[Jed-users-l] py_check_indentation

John K. Parejko — 2013-05-09T20:15:58

Hello,

When opening a new python file in jed, I would like to run the py_check_indentation() function from the jedmodes version of pymodes.sl. I've got pymodes running (I can toggle between the dfa and normal syntax highlighting, for example), and have this in my .jedrc:

define python_mode_hook ()
{
   py_check_indentation();
}

but I get this error when opening a .py file

py_check_indentation is undefined

during startup. It looks like .jedrc is loaded before pymode.sl is loaded. How do I run a function from pymode in .jedrc?

Thanks,
John

[Jed-users-l] Defining personal sl-files.

Martin Klaiber — 2013-05-09T13:09:34

Hi all!

As mentioned in another mail some time ago, I have redefined some
functions for latex-mode and put them into my .jedrc. But I want to
have them in a separate file now, because my .jedrc is getting a bit
messy. So I put them in $HOME/jed/mylatex.sl. Like that:

   define my_tex_insert_quote ()
   {
      ...
   }

   more functions ...

   define latex_mode_hook ()
   {
      ...
   }

In .jedrc I wrote:

   variable Jed_Home_Library = "/home/martinkl/jed";
   set_jed_library_path (Jed_Home_Library + "," + get_jed_library_path ());

   add_mode_for_extension ("mylatex", "tex");

Unfortunately mylatex.sl is either not found or not loaded. I assume
my use of add_mode_for_extension is wrong. Could someone tell me, how
to do it right?

BTW: Do I have to add a "require ()" or "autoload ()" at the beginning
of mylatex.sl to get the predefined latex-functions from latex.sl? If
so, what is the right syntax to use?

TIA, Martin

[Jed-users-l] How to redefine a function?

Martin Klaiber — 2013-04-26T20:37:01

Hi,

when inserting a quote in LaTeX-Mode two single backticks are inserted
before or two ticks after a word. As I use csquotes, I want to modify
it, so it inserts "\enquote{" before or "}" after it (without the
quotation marks of course).

To do so, I have changed this part of tex_insert_quote() of texcom.sl:

   if (is_substr("[({\t ", char(c)))
     {
        insert_char ('`');
        if (LAST_CHAR == '"') insert_char ('`');
     }
   else
     {
        insert_char ('\'');
        if (LAST_CHAR == '"') insert_char ('\'');
     }

to that:

   if (is_substr("[({\t ", char(c)))
     {
        insert ("\\enquote{");
     }
   else
     {
        insert_char ('}');
     }
     

Well, it works as I wished for - but how can I make this change
permanent now, without changing the original texcom.sl? I suppose I
have to redefine tex_insert_quote() somewhere in my home-dir but I do
not know how and where.   

Thank you for your help!
Martin

[Jed-users-l] () vs pop

Ulli Horlacher — 2013-04-19T06:36:59

When I do slang coding and have functions where I do not need the return
value I have the two possibilities:

() = function(...);

pop(function(...));

Is one better than the other?

[Jed-users-l] TODO

frank — 2013-04-18T17:04:59

The TODO list for the current jed *64 has shrunk to one minor item 
while a couple of years ago other items were prominent, e.g.:

-   soft wrap
-   encoding switch (say between UTF-8 and ANSI)

which currently are not on the list but still pending.

Besides, when you browse jed's C code there are a number of FIXME here 
and there.

[Jed-users-l] jed -h

Ulli Horlacher — 2013-04-18T06:52:19

I am missing a "jed -h" usage message, like most UNIX programs have.

For example:

$ vi -h

usage: vim [arguments] [file ..]       edit specified file(s)
   or: vim [arguments] -               read text from stdin
   or: vim [arguments] -t tag          edit file where tag is defined
   or: vim [arguments] -q [errorfile]  edit file with first error

Arguments:
   --                   Only file names after this
   -v                   Vi mode (like "vi")
   -e                   Ex mode (like "ex")
(...)


One have to read defaults.sl to know which jed command line options exist.

[Jed-users-l] editing symbolic links

Ulli Horlacher — 2013-04-10T06:18:26

When I edit a file via a symbolic link, I would like to see in jed the
real file name.

