Lilypond plugin
Submitted by john smit on Saturday, 4 December, 2004 - 00:29
Hope someone can help me with the following problem.
I installed the lilypond plugin.
Plugins > LilyTool.
When I say > Run Lilypond: I get the message:
Error running external command.
Please ensure that bash path is set up correctly in Plugins>PluginOptions>LilyTool.

question: where is my path?
jEdit is in: C:/Program Files/jEdit.
LilyPond 2.2.5. is in: C:/cygwin/usr/src/lilypond-2.2.5

I am puzzled.
thanks

How to get jEdit v4.2 open files in same instance?
Submitted by a992400 on Friday, 3 December, 2004 - 03:58
In jEdit v4.1, every time I opened a subsequent file using right-click on the file, it would open in the existing instance of jEdit. jEdit v4.2 starts a new instance for each one, forcing me to Alt+Tab back and forth. How do I get jEdit v4.2 to open multiple files in the same instance?

backslash in macro with gnu.regexp not possible
Submitted by Anonymous on Sunday, 28 November, 2004 - 17:36
Trying to write a macro for removing empty lines I found that the beanshell interpreter breaks on the regular expression definition
String blankLine = new String("^\s$");
This is very annoying because working with regular expressions without backslash is simply impossible.
Error reads:
Sourced file: /home/kister/.jedit/macros/Shrink_Blank_Lines.bsh Token Parsing Error: Lexical error at line 18, column 41. Encountered: "\\" (92), after : "\'^":
Versions are: jedit 4.2 final on Linux and Blackdown JDK 1.4.1
Any help would be highly recommended.

Look and Feel trouble?
Submitted by eposse on Friday, 26 November, 2004 - 20:31
Hi. I'm having trouble with the look and feel options. jEdit comes with 3 default L&Fs: Metal, Motif and Windows, but whenever I change it, it is completely ignored, and I can only get the Metal look. I've tried installing the LookAndFeel plugin, but only two worked: Kunststoff and Metouia. The others, Skin and Oyoaha say there are some missing (nameless) files.

Is there a way to make these work? How about the Windows look?

I have the problem both under Windows (XP) and Linux (SuSE 9).
bash shell in console bar
Submitted by Anonymous on Monday, 22 November, 2004 - 23:25
Hello.
I've downloaded and installed the console plugin and his dependencies.
After the installation in typed bash in the "System" Console, the prompt appeared
and I tested my *.sh scripts. Fine.
But it only works one time. When I try to start bash on the next day the two animated arrows
(recyling icon) "turn around" but there appears no promt.
After a while when I type e.g. ls there's the following error message
"/bin/bash: line 1: ls: command not found"
I think its curious that it works only the first time after the installation.
Can you help me?

XML plugin problem
Submitted by Anonymous on Saturday, 20 November, 2004 - 22:55
I feel like I overlooked something obvious, but anyway: here's my problem - the xml plugin doesn't recognize the xhtml doctype if it's not at the beginning of file. I have a file with some php code (which doesn't output anything) followed by some xhtml and I need that php on the beginning because of headers. Is there any way to make the XML plugin ignore the php code and recognize the doctype even if it's not on the first line?
TAB key stops working
Submitted by Anonymous on Saturday, 20 November, 2004 - 12:06
I'm using JEdit to edit Java source code. I use the TAB key to indent. It seems to work just fine until suddenly the TAB key seems to stop working. That is, when I press the TAB key at the start of a new line to indent it, nothing happens.

I have found that if I close the file, exit Jedit, then try editing the same file again, the TAB key again seems to work properly, for a while. After a while, the TAB key again seems to stop responding.

