This guy started a whole blog about jEdit!
Until I came across this on Addictomatic, I had no idea that it was possible to write macros for it in Javascript. I’m looking forward to more macros, tips and tutorials on writing my own jEdit plugins from this blog.
One of my daily reads, Lifehacker, did a reader poll recently on the best text editors… I have to say I was pretty much incensed that jEdit wasn’t even in the running!
I’d been considering eventually writing a post to extol the many virtues of this free, open source, cross-platform and feature packed programmer’s text editor, but when I saw that it was snubbed in the LH poll, I was sort of inspired to post something in defense of it.
