{{{ Version 4.3
Thanks to Björn "Vampire" Kautler, Marcelo Vanzin, Matthieu Casanova,
Alan Ezust, Eric Berry and Eric Le Lay for contributing to this release.
{{{ Bug Fixes
- Merged rev# 16624 from trunk, to fix printing which was broken by
patch#2876132. (Eric Le Lay)
- Applied patch #2876132 - anonymous instances of JARClassLoader will now
resolve resources like instances associated with a JAR file (fix for Xerces).
The context ClassLoader for jedit server thread is now a JARClassLoader.
(Eric Le Lay)
- Fixed bug #2907139: Upgrading from 4.2final to 4.3pre18 causes freeze at
startup (Shlomy Reinstein)
}}}
{{{ Miscellaneous
- When creating a new file from the VFS Browser, if a clean untitled buffer
already exists but with another path it is now replaced by a new untitled
buffer using the selected path (Matthieu Casanova)
- Applied patch #2887515: Navigate in AboutDialog (contributed by spj).
The name list in the about dialog can be scrolled faster using the up and
down arrow keys, and the scrolling can be stopped using the right and left
arrow keys or the escape key.
- EnhancedButton have its name set to the last part of the action name,
to facilitate unit-tests (e.g. the 'previous' button in the VFSBrowser
has the action 'vfs.browser.previous', so will be named 'previous').
}}}
{{{ API Changes
- Add support for type-specific EditBus message handlers. EditBus handlers
don't need to implement EBComponent anymore; they just need to annotate their
EditBus handler methods with the new "EBHandler" annotation. The methods
should expect a single argument (an instance of any EBMessage type), and the
method will be called whenever a message of a matching type is sent on the
EditBus. Classes that still implement EBComponent will continue to work
exactly like before, even if they include handlers using the new annotation.
(Marcelo Vanzin)
}}}
{{{ Editing
- Improved indenting rules of Python edit mode. (Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
- Reverted a change for jsp mode, which was made on 4.3pre17 to fix a
bug, since it doesn't work any more. (see SF.net bug #846913)

Thanks to Björn "Vampire" Kautler, Shlomy Reinstein, Alan Ezust, Chepel
Matthieu Casanova, Denis Dzenskevich, Dennis Sheil, Jim Lawton and
Suraj Kurapati for contributing to this release.
{{{ Bug Fixes
- When using the quick syntax edition, if the operation is cancelled, do not
send a propertiesChanged event (Matthieu Casanova)
- Fixed bug #2882702 - Right Click menu shows up to the left of the mouse
pointer in a multiple monitor environment.
- Fixed bug #2881152 - Bufferset Order is incorrect after a "save as".
(#2882756 - Shlomy Reinstein)
- Fixed bug #2806043: Token.tokenToString() throws
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException on the END token. (Shlomy Reinstein)
- When switching back from fullscreen mode to normal, check property to decide
whether to show status bar in normal or plain view. (Shlomy Reinstein)
- Fixed restoring of view bounds from perspective.xml for dual-monitor
environments. This was broken by a fix in the previous version for users who
switch from a dual-monitor environment to a single-monitor environment, and
now should be fixed indefinitely. (Shlomy Reinstein)
- Fixed #2819701: DockableWindowManagerImpl causes NullPointerExceptions.
(Shlomy Reinstein)
- Fixed #2817321: Exceptions on startup.
Caused by a backward-incompatibility that was introduced by the BufferSets
feature, of the "split configuration" format in the perspective.xml file. This
incompatibility prevented jEdit from starting up for users who upgrade from
any non-BufferSet version. A workaround for this is to remove perspective.xml,
but then the previous layout is not restored. With this fix, jEdit should
start normally with an old perspective.xml file. (#2817321) (Shlomy Reinstein)
- Fixed #2818261: Rectangular Selection Count wrong. (Shlomy Reinstein)
- Fixed #2823909: action bar not visible in full screen mode. (Shlomy Reinstein)
- Fixed #2825028: Plugins not properly unloaded during exit. (Shlomy Reinstein)
- Fixed #2825203: BufferSets not restored correctly on startup.
(Shlomy Reinstein)
- Fixed the Java based installer not to use an undefined variable
JAVA_HEAP_INIT_SIZE in Unix startup script. (Kazutoshi Satoda)
- Fixed #2818327: Plugin Error Dialog issues - allow copying the text from
the plugin error dialog. (Shlomy Reinstein).
- Fixed #2833822: Selecting "View -> Line numbers" now shows the gutter if it
was not shown before (otherwise, this has no effect).
- # 2838679 - Support Cygwin xsltproc in build.xml for docs generation
(Sebastian Schuberth).
- Minor refactoring of Mode class to allow plugins to determine the mode of a
file without having to necessarily read the first line of the file. This
allows huge performance gains in plugins like TaskList that need to determine
the mode of a large number of files that are not yet opened in jEdit.
(Dale Anson)
- Fixed #2834900: DockingLayoutManager recursion when handling EditBus msgs.
Prevented such recursions by avoiding creation of a dockable if it is already
being created. (Shlomy Reinstein)
- Fixed syntax highlight when a " appear in a javadoc comment in java mode
(#2818095) (Denis Dzenskevich)
- Fixed #2808363 (patch #2827234): fix perl highlighting hanging on some
operators. (Dennis Sheil)
- Applied patch #2842678: Gutter selection problems (Shlomy Reinstein, patch
provided by encorejane).
- Applied patch #2846169: IndentFoldHandler - allow blank lines after start of
fold. (Shlomy Reinstein, patch provided by Suraj Kurapati)
- Applied patch #2844750: line height correction (disappearing underscores),
using OpenJDK (Suraj Kurapati)
}}}
{{{ Miscellaneous
- New Macro - "Text/Compose Tag". (Gordon Hollenbeck # 2644277)
- New action: toggle buffer switcher - toggles visibility of buffer switcher,
and enabled-ness of focus menu item and focuses if enabled. (ezust)
- New (restored?) Actions: dumb "home" and "end": not as smart as smart
home/end - stays on the same line always. (Alan Ezust)
- Smarter Smart-end - uses syntax info to determine end of code (before
start of comment), giving smart-end 4 states instead of the previous 3.
(Gordon Hollenbeck #2646484).
- New options to select the width and the background color of the selection area
in the gutter (which is visible when line numbers are not shown).
- New button in Hypersearch dockable panel to stop an hypersearch
(patch #2842444) (encorejane)
}}}
{{{ API Changes
- Renamed "EditPane.showBufferSwitcher()" to "focusBufferSwitcher", and the
corresponding action that invokes it. (Alan Ezust)
- New method: TextArea.goToEndOfCode() (Gordon Hollenbeck #2646484).
- Removed deprecated TextAreaUpdate EBMessage. Use EditPaneUpdate instead.
(Alan Ezust)
- Moved EditorExiting ebmessage earlier, before the unloading of plugin jars
so plugins can catch it and act appropriately during shutdown. (Alan Ezust)
- Added support for undo-aware plugins:
- A new interface: org.gjt.sp.jedit.buffer.BufferUndoListener
This interface defines a listener that gets notified whenever undo/redo
are performed on a buffer. The listener can be added to / removed from
a buffer using:
JEditBuffer.addBufferUndoListener(BufferUndoListener)
JEditBuffer.removeBufferUndoListener(BufferUndoListener listener)
- New methods in JEditBuffer: getUndoId(), canUndo(), canRedo()
getUndoId() can be used during buffer content changes to find which
changes are included in the same undo operation. The method returns a
different undoId for each undo operation, and all changes included in the
same undo operation get the same undoId. The other two methods return
true if more items exist in the undo/redo list, respectively.
- New method: FoldHandler.getPrecedingFoldLevels - allows a fold handler to
specify fold levels of lines preceding a line whose content has changed, to
support patch #2846169, which makes the fold levels of blank lines depend on
the first non-whitespace-only line following them. (Shlomy Reinstein)

