked, but did not find...
And still more...is it possible to have particular sets of bindings associated with particular types of files, i.e. one set of bindings for *.py files, another for *.c?
And finally...is there documentation anywhere for using python to script jedit? It'd be very nice for me to be able to do this...
Thanks,
Ken
Automatically going to syntax/runtime errors in Python files
Submitted by
kmmcdonald on
Monday, 14 June, 2004 - 22:39
A quick search under "python" didn't show anything relevant, so forgive me if this
has been discussed before. (I suspect it has). I use jEdit (currently 4.2pre11--should
probably upgrade) to program in Python, and would love to be able to:
1) Hit a key to have the current Python file executed,
2) Have any error-related output sent to the Error List
window, and have the editing cursor relocated to the point
of the last reported error, if that file is currently the 'topmost'
displayed file in jEdit.
Using 'Macros>Misc>Run Script', I can get the file to be run,
but all of the resultant output shows up in the Console, and
errors are not written to the error list.
Is there a way to do this for Python?
Thanks,
Ken
Searching multiple file types.
Submitted by Anonymous on Monday, 14 June, 2004 - 21:55
I know this is a RTFM situation, and I have - but am having a senior moment.
I want to search *.xml and *.java files.
I know in 4.2pre11 *.xml|*.java in the filter would do this for me. (I still have it on one of my other machines.) But in 4.2pre12 that doesn't work.
What am I missing?
