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?

How do positional parameters work?

Is there a way to make a rectangular selection
by keyboard?

Is there a feature to do drag'n'drop with selected (Rect/linear) text?

If, how can I use it?


thx

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!

Can I set Buffer to do not treat HTML as a plain text when I use clipboard (copy selection from External browser and past into buffer?

Thank you!

Dmitry

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!

Dmitry

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.

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

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

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?

Hello,

I am using jEdit for now a week and I must be seriously missing something as I could not find a way to set it up so that I can compile and execute the Perl script I am developping right now?

Thank you in advance for any hints,
Wojtek

I have tried over and over to do this with the plugin manager and I can't get it to work. I check DotComplete, hit install, and it doesn't even look as though it is trying to install. I am running jEdit 4.1.3 with Java 1.4.2. I tried removing CodeAid to see if that was the problem and it would still not go. I had the same problem for another plugin and I tried just downloading and putting the jar file in my jars directory and that just caused jEdit to crash constantly.

Is it possible to replace block of text?

Is there any way of changing the explicit folding to be activated by anything other than {{{ and }}} for example i want my explicit folds to just work when i put a { or a }

Does anyone know if there exists a way to put jEdit into a "command mode" ala vi? I'd like to be able to hit escape (or any other chosen key sequence) and have a set of keys that allow navigation, selection, open line, etc. Is there a plug-in that would allow that functionality?

I know nobody probably does R2000 programming but for the developers, is there any reason the $t0 register isn't highlighted when in MIPS R2000 mode? It's a minor thing but I was wondering whether there was a specific reason for it.

I do not understand how to get the XML Tree dockable window that I see on the screenshots. I have downloaded the XML plugin but that doesn't seem to help me, how do i do?

Hi!

I want to use a SSH console, because the Perl scripts which I edit should be tested and executed on a remote server. But the Console-Plugin can't handle normal STDIN/STDOUT data, so I can't use plink (Putty Command-Line SSH) and the error detection of the Console-Plugin

Does anyone have an idea how to solve that?

Thanks in advance!

Hello,
Is there a way to get jEdit to print a footer with the date and time the file was last saved and the total number of pages ? (I know it's possible to print the current time and date and the page number). I'm using 4.1 final.
Thanks.

Hello!

I created a gnome like icon customisation package. Some icons are missing, but fixed in the near future.