{{{ Editing
- "try" keyword added to erlang edit mode (patch #2769870) (Chepel)
- added assembly-agc (Apollo Guidance Computer) edit mode (patch #2848519)

position was not always correct. In conjunction with this, added checkboxes
in the Status Bar option pane to make the various items in the caret position
display configurable. (Dale Anson, Kazutoshi Satoda).
- Fix for files in buffer switcher not ordered (tracker 2183929). Sorting is
now immediate on changing the preferences in the option dialog (Dale Anson)
- Fix for View->Show Buffer Switcher does not show the buffer switcher (tracker
2179149) (Dale Anson) This menu item is intended to show the buffer switcher

- Folded lines could become invisible if "delete-line" action was used
at a collapsed fold. (SF.net bug #2548764 - Kazutoshi Satoda)

(HOME/Library/jEdit). Old settings are moved to new location unless a custom
location is set through (-settings=foo). (Seph Soliman)
- Page-scrolling changed to CTRL+SHIFT+scroll instead of SHIFT+scroll
due to Java on Mac.
(Seph Soliman)
- Removed redundant TextArea:EditPane map in EditPane.java in favor of a linear
search through parent container linked list. (Alan Ezust)

The context menu of the VFS browser now has a "Properties" menu item that
shows the properties of the selected node(s) in a dialog.

{{{ API Changes
- Removed deprecated org.gjt.sp.jedit.msg.CaretChanging. Use PositionChanging
instead - the former is no longer being used. (Alan Ezust)

textarea, and the StandaloneActionSet now takes an url to the actions.xml
as constructor parameter (patch #2304608) (Dakshinamurthy Karra)
- Added jEdit.openFile(EditPane, ....) methods to explicitely choose an editPane
to open a file (Matthieu Casanova)