Example:

framstag< at >fex: ll /client/bin/xx
lrwxrwxrwx root     root     - 2013-03-07 14:59:59 /client/bin/xx -> /sw/share/fstools-0.0/bin/xx

framstag< at >fex: ll /sw/share/fstools-0.0/bin/xx
lrwxrwxrwx framstag users    - 2008-10-15 18:29:53 /sw/share/fstools-0.0/bin/xx -> fexsend

framstag< at >fex: jed /client/bin/xx

jed shows me in the status line a buffer named xx and not fexsend which is
real edited. Also ^X^B shows me:

  Flags     umask   Buffer Name             Dir/File
                                                  
----------- 0000    "*scratch*"             /sw/share/fstools-0.0/bin/
-----U---A- 0000    "xx"                    /sw/share/fstools-0.0/bin/xx

Here I would like to see:

  Flags     umask   Buffer Name             Dir/File
                                                  
----------- 0000    "*scratch*"             /sw/share/fstools-0.0/bin/
-----U---A- 0000    "fexsend"               /sw/share/fstools-

[Jed-users-l] extended backup (versioning)?

Ulli Horlacher — 2013-04-03T16:47:18

JED's backup files~ saved me often :-)

Being an old VMS hacker, I really like it's integrated versioning. Example:

file.txt;1
file.txt;2
file.txt;3

(the bigger the number, the older the file)

How about extending JED's backup file concept to a similar versioning
system for UNIX? I think of this kind of naming:

file.txt
file.txt~1
file.txt~2
file.txt~3

When one saves a new file.txt then JED should rename the old files:

file.txt~3 --> file.txt~4
file.txt~2 --> file.txt~3
file.txt~1 --> file.txt~2
file.txt   --> file.txt~1


A JED config variable would define the maximum number of backup versions.

[Jed-users-l] syntax highlighting issue

Andrew Lannan — 2013-03-25T16:32:21

Hi,

I have been teaching myself s-lang and using jed over the last week or so.
One issue I have noticed is that the text covered by this line :

set_color("normal", $1, $2);

in my color scheme is always highlighted (or bold or bright, not sure which
is the correct term) regardless of the color setting. The the other
settings seem to react normally (ie. changing the "comment" setting from
"brightcyan" to "cyan" makes the font thinner). I am using Jed in a linux
console (aterm). I'm not sure if this is the default behavior, but am
wondering if it is possible to change.

Thanks in advance for any help,

Andy

[Jed-users-l] Restore position of cursor when opening file

Martin Klaiber — 2013-03-23T15:01:23

Hello all,

does JED have a function to remember the last cursor position before
the file was closed? Especially in large files I would like to have
the cursor immediately at the last editing-position when re-opening
the file.

It would be even nicer if JED could remember the last edited file of a
set of files when loading these files (e.g. with "jed *.tex"). Does JED
have such functionality, e.g. as a form of "project management"?

TIA, Martin

[Jed-users-l] S-Lang mode tab indent oddity?

J.B. Nicholson-Owens — 2013-01-10T01:37:09

I am editing S-Lang in S-Lang mode and I'm using Jed version 0.99.19U on 
x86_64 GNU/Linux (Debian).

In S-Lang mode, the following code formats in a way I did not expect and 
I'm not sure if my experience indicates that my expectations are 
unusual, the indenting is off, or something else is going on I'm unaware of.

Consider the following code:

#v+
define foo (n)
{
     switch (n)
     { case (0):
          do_something ();
        do_another_thing ();
        .
        .
     }
}
#v-

When I hit tab to auto-indent do_something(); Jed indents to a different 
place than Jed indents do_another_thing(); and all of the subsequent 
lines in that case block (indicated by periods).

Why is that?
What can I do to get uniform tab indentation here?

Thanks for your help.

[Jed-users-l] True Type fonts with xjed

Carlos R. Mafra — 2012-11-09T12:42:07

Hi,

Is it possible to use a True Type font like "Open Source Pro" with xjed?

With xterm I can use the -fa switch to select the font, so I can use
jed instead of xjed with the font I want, but I was wondering if xjed
can use a True Type font too.

My first impression is that it's not possible (xjed has -fn but no -fa),
but the man page says one should look at xterm.c to see more options.
After looking there I couldn't find a -fa option, but since the file
has some xft functionality I thought I'd better ask here.

[Jed-users-l] Directory dependent settings

Peter Bengtsson — 2012-09-24T23:31:47

Some projects I work on require 4 spaces for javascript and some require 2 spaces.  
I can edit ~/.jedrc every time by changing `variable C_INDENT = 2||4;` but that's quite clumsy. 
It would be better if I could put a jed rc file in the root directories of the various projects. Is that possible?

