Re: [ jEdit-users ] jEdit 4.2pre6 Linux Inconsistencies

[Steve S. <ste...@ho...>]

Hate to butt in on someone else's issue, but this is more or less on topic.

I have noticed that since I got a new machine and installed a fresh copy of 
jEdit a couple months back (pre5 at the time) history data is not being 
saved in any of the drop downs.  This was annoying, but I survived without 
the information and didn't know where to look.  I did just check based on 
your suggestion below and I do not see any references to HistoryModel in the 
activity log in my case, nor do I see any history file (which I seem to 
remember from previous installs).