I have no idea what I am doing wrong.

custom classes in jcompiler
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 19 November, 2004 - 20:00
Hi,
im new to java and jedit(great features) my main problem is that i have to use custom classes that come with my learning script. First is there a global dir where java looks for them? Second i added the path to the classpath in jcompiler: /home/Programmierung/classes/
When i compile my helloworld:

import javakurs.io.*;

public class BeispielApp {
public static void main( String[] argv )
{

Ausgabe.println( "Hello World" );

}

}

it runs trough and dont seem to make errors, but when i wanna run my prog with the console java i get this:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javakurs/io/AusgabeFenster at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method) at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass(ClassLoader.java:620) at java.security.SecureClassLoader.defineClass(SecureClassLoader.java:124) at java.net.URLClassLoader.defineClass(URLClassLoader.java:260) at java.net.URLClassLoader.access$100(URLClassLoader.java:56) at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:195) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:188) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:306) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:268) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:251) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal(ClassLoader.java:319) at javakurs.io.Ausgabe.(Ausgabe.java:31) at BeispielApp.main(BeispielApp.java:7) Process java exited with code 1

I tested the same settings in eclipse and it runs fine.
this is the eclipse entry:


so what i am doing wrong?
Or is there a better way to set the classes and run/compile my stuff?

thx so far
Uninstalling JEdit

I/O thread blocking when there is available threads
Submitted by Anonymous on Thursday, 18 November, 2004 - 20:35
I am trying to identify or at least understand the I/O thread. When I do a search in a project, it takes some time, during that time, I cannot open a file because Jedit reports that 1 I/O operation is in progress. However when I view the available I/O threads in utilities/troubleshooting, I see that I can have up to 4. So why cannot I open a file when there is an empty I/O thread slot available ?
Do I have to tell Jedit to use threads in parallel ? Is there a setting where I can increase the number of threads ? Thanks a lot.
jEdit creates new view for each file that is opened from Konquerer in KDE
Submitted by Anonymous on Saturday, 13 November, 2004 - 22:48
jEdit creates new view for each file that is opened from Konquerer in KDE. I think that it correctly connects to the already running jEdit server, because the existing view(s) are updated with the new file. However, I only want one view and rather use the buffer switcher. What's the point of having a jEdit server that is the only running instance of the program, if this instance starts spawning several windows? How can I achieve it to prevent jEdit from opening a new view for every new file?
Source Control & VSS
Submitted by tct592 on Monday, 8 November, 2004 - 17:29
Can't get the plugin to work, have tried downloading from site and through JEdit. I have updated the properties file in the jar file, but am getting the following error:

MSVisualSourceSafeImpl - is not in the working folder of the specified VSS Projects - set projects in the VSSIntegration.

When you download thru plugin manager you just get the jar file, I have downloaded the full zip file but have no idea where to put the above class file.

Any help would be greatly appreicated.
Window can't be resized / moved
Submitted by Anonymous on Monday, 8 November, 2004 - 15:41
Suddenly i have a strange behaviour. The main jEdit window can not be resized anymore. It has allways the maximum size (screen size - WinTaskbar). I.E. i click the toggle icon for maximize/default-size but nothing happens. It still occupies all of the screen. Interestingly jEdit start up with the maximized window. Minimizing the window, so that only the taskbar icon is visible works ok.

Unfortunately I don't know what has changed. A colleague of mine worked on my PC for just one day and now i have the maximum window effect Sad

jEdit on z/OS
Submitted by clintolson on Friday, 5 November, 2004 - 19:28
I trying to run jedit on z/OS (IBM mainframe) with Unix System Services with the following JVM: java version "1.3.1" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1) Classic VM (build 1.3.1, J2RE 1.3.1 IBM OS/390 Persistent Reusable VM build cm131s-20040117 (JIT enabled: jitc)) I was able to install jedit (java -jar jedit42install.jar) just fine. Unfortunately, when I start jedit there seems to be a problem reading jedit config files, specifically XML files. I get errors like this: [error] ActionSet: jar:file:/u/act026/tools/jedit/jedit.jar!/org/gjt/sp/jedit/actions.xml:1: expected character (found "s") (expected "<") [error] DockableWindowManager: jar:file:/u/act026/tools/jedit/jedit.jar!/org/gjt/sp/jedit/dockables.xml:1: expected character (found "s") (expected "<") [error] ServiceManager: jar:file:/u/act026/tools/jedit/jedit.jar!/org/gjt/sp/jedit/services.xml:1: expected character (found "s") (expected "<") [error] jEdit: /u/act026/tools/jedit/modes/catalog:1: expected character (found "s") (expected "<") jedit will start but it will be unusable because none of its actions are registered correctly.

