The ftp plugin says it stores passwords, and indeed it seems to; but I can't figure out where. I've forgotten the password to an account which I need to access using another app, and if I could figure out where jEdit stores this, I might be able to get access with this other app, since jEdit still seems to have the password (but it's displayed as dots, not characters). The helpfile doesn't say, indeed the ftp plugin help incorrectly says (Chapter 3: Miscellaneous Features) that it doesn't save passwords to disk. -- Mike Maxwell ma...@um...

The physical species Homo may count for nothing, but the existence of mind in some organism on some planet in the universe is surely a fact of fundamental significance. Through conscious beings the universe has generated self-awareness." --Paul Davies |

And now that I think of it, this seems like a bad place to put it. While I did change how it is stored, I didn't change the location of the file, which is now something i regret.
