Ha! This post just made me smile. First, because I was literally just
about to dig it up in order to get some editor ideas because my usual
one has crapped out on me today and I've given up (for now) trying to
deal with it. Secondly, because that editor is jEdit. Don't get me
wrong--I've been using it for several years now and love it. But ...
It seems that a system update yesterday has killed it. I'm running
Fedora 10 and, when I booted up today, found that jEdit would no
longer start (jEdit itself wasn't updated, as I'll explain). Looking
in .jedit/activity.log I see that it's a socket problem, though that's
about all I've been able to figure out.
So, I tried to upgrade to 4.3pre16 but found that a) there's still no
yum repo for F10 (using jpackage), and b) the jar installer emits a
backtrace and that's about it. Java also was not upgraded yesterday. I
really have no clue what's causing this.
So, because I really can't deal with going back to Bluefish (yeah, I
got the latest package but it's still way to maddening to use), I've
gotta think up something else to install. While I'm comfortable enough
with vim for editing stuff in a terminal, I'm not fanboy enough to use
it for serious everyday coding ;-)
(Meaning, of course, that I don't understand it enough)
I'm with you on Eclipse, NetBeans, etc. I've always hated using them.
PS: to get nice syntax highlighting for Cake in jEdit, copy the
modes/php.xml file from the instal dir to ~/.jedit/modes/ctp.xml and
change this line:
<MODE NAME="php" FILE="php.xml"
FILE_NAME_GLOB="*.{php3,php4,php5,php,phtml}"
FIRST_LINE_GLOB="<?php*" />
to:
<MODE NAME="php" FILE="ctp.xml"
FILE_NAME_GLOB="*.{ctp}"
FIRST_LINE_GLOB="<?php*" />