- Added org.gjt.sp.jedit.menu.MenuItemTextComparator as the preferred
alternative for deprecated MiscUtilities.MenuItemCompare.
(Eric Berry - SF.net patch #2308329)
- Removed BufferSet#getScope(). The scope of bufferset is a property of
EditPane. Added EditPane#getBufferSetScope() and setBufferSetScope().
Also removed EditPane#setBufferSet(), which was the way to set the
scope of buffer set. (Kazutoshi Satoda)
- Moved access methods for BufferSet instances to be more straightforward.
- jEdit.getBufferSetManager().getGlobalBufferSet()
-> jEdit.getGlobalBufferSet()
- jEdit.getViewBufferSet(view)
-> view.getLocalBufferSet()
- jEdit.getEditPaneBufferSet(editPane) /* this might be unused one */
-> editPane.getBufferSet() /* this is currently used one */
- Removed BufferSetManager#hasListeners() which had always returned true.
- Removed BufferSetManager#clear() which just made inconsistent state.
- Added a new method jEdit.moveBuffer() to explicitly move a buffer in
a BufferSet.
This can be used to replace a hacky call of BufferSet#addBufferAt()
which is used to move the buffer.
- Added OperatingSystem.hasJava16() method and made deprecated
OperatingSystem.hasJava15() and OperatingSystem.hasJava14() since jEdit
requires Java 1.5 at least (Matthieu Casanova)
- Added a new interface for docking framework plugins to react to newly loaded
dockables (fixed bug #2519873). (Shlomy Reinstein)
- Added the API DockingArea.getDockables() to support the Docker plugin.
- Added new constructor to OptionsDialog.OptionsTreeModel that allows setting
the root group of the tree. (Marcelo Vanzin)

- Changed the "HyperSearch_Results_to_Buffer" macro to include the results of
all searches, not just the last one, and also the search matcher of each

Added a new "Buffer_to_HyperSearch_Results" macro that reads a buffer that
was previously created by the "HyperSearch_Results_to_Buffer" macro, and
possibly manipulated manually later, and imports the results from the buffer

- When assigning escape shortcut to close-docking-area, it didn't work in the
hypersearch result panel because the JTree has the focus, and "escape"
keypress is assigned to "hideTip" action by the Swing framework. I removed
this default assignment because nobody care hiding tooltips (#1955140)

{{{ Miscellaneous
- In the auto-indent code, use read-only "CharSequence" instances to avoid
creating new strings (which results in a copy of the original data). This
should reduce a little the memory usage of that code. Also change some other
code that can avoid the user of strings (such as the word completion action).

- New status bar ErrorWidget added to display the 10 last exceptions that
happened in jEdit (Matthieu Casanova)
- Toolbar and context menu can now be restored to default setting

- The BufferHistory is now thread safe (#1808797) (Matthieu Casanova)
- Parsing XML files now uses correct encoding (which is declared in its
source or UTF-8 by default) instead of the system default encoding.
(Kazutoshi Satoda)
NOTE: Related to this fix, some XML files which are saved by older jEdit
may not be correctly loaded. They used the system default encoding and
didn't declare the encoding (meaning they should use UTF-8). recent.xml,
perspective.xml and registers.xml are known (and fixed).
- Changed the encodings of recent.xml, perspective.xml and registers.xml

trying to find an open buffer when trying to parse an URL in the
openFile() method. (Marcelo Vanzin)
- SF Bug #1729313: BeanShell Error on Loading jEdit 4.3pre9
We need to force the default encoding to UTF-8 when running startup scripts,
otherwise jEdit will fail to run the scripts shiped with it. On the flip
side, if the user wants to use a different (non-compatible) encoding that
is not trivially detected (such as anything with a BOM), a buffer-local
property defining the encoding should be provided. (Marcelo Vanzin)
- registers.dtd now allow zero ENTRY element in ENTRIES. It required at
least one ENTRY while jEdit creates zero ENTRY case in registers.xml.
(Kazutoshi Satoda)
- Fix escape handling in the syntax highlighter. The handling of escape rules
is now much more simplified: it's not only a lot less code but it's much
easier to understand what it's actually doing. This fixes the following
bugs: 1812205, 1807549, 1760646 and 1600458 (although the last one is fixed

{{{ Bug Fixes
- NPE in scroll code when deleting some content with no wrap but some
closed folds (#1763932) (Matthieu Casanova)
- If the cached plugin list xml is broken, it is deleted and reloaded
(Matthieu Casanova)
- Fixed a bug when calling a macro during macro recording (#1765738)
(Matthieu Casanova)

happenning in some case (#1775258) (Matthieu Casanova)
- When changing download mirror, the plugin list cache was not refreshed
(Matthieu Casanova)
- Reload/ReloadAll now ignores buffers with the UNTITLED flag set (instead
of NEW_FILE). (#1720572) (Matthieu Casanova)
- SF Bug #1760646: perl colorization
Escape rules for child rule sets were being ignored. Since the perl mode
doesn't define a top-level escape char, escaped sequences inside strings
were not being properly recognized. Fix looks for the contextual escape
rule before trying to delegate to the parent's escape rule. (Marcelo Vanzin)
- Explicit folds are now expanded when deleting the '{' at the fold start
(#1193683) (Matthieu Casanova)
- Folds are now expanded when inserting new line at the fold start,

- Removed hard coded "C:\Program Files" from Java based installer. It now
uses %ProgramFiles% (a builin environment variable) instead.
(SF.net Bug #917669 - Kazutoshi Satoda)
- Changed the default mirror from NONE to switch.
(bug #1757229) (Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
- Fixed the "Evaluate Buffer in BeanShell" macro so that it does what its
description states, that is evaluating the buffer in current state. Before
the macro used the last saved state. Additionally the result of the toString()
method of the return value of the scirpt, if any, is added to the newly
created buffer in a new line. (bug #1554769) (Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
- Fixed inconsistent indentation which happened when adjacent lines both
match with "unindentThisLine" pattern and they should be placed at first
column. (Kazutoshi Satoda)
- Dropping files was broken when using Gnome Nautilus (patch #1795592)