Few fonts to choose (Linux, Java 1.4.2, jEdit 4.2)
Submitted by Anonymous on Thursday, 4 November, 2004 - 16:54
Hi all,

I only have extremely few fonts in the font selection dialogues.

It's: Bitstream Charter, Courier, Courier 10 Pitch, Cursor, Default, Dialog, DialogInput, Lucida Bright, Lucida Sans, Lucida Sans Typewriter, Luxi Mono, Luxi Sans, Luxi Serif, Monospaced, SansSerif, Serif, Utopia.

Furthermore, most fonts I choose look the same. For expample, Monospaced and Lucida Sans Typewriter are exactly the same.

I would like to use Bitstream Vera Sans Mono, my favorite font, TrueType, looks a bit like Verdana but even cleaner IMHO, and there's also the mono-version for editing Eye-wink.
I use it everywhere else (except in a terminal). It works with GTK2 font selection dialogs, e.g. with gvim, but not here in jEdit (I guess in other Java apps it also wouldn't work then, but jEdit is the only Java app I use (since 2 days)).

If you need more info (maybe the X11 font paths, but as other font selection dialogues recognize them, it should be all ok...), tell me so I can paste.

I could live with Monospaced (anti-aliased), but it would be cool to have my usual font.
I hope someone can give me some hints on this.

Inserting ctrl characters into documents.
Submitted by macbsd on Monday, 1 November, 2004 - 20:27
I have a unix shell script, and I need to insert a (ascii 13) into a sed script. I can insert the ^M via some other editor, but if I open the script in jEdit, then it gets ripped out when the file gets saved.

It's like jEdit is doing a dos-to-unix conversion on every save, ripping out all characters on every save. I would expect that if the file type was set to unix, then the "Enter" key would just generate characters, but not modify the rest of the file.

Thanks,

Plugin Manager Problems on jEdit 4.2final
Submitted by Anonymous on Wednesday, 27 October, 2004 - 19:40
I have just downloaded and installed jEdit on a brand new machine. The Plugin Manager does not seem to be able to download the plugin list. It can get a list of 4 mirrors but will not allow you to change from the default. This is not my first time around the park with jEdit but it is my first time with a problem of any kind with the Plugin Manager.

I am not behind a firewall.

Operating System: WindowsXP Home Edition.
Java Version: 1.5

Any help will be greatly appreciated

The XML plugin don't find my DTD
Submitted by Marcogringo on Thursday, 21 October, 2004 - 07:23
Hi, I have a problem with the XML plugin : I can't find how to use it when a dtd (or an XML schema) is associated to a document.
Here is a part doctype of my document "my_tree.xml":
!DOCTYPE root SYSTEM "my_product.dtd" (encapsulate in < and > : sorry I didn't find how to post xml data in the forum)
"my_product.dtd" is in the same directory than "my_tree.xml" (loaded in a buffer of jEdit), but the XML plugin don't look finding it. It give an error for all elements et attributes, like "Element root must be declared". It is like if it doesn't able to find my dtd: it's the same thing if I write anything else for the system ID (dtd name) in "my_tree.xml".
Pleaaaase, I need an answer...
International character input
Submitted by Anonymous on Thursday, 21 October, 2004 - 00:41
Whenever I type the a single quote (') or the double quote (") or a tilde (~) followed by certain letters it auto-corrects it into an accented character:

So:
'a => á
"a => ä
~n => ñ
"u => ü
/c => ¢
etc.

I am not sure if it is something Java is doing or if it is JEdit enabling international character input. This is under Windows XP SP2, JRE 1.5.0, Jedit 4.2. Either way, it makes writing program code a major pain.
