RE: [ jEdit-users ] Plugin issues on Mac OS X

Bing! That fixes the menu problems for LineGuides and Whitespace. The checks
in the menus show up and appear to do the right thing. XInsert showed up on
the first try. Though menus seem to react just a little bit slower...

I'll probably continue to use the menus at the top of the screen (despite
the problems) because that's the way I've been using the Mac for the last 10
years or so...

But at least we seem to have narrowed down the problem to the Mac OS style
menubar... I guess that's why it says 'not recommeneded' ;)