General option pane (bug #1641997) (Matthieu Casanova)
- When saving a buffer, if the encoding is unsupported,
an error dialog appears (Matthieu Casanova)
- A bug when loading a plugin the dependency check had errors :
for example when you have Sidekick, JavaSidekick and another plugin
that requires Sidekick (PHPParser, XML ...)
in your jar folder, all unloaded, try to load the third one,
the dependency check will try to load JavaSidekick instead of
Sidekick (Matthieu Casanova)
- VFSBrowser.filesActivated() - passed proper View to jEdit.openFile()
from FSB open action (Alan Ezust).
- jEdit shell scripts and batch files didn't handle spaces
in filenames (#1649695) (Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
- Macro Single_Space_Buffer was broken (#1525313) (Matthieu Casanova)
- Scrolling up broken after content removing (#1584436) (Matthieu Casanova)
- SF Patch #1663901: Improve performance in TokenMarker.handleRule()
Daniel Hahler reported that jProfiler found some unoptimized code in
TokenMarker.handleRule(). Instead of applying his patch directly, I
implemented another approach and also took care of the other case
of allocating a new string to do a comparison. (Marcelo Vanzin)
- SF Patch #1656225: Disable encoding auto detection which overrides a selection
When reloading a file with a specific encoding or changing the encoding in
the buffer options, disable encoding auto-detection for the buffer.
(Kazutoshi Satoda)
- SF Bug #1664900: Auto-indent breaks if previous line is a single line indent
The "collapse" action used as a hint for the OpenBracketIndentRule needs to
differentiate between the actions being triggered by code in the previous
line or by code in the "previous previous" line. This way, for example, a
"for" declared after an "if" that didn't use brackets will, correctly, not
be indented one level below the if. See the bug for more "graphical"
depictions. (Marcelo Vanzin)
- Some bugfixes and improvements to ExtendedGridLayout.
(Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
- Fixed that files were shown in VFSBrowser in choose directory mode.
(Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
- Saving a buffer to another VFS was not working (some bugs with markers)
(bug #1644479) (Matthieu Casanova)
- SF Bug #1668893: Wrong conversion to UTF-16 (with BOM)
A previous change of mine trying to fix another UTF-16 issue actually
implemented the reverse of what the spec says: UTF-16LE and UTF-16BE don't
have a BOM, while UTF-16 needs a BOM at the start. (Marcelo Vanzin)
- SF Patch #1649033: Correct the focus after choosing the directory to search
Focus the search dialog after choosing the search directory, instead of
focusing the view. (Kazutoshi Satoda)
- Fixed a problem with escape sequences where a delegate has the same as
its parent and so the parents got overridden and was not able to
escape the delegates end sequence. (bug #1630805) (Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
- Correctly send a ViewUpdate.ACTIVATED message when the user closes a view
and focuses the first opened view. (Marcelo Vanzin)
- Fixed deep indent : now the deep indent works with the chars found in
unalignedOpenBrackets property of the edit mode, and the matching
end char is automatically set. (bug #1666815) (Matthieu Casanova)
- Brackets in comments or literals (in terms of token types in edit mode)
are now ignored for indent. (SF.net bugs #747769, #1229283, #1592989)
(Kazutoshi Satoda)
- Encodings option pane rewritten using a JCheckBoxList, fixed the too small
scroll amount and enabled/disabled the buttons where appropriate.

each plugin that use the new plugin home folder (Matthieu Casanova)
- GeneralOptionPane - new checkbox (restore remote files on startup)

