Breaking the Silence

It's been well over a year since my last entry, and a number of months since I updated the site at all. When I realized how long it'd been since I even uploaded anything, I resolved to at least upload jEdit stuff I've done in the past couple months and am now mostly up-to-date with that. I won't bother trying to play catch-up on the past 15 months.

• I tore apart the Tags plugin and put it back together with support for VFS's. As I do all my work at work over SFTP, this is something I've wanted for a long time. I plan to add support for different types of searches next -- for example, partial, case-insensitive, regex, etc... and to decrease memory consumption for tag files opened over VFS's.
• I've done a couple minor MoinMoin plugin releases.
• I've changed the Accents plugin so it's not enabled by default. I've gotten totally sick of seeing posts to the http://community.jedit.org/, #jedit on irc.freenode.net, and mailing lists that "jEdit is broken", when people have just installed Accents it's doing exactly what it advertises it does.
• I've begun work on a new jEdit Launcher, for Windows. However, I'm having a hell of a time getting motivated to finish it up. It still needs support for "-wait" and other new params, a GUI for settings, etc... but the total lack of interest and feedback I got was pretty discouraging. I guess it doesn't help that I've been busy with work, some contract work, and moving. I'll probably get back on it in a bit.
• I've got some new macros to upload, but that's not going to happen today.
