[ jEdit-devel ] jEdit minimize/restore in Windows

[Andrew B. <and...@ya...>]

Hello all,

You know how jEdit minimizes and then restores its
window when you startup a second instance?  It does
this to bring itself to the top of the Windows
Desktop.

It would be better if jEdit just came to the top of
the Windows Desktop without the minimize/restore.

I have noticed in the latest preview source code
(4.2pre2 as of the time of this writing) that jEdit
will keep the miminze/restore as an option, and give
up on trying to get the jEdit window to the top of the
Windows Desktop.

I have proposed a solution to this issue and sent
the code Slava.  Please take a look and try running it
for yourself.  You can find the code and binaries in
the zip archive at the URL below.

Included in the archive are detailed descriptions of
the problem as well as the solution.

To run the included jedit.jar file you need to copy it
and the OperaingSystem.dll file to your jEdit
installation directoy.  And then run jEdit. (twice)

Cheers,

Andy