the plugin uses the new plugin api (Matthieu Casanova)
- New LayoutManager ExtendedGridLayout added. For further explanations see
its JavaDoc. (Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
- New popup menu in Register dockable panel (Matthieu Casanova)
- Removed the calls to begin- and endCompoundEdit() in macros as
macroinvokations are always automatically embedded inside a compound
edit. (Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
- Refactored the use of hypersearch-results.file-caption and
hypersearch-results.result-caption to only use one property instead of three
depending on the amount of found occurrences. (Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
- SF Patch #1678608: Improve performace in findMatchingBracket
Return earlier if matching bracket is unknown. (Daniel Hahler)
- Added the time in Log._log() so that events and exceptions could easier be
assigned to interactions. (Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
- SF Patch #1469586: Allow setting Mac OS type and creator to be optional
Change to MacOS plugin. (Mike Gorski)
- Some HelpViewer usability fixes. Now only one node is selectable in the TOC,
Enter key opens the selected topic, on topic changing the focus travels to
the JEditorPane and the arrow keys can be used to scroll horizontally and
vertically instead of moving the invisible caret which scrolls only when
the invisible caret hits page boundaries. Additionally the history remembers
the vertical scroll position now. (Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
- Added a new option "List of encoding autodetectors" in Encodings option pane
to extend encoding autodetection with the new EncodingDetector services.
(Kazutoshi Satoda)
- Allow jEdit to autodetect :encoding= properties in the loaded buffer
(only in the 10 first lines) by adding "buffer-local-property" to
the new option "List of encoding autodetectors" in Encodings option pane.
(Matthieu Casanova and Kazutoshi Satoda)
- Improved the error message of encoding errors on saving. It now shows
the first guilty character with column number, line number and the name
of actual encoding. (Kazutoshi Satoda)
- A new action on the popup menu in the Hypersearch dockable panel to redo the
hypersearch (Matthieu Casanova)
- When calling "line-comment" action, if the edit mode doesn't have a line
comment property, the lines are surrounded by range comments
(Matthieu Casanova)
- SF Bug 1723506: Context menu key not functional on Windows
There was no action to show the popup menu. Added one such action, and
bound it to CONTEXT_MENU by default. (Marcelo Vanzin)
- Added a new option "List of fallback encodings" in Encodings option pane
to automate trial-and-error cycle with a known set of encodings to load
a buffer. (Kazutoshi Satoda)
- Glob translation to regexes got a new feature. If you start a glob now
with the sequence "(re)" this prefix is discarded and the remaining
string is interpreted unchanged as regex. If you need a glob starting
with "(re)" you have to escape it and write "\(re)" instead. So now you
can use EVERYWHERE a glob is expected a normal regex instead and use
their full power. (Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
}}}
{{{ Editing
- New Edit Mode: sql-loader (David Moss)
- New edit mode: csv (jaco de groot).
- Make the auto-indent code more friendly to languages where whitespace matters
more than usual, such as Python. A new mode property (ignoreWhitespace) was
added, which, when false, triggers some whitespace-related indent rules. Right
now it's tuned to Python, since I'm not familiar with other languages that
share the same characteristics. This also fixes SF bug #1382388. There are
some cases when some weird behavior still happens, when deep indent is
turned on. (Marcelo Vanzin)
- Applied SF Patch #1663485: perl.xml patch for variables
- Applied SF patch #1667234: clearer comments in certain parts of perl.xml
- Change the way perl "quote operators" are matched. See SF Patch #1659666
for discussion. The fix is twofold: first, add a new "special" value for the
end tag in SPAN_REGEXP, "~[digit]", which tries to find the matching bracket
of the matched reference (if can't find the matching bracket, just use the tag
body as a literal string). Second, add a new rule that highlights everything
as "LITERAL1", used to maintain balanced brackets, and use it to highlight
everything inside a "q" operator. This probably needs more tweaking, i.e.,
supporting quote operators that allow interpolation, and change the other
operators that look like "q" (such as tr). (Marcelo Vanzin)
- Added some support to EL and better css and javascript coloration
in jsp.xml (Matthieu Casanova)
- SF Patch #1666690: No Undo past file save option
Add option to reset the "undos" when a buffer is saved. (Joseph Erickson)
- SF Patch #1676041: "CamelHumps" words
Add option to enable separating camel cased words when selecting with the
keyboard. (Horst Eff)
- New attribute "MATCH_TYPE" that substitutes "EXCLUDE_MATCH" in mode files,
and code to handle it in the ParserRule and TokenMarker classes. This allows
highlighting the matched region with a different type as the rest of the
region the rule applies to; so, for example, it's possible to use
MARK_PREVIOUS on "foobar(" and highlight the function name as "FUNCTION" and
the parenthesis as "OPERATOR". There are two special values for the
attribute: "DEFAULT" is the default type for the current rule set (same
behavior as EXCLUDE_MATCH="TRUE"), and "RULE", the default value, is the same
type as the current rule (same as EXCLUDE_MATCH="FALSE"). This is part 1 of
the fix for SF Bug #1658252. (Marcelo Vanzin)
- New mode for C, and refactored the C++ and Objective-C modes to take
advantage of the new C mode. This is part 2 of the fix for
SF Bug #1658252. (Kazutoshi Satoda and Marcelo Vanzin)
- Added an option to deactivate that rectangular selection mode
is active if Ctrl is pressed. (Björn "Vampire" Kautler)

- Buffer.getMarkersPath(VFS) deprecated and replaced by static method
Buffer.getMarkersPath(VFS,path), see bug #1644479 (Matthieu Casanova)
- Added a new GUIUtilities.showVFSFileDialog() methods that can use a dialog
or a Window as the browser's parent, instead of the view. (Kazutoshi Satoda)
- Added two new builtin service interfaces org.gjt.sp.jedit.io.Encoding
and org.gjt.sp.jedit.io.EncodingDetector. (Kazutoshi Satoda)
- MiscUtilities.isBinary(Reader) is now deprecated in favor of a new
method MiscUtilities.isBinary(InputStream). (Kazutoshi Satoda)
- Added JEditTextArea.showPopupMenu(), which pops up the context menu
at the current caret position.
- For TextArea, userInput('\b') now behaves as backspace(), and
userInput('\u007F') now behaves as delete(). See background of this
change at SF.net patch #1692315. (Kazutoshi Satoda)

