You should find the answer here.

The startup script mentioned in this earlier post is a BeanShell file that
you place in the "startup" subdirectory of either (1) the directory where
you keep your jEdit settings or (2) the directory in which jEdit is
installed.

Thank you John! I should have checked  the archives first.

No, JCompiler always uses the in-process compiler delivered with the
VM jEdit runs in.

I thought maybe you could type [Ctrl-f] and send focus back to
search-and-replace, but instead you get a second non-modal dialog.  If you
had the view own the dialog on a one-per-view basis, you could take care of
both issues.

You could un-check the "Keep Dialog" option and use F3 to cycle through the 
buffer

This is a common Java bug; closing a modal dialog sets focus back on the
owner frame, not the most recently focused window.

You could avoid it by enabling the 'auto wrap' option in the find dialog
box.

Yes. Hit C+f again and Esc.

But I consider this only a workaround. The focus should be returned to
the Find dialog after the "Continue from beginning" dialog, if the
Find dialog is still visible.

I guess this has changed in 3.2pre6, but I haven't checked yet.

That's a workaround. Is it possible to requestFocus() upon closure of the
dlg?

Ok guys, put them back in your pants.  The great thing about jEdit is we can
all use it regardless of whether one is running Windows, Linux, Solaris,
AIX, or OS/2.  We need to support each other as Java users, not fight over
which platform we are using.  If you want OS wars, go to the Usenet advocacy
groups, there are plenty of OS wars waging there.

I guess it depends on what your needs are. I have very demanding needs.

Well, I guess we can agree to differ ;)  I tried many of the *nix tools when
I came to write my PhD thesis. None of them came close to offering the
functionality I needed. Document creation for me doesn't just mean text
manipulation. I needed integrated diagramming tools, charting, an equation
editor, spreadsheets, automatic reference management, etc, etc.
And that's just the big stuff, when it actually comes to text creation
and manipulation, the facilities offered by Word (drag and drop,
multi-object clipboard, integrated annotating, change management,
in place editing of embedded objects, to name a few) far outclass what
OSS has to offer.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not happy about it. That was just the reality.

> WYSIWYG my ass.

I guess it's like anything. When you really know how to use something you
can get the best out of it. Word isn't just a tool for producing short 2-3
pagers,
it's a programmable environment for document creation and management.
The office suite as a whole doesn't really have any competition when you
need
all of the tools it offers.

Did I mention compatibility with my colleagues was also a requirement ;)

i think the fact that jEdit is a free software project with a wide and
diverse user base is more important than "supporting each other as Java
users". as i've said before, i don't like the fact that Java is Sun's
proprietary mind-stock; it would be cool if we could support this wide
of a user base with entirely free software based on open standards for
interoperability.

as for continuing OS advocacy, i didn't intend to do so. free software
advocacy, on the other hand, i'm sure i will continue to engage in, on
this list and off (but no more in this office tools thread).

I removed this in 3.2 because with some Java versions, the find
dialog would always open behind the jEdit window.