[Jed-users-l] TAB Keycode

Facundo Bianco — 2012-09-14T21:41:29

Dear list,

Hi, I just trying to get TAB keycode for reuse it with another
func. I used "^I" and "\t" but didn't work. Basically, it's:

    setkey("insert_spaces(4)", "\t");

(I know I can use "TAB_DEFAULT = 4;" but I got wrong indents when
open it on other editors.)

Thanks in advance! Best,

[Jed-users-l] zz xx

Ulli Horlacher — 2012-09-13T18:31:27

The following is only slightly related to jed but hopefully useful for some 
of you.

I have written a UNIX based server software (*) which allows users of any
operating system to personally exchange files of ANY size:

http://fex.rus.uni-stuttgart.de/

Now to the jed related point :-)

Like most of you, my working is very text (command line) centric:
I use a lot UNIX pipes in bash, mutt, jed and other programs.
Because it is not easy to pipe data directly between running instances of
these programms I first have written a generic clipboard: zz

http://fex.rus.uni-stuttgart.de/fstools/zz.html

It works a little bit like the X mouse buffer, but without X and mouse :-)

One can write (any) data to the zz clipboard and extract this data any
times - until it is overwritten.

I have written two small slang functions and bound them to keys, with I
can write a selection or the whole jed buffer to the zz clipboard or
import the zz clipboard.

zz is just a small shell script and works only within the same account.

[Jed-users-l] Invalid character class?

Mike McClain — 2012-08-22T02:46:13

Howdy,
    I'm trying to get skip_word and bskip_word to go to any
non-white char like (){}[]% these as well as a-zA-Z0-9 but keep
getting errors and can't find the rules for properly defining the 
word to pass to define_word().

private variable non_white = "-A-Za-z0-9~!< at >#$%^&*()_+=}{\]\[:';|\\\?><,./" + "\"";
define_word(non_white);

Gives this error when skip_word executed:
    Invalid character class?

So can you exlain or point me to the explanation?

Thanks,
Mike

[Jed-users-l] menu_append_item

Mike McClain — 2012-08-22T03:21:30

Howdy,
    Using this statement on the bash command line I created the file
'~/.jed/jed_func.lst':
    egrep -n '^(public |private )?define ' /usr/share/jed/lib/*.sl | 
        cut -c26- > .jed/jed_func.lst
This jed routine shows me the definition:
define see_src ()
{   variable source_index = "/home/mike/.jed/jed_func.lst";
    variable source_path = "/usr/share/jed/lib/";

    %   get a function name
    variable func = read_mini("Function:", Null_String, Null_String);
    !if (strlen (func)) return;

    %   surround w/ ' ' for more acurate search
    func = strcat( " ", func, "[ (]" );

    %   find where it's defined
    !if( read_file( source_index ) )
    {   flush("see_src: Failed to read " + source_index);
        return;
    }
    %if( search_search_function (func) < 0 )
    !if (re_fsearch (func))
    {   flush( func + ": not found" );
        return;
    }
    variable str = line_as_string();
    erase_buffer ();    

%   kill_buffer requires an extra RET I don't want but erase_buffer
%   is zero

[Jed-users-l] .jedrc again

Mike McClain — 2012-08-12T04:23:25

Howdy,
    In order to simplify .jedrc I split out the functions to 
~/.jed/myfuncs.sl and the key assignments to ~/.jed/mykeys.sl.
I put this in .jedrc:

variable Jed_Home_Library = "/home/mike/.jed";
set_jed_library_path (Jed_Home_Library + "," + get_jed_library_path ());

% () = evalfile ("myfuncs");
% () = evalfile ("mykeys");
require ("myfuncs");
require ("mykeys");

If I put the above inside 'if (BATCH == 0) { ... }' the functions and key
assignments don't get loaded if I put outside the 'if...' they do.

If I put 'if (BATCH == 0) { ... }' around the key assignments or function 
definitions in mykeys.sl or myfuncs.sl I get this error: 
'Function nesting is illegal'

If my key assignments and functions are outside the 'if (BATCH == 0) { ... }'
I get no errors and as far as I can tell everything works as I expect.

Before I removed the key assignments and functions I had 11 set_color()
statements that were executed but are now not executed.

Suggestions/explanations will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

[Jed-users-l] python mode paragraph reflow

John K. Parejko — 2012-08-08T00:38:32

Hello,

I'm wondering if anyone has a way to get the ESC-q paragraph reflowing in python mode to recognize blockquotes and reflow the text within the triple quotes, but not including the quotes in the new paragraph. Sorry if this is unclear: I'm not sure of the exact terminology for what the command does.

John