When reopening the "recent" files on startup, a buffer might fail to
load (because, e.g., it's on a FTP server and the user canceled the
password dialog). So ignore the buffer if it's null when restoring the
view. (Marcelo Vanzin)
- Fix SF Bug #1590250: Bad EOF handling code in CBzip2InputStream
The code seems to have other error handling problems, but at least
now it doesn't compare a char to -1. It would be interesting to see

- Fix SF Bug #1571752: 'Add Explicit Fold' in PHP mode - wrong comments
Be smarter when inserting explicit folds in mode boundaries by trying
harder to use the comment characters for the mode of the text that
is being wrapped. Also do some tweaking for when to insert new lines
and when not to. (Marcelo Vanzin)
- Fix SF Bug #1594910: Indentation of Javascript embedded in HTML is broken
The fix is more generic than what the bug suggest. The indent rules
were being kept locally by each buffer, and reflected the "top level"
mode's rules. So rules for sections of the buffer that were delegated
to other modes were ignored. The fix keeps the indent rules in the mode
instance, and the buffers retrieve the context-sensitive rules when
applying auto-indentation. (Marcelo Vanzin)

- FR #1599024: add a submenu to the file menu that allows reloading the
current buffer with a specific encoding.
- HASH_CHAR in mode-files is now optional and multicharacter
(Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
- HASH_CHARS got invented for mode-files as alternative to HASH_CHAR,
whereby HASH_CHARS lists possible first characters of the matched
result literally (Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
- Fixed some wrong documentation and added some new
about HASH_CHAR and HASH_CHARS (Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
- SplashScreen change : more step added for progress bar and it tells now
what jEdit is doing (Matthieu Casanova)
- When closing the current buffer, if there is only one buffer, untitled and
not dirty it is not closed (not needed since another one would be created)
(Matthieu Casanova)
- The Files change dialog has now an ignore button to set the
autoreload and autoreloaddialog flags to false (Matthieu Casanova)
- VariableGridLayout, two new capabilities: it can
take minimum and maximum sizes of a Component into account when
distributing free space and you can supply distances to the borders
of the Container. The new capabilites are useable by the two new
constructors. For more information, see the JavaDoc documentation.

- Reload/ReloadAll now ignores buffers with the NEW_FILE flag set. This
was causing IO error messages when the Untitled buffers could not
be reloaded. (Nicholas O'Leary)
- More infos about the socket connection when the plugin manager updates it's
plugin list (Matthieu Casanova)
- Now the multiple selection and rectangular selection flags are saved for each

{{{ API Changes
- Refactored the manually implemented HashSet of LinkedLists to use the
Java Collections HashSet and ArrayList. Therefore the ParserRule.next
and the ParserRuleSet.getRules(char) got deprecated in favor of
ParserRuleSet.getRules(Character) (Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
- Deprecated JEditBuffer.isElectricKey(char).
Added JEditBuffer.isElectricKey(char, int) to replace it.
(Marcelo Vanzin)
- Deprecated some of the ParserRule.createXXX() methods which accepted
only one character HASH_CHAR, while introduced new ones that accept
whole Strings. Additionally new ones for accepting HASH_CHARS got
added. (Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
- SearchDialog.preloadSearchDialog(View) is deprecated, this is
not necessary on our big computers and JVM with JIT (Matthieu Casanova)
- VariableGridLayout has two new constructors to use the new capabilites.
For more information see section Miscellaneous. (Björn "Vampire" Kautler)
- PluginManager.getPluginList() is not public anymore. It was not useful
since the PluginList class cannot be accessed outside of it's package
(Matthieu Casanova)
- MiscUtilities.moveFile(File, File) is deprecated, use
IOUtilities.moveFile(File, File) instead (Matthieu Casanova)
- Plugin API : now the EditPlugin has two new methods :
EditPlugin.getPluginHome() that will returns the path where the plugin
should write it's data (it can return null if you run with nosettings).
It is a folder built like that
jEditSettingsDirectory/plugins/pluginClassName
ex :
~/.jedit/plugins/sidekick.SidekickPlugin
I hope this will help to make some cleanup in the jEdit settings directory
folder (this folder is not created by jEdit, plugin developers must create it
themselves)
The second method is EditPlugin.usePluginHome() that plugin developers should
overload to tell jEdit if they use this new folder. The default is false.
(Matthieu Casanova)
- VFSFile.getIcon() and VFSFile.getDefaultIcon(). The getIcon() method
can be override to use a custom icon for some VFS (Matthieu Casanova)
- Added org.gjt.sp.jedit.msg.PropertiesChanging; an EditBus message that is
sent right before the global options dialog is shown, to allow plugins to
flush any data that might be used by the option panes.
(Marcelo Vanzin)
- OptionsDialog.init(String,String) was made protected (was private).

More activity on my favorite edit mode. :-)
The [^\p{Alpha}\p{Space}] rule at the start of Perl's "y/.../" syntax
was not entirely correct; some other characters, mainly operators like
+, -, etc, and also underscore, are not allowed either. But since the
regexp was still trying to be matched against such strings, it would
have two effects: a very long pause (the "hang"), and strings like
"y_something_something" being highlighted incorrectly. By adding a few
extra characters to that exclusion, things seem to be much better.

