[ jEdit-devel ] Question on split window focus control via plugins and macors

[Hoyt,Jeffrey C. <jc...@mi...>]

I am trying to create a plugin that will help with resolving CVS conflicts.  
The plugin splits the pane vertically and shows your version in the left pane 
and the server version on the right hand side.  I'd like to highlight the 
conflict areas so I can automate resolution (e.g., type 'r' to keep the 
server vesion), but I am having difficulties getting the focuses correct.  
How do I get the TextArea of an inactive EditPane, or change which EditPane 
is active?  EditPane.getTextArea() always seems to return the JEditTextArea 
of the active EditPane (the same as View.getTextArea().

Anybody have any pointers?  I can check the code into CVS if anyone want's a 
look and is sure the plugin is worthy ;o)

Thanks,

Jeff