^ and $ will only match the start and end of the buffer. (Marcelo Vanzin)
- SF bug 1517395: Wrong character encoding in killring.xml
fix bug in Java 1.5 by saving ASCII control characters as character
entities; since 1.4 doesn't support XML 1.1, if killring.xml has
character entities it will fail (so the bug will still be there
when running on 1.4). (Marcelo Vanzin)
- SF bug 1523261: "Regular expression " and "Ignore case"

(Marcelo Vanzin)
- SF bug 1523117: Add explicit fold in PHP mode inserts wrong comments
The "DEF_CLASS" rule set in the php mode file didn't have any line
or range comments declared in the props section; so the code was now
picking up the porperties for the default rule set, which had the
HTML-style range comment instead of the PHP line comment. This is
probably due to the XML parser change - the old code was probably
propagating some property of another rule set to the DEF_CLASS rule
set, since it used global variables for a bunch of things. So this
might show up in other places, and might need a better fix...

There are also new context menu options for the result tree
that only display in tree view mode when a folder node is selected.
There are options to expand/collapse all child nodes, and another to
exeucte a "New Search From Here", which displays the search dialog
initialized with the path from the selected result tree folder node.

{{{ Bug Fixes
- The following Java code did not indent properly:
if(foo)
{
foo(bar,
baz);
}
- The following Java code did not indent properly:
foo(bar(
<--- should not have two levels of indent here
- The soft wrap state is no longer reset when a buffer is saved. This
was pointless and slowed down the editor.
- Screen line management had an off-by-one error, so in some situations
the vertical scroll bar state would become inconsistent.
- Registers dockable window had a few problems (Nicholas O'Leary).
- Word count would show -1 for an empty buffer (Michael Macnair).
- Fixed corrupted cursor image problem on Mac OS X.
- Complete word popup is now always positioned within the screen bounds.
- The last physical line index was not updated when saving files
sometimes, resulting in exceptions when clicking in the text area.
- If rectangular selection mode was enabled and you clicked beyond the
end of the line in a read-only buffer, jEdit would beep.
- Using 'Delete Lines' with folding could mess up the vertical scroll
bar.
- File system browser's right click menu now contains the "Plugins" menu
(Nicholas O'Leary).
- Fixed file system browser's left arrow key behavior (David Chan).

as buffers specified to open on the command line.
- If windows were docked in the top docking area, the action bar would
display in the wrong place.

{{{ API Changes
- bug 1386702: DockableWindowManager now sends an EditBus message
DockableWindowUpdate.ACTIVATED when a dockable is activated.
And a corresponding DEACTIVATED message when it is deactivated. (Alan Ezust)
- A new EditBus message has been introduced: EditPaneUpdate.CHANGING
for Navigator (or other EBPlugins) to catch caret positions
just before buffers are changed. (Alan ezust)
- A new EditBus message has been introduced: BufferUpdate.CLOSING
for EBPlugins to catch events just before buffers are closed. (Alan Ezust)
- Selecting multiple directories in the file chooser dialog box is now
supported; just pass true as the last parameter (Matthieu Casanova):
GUIUtilities.showVFSFileDialog(view,null,
VFSBrowser.CHOOSE_DIRECTORY_DIALOG,true)
- Now that the text area is independent of the rest of jEdit, various
text area-related APIs that used to take org.gjt.sp.jedit.Buffer
instances now take org.gjt.sp.jedit.buffer.JEditBuffers:
- BufferChangeListener and BufferChangeAdapter are now deprecated. Use
BufferListener instead.
- FoldHandler.getFoldLevel() now takes a JEditBuffer as a parameter.
- VFS.copy() methods added (Matthieu Casanova).
- MiscUtilities.copyStream() and MiscUtilities.closeQuietly() methods

{{{ Version 4.3pre2
Thanks to Bertalan Fodor, Dirk Moebius. Jarek Tuszynski, Joshua Gertzen,
Nicholas O'Leary, and Simon Ruggier for contributing to this release.
{{{ Auto Indent
- The auto indent engine has been rewritten from scratch to provide
more accurate indentation for a variety of languages, including Java,
Common Lisp, and Factor.
- Aligned bracket indent is done as before with "indentOpenBrackets" and
"indentCloseBrackets" properties. Unaligned indent was previously
enabled by setting "lineUpClosingBrackets" to "false". Now, you must
specify "unalignedOpenBrackets" and "unalignedCloseBrackets"
properties.
The upside is that both aligned and unaligned indent can be used in
the same edit mode. For example, in Java source, the following piece
of code is indented correctly:
public void apply(Buffer buffer, int thisLineIndex,
int prevLineIndex, int prevPrevLineIndex,
List indentActions)
{
// ...
}
- The new "unindentThisLine" property, whose value is a regexp, allows
indentation of Java switch/case constructs:
switch(foo) {
case bar:
hello();
default:
yo();
}
- In order to immediately re-indent the line as soon as the case or
default statement is terminated with a :, the "electricKeys" property
is set to a list of characters whose input triggers a re-indent of the
current line.
- The new "unindentNextLines" property, whose value is a regexp, allows
indentation of Factor colon definitions -- in particular, after the ;
everything must be unindented:
: refers? ( to obj -- ? )
f swap [ pick eq? or ] each-slot nip ;
! Indent returns here

- Updated LilyPond syntax highlighting (Bertalan Fodor).
- Rd syntax highlighting (Jarek Tuszynski).
- Updated ASP syntax highlighting (Simon Ruggier).
- Slate (http://slate.tunes.org) syntax highlighting.

{{{ File System Browser
- The file system now lazily retreives file system attributes. For
plugins that use the VFS API, this has important implications; see
the below "API Changes" section. (Joshua Gertzen).
- Previously, file system browser columns would resize to fit all the
attributes of all visible files. Now, this is not possible, so instead
columns can be resized manually and their size is preserved.
}}}
{{{ Miscellaneous
- When an item from the "Paste Previous" or "Paste Deleted" dialog boxes
is inserted, it is moved to the top of the list.
- Pasting now preserves the tall caret.
- New text areas viewing a buffer inherit the fold visibility map from a
previous text area.
- The right-click popup for HyperSearch results nodes has three new
entries:
- Open
- Open in New View
- Open in New Plain View
- Open in New Split
- On Mac OS X, the close box is shown with a different appearance if a
visible buffer has unsaved changes.
- Dropping text into the text area now selects it (Nicholas O'Leary).
- The cursor is hidden when you start typing.
- Renamed 'Delete Line' to 'Delete Lines'; now does the right thing if
more than one line is selected. Same for 'Join Lines' versus
'Join Line'.
- When the search bar loses focus, the currently entered text is added
to the history.
- "Format Paragraph" now preserves the caret position.
}}}
{{{ Bug Fixes
- Fix NullPointerException in file system roots list.
- Search and replace dialog's "Search subdirectories" checkbox did not
have an Alt-key mnemonic.
- Binding actions to numeric keypad keys should now work better.
- Pressing something like A+f l where A+f was a prefix but A+f l was
not bound would insert l into the buffer, which was undesirable.
- The plugin manager did not select a plugin's dependencies when the
plugin was selected for installation.
- Invoking 'Expand Fold' when the fold is expanded would move the caret
to the wrong place.
- Changing the wrap mode didn't update screen line counts, causing
various problems.
- The custom history text field border with the popup widget is back.
- Fixed a memory leak. Token markers were retaining the line segment
they were given to tokenize -- in some cases, this line segment could
hang around for a while, and was huge.
- Fix performance regression when deleting text; too many lines were
being repainted.
- 'Cut Append' and 'Copy Append' commands did not update the Registers
dockable.
- Fix Control key on Mac OS X.
- Changing the font size did not update the vertical scrollbar.
- JSwat plugin did not work when running under Java 5 due to a bug in
jEdit's JARClassLoader (Dirk Moebius).
- Fix some problems with paths that end with multiple file separators.
- Inserting a long line of text did not always scroll horizontally as
required.
- Split panes now have resize weight, ensuring more intuitive behavior
when a split view is resized.
- If autosave kicked in while the 'Close All Buffers' dialog was open,
then the perspective would be saved, and the wrong buffer would be
restored on the next startup.
- Fix an exception from being shown when loading a file with a malformed
.marks file.
- Fix possible ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException when deleting text after
decreasing the number of history elements.
- Double clicking the middle mouse button now pastes twice, instead of
pasting and selecting a word.
}}}
{{{ API Changes
- View.updateTitle() is now public.
- VFS.DirectoryEntry has been deprecated because its interface is not
conductive to lazy initialization. Virtual file systems should now
return instances of org.gjt.sp.jedit.io.VFSFile, and instead of
reading/writing the public fields of that class (they are public but
deprecated for VFS.DirectoryEntry compatibility), you should call the
accessor/mutator methods.
- A new MiscUtilities.pathsEqual() method has been added to check for
equality of path names while ignoring case sensitivity on Windows.

{{{ Search and Replace
- When invoking "Find", "Incremental Search for Word" or "HyperSearch
for Word" actions, if regular expression search is on, any special
characters in the selection are automatically escaped.
- Find dialog box now has fields that accept multi-line input. Pressing
ENTER activates the "Find" button; press C+ENTER to insert lines in

{{{ Miscellaneous
- jEdit no longer runs with Java 2 version 1.3. Java 2 version 1.4 or
1.5 is now required.

now performed at the text area width. This used to be in 4.1, but
got removed in 4.2, and now its back due to popular demand.
- Rename Autosave & Backup option pane to Save & Backup, move some
options from General pane there (Marcelo Vanzin).
- Added Ant target for building a MacOS X .app package (Trevor Harmon).
- Added Register and Marker dockables (Nicholas O'Leary).
- "Rectangular Selection" command now changes the state of the current
selection to match the flag.
- "Select All" preserves current scroll position.
- When closing jEdit, open buffers are not added to the "Recent Files"
list if the "Restore previously open files on startup" option is on.
- View.goToBuffer() will try to find a non-zero height text area if
possible.
- Pressing TAB now preserves the tall caret, if there is one.
- When a directory is reloaded, it is no longer moved to the top of the
file system browser's history list.
- Added View->Splitting->Restore Split action -- it recreates a
split pane configuration as it was before the most recent 'Unsplit'.

- Minor fix for handling of the recent buffer when the current buffer
was closed.
