Initial Comment:
Hi,

if I am launching jEdit version 4.2+ with parameter
-background
the jEdit main window will stay overlaided by another
windows for second and more launches.

A typical wrong task is opening the editor by F4 form a
file manager
(Free Commander e.g.) on Windows XP.

The last version, where the described feature was
correct is 4.1.

The jEdit is a very nice job however.

Regards,
Paul

I have a Windows XP SP2, Java version "1.5.0_11", Edit 4.2 and jEdit
4.3pre9 .

There are a steps to invoke the problem:
- run a statement CMD.EXE to open a windows console
- run: start /min javaw -jar "<path>\JEdit.jar" -reuseview a.txt
- write "bla bla" and save it
- switch to CMD console (don't minimalize JEdit]
- run again: start /min javaw -jar "<path>\JEdit.jar" -reuseview a.txt
- jEdit leaves under CMD console

Notes:
- the same behavior have e.g. a Total Commander in case I can edit a
file.
- version JEdit 4.1 works OK.

I tried it with  Norton Commander 2.0/Win and SpeedCommander 11: jEdit 4.2
and jEdit 4.3pre9 end up in the foreground (used a bath with line 'start
/min javaw -jar "<path>\JEdit.jar" -reuseview "%1" ').

But I can see this behavior sometimes when jEdit is already running and is
invoked from another program or batchfile. I guess it's relatetd much more
to Windows and other processes than to jEdit.

You said, jEdit 4.1 has behaved well. Wich operating system did You run
that time? 
And now, perhabs You should try to modify the starting method of jEdit
(batchfile or/and "cmd /c start ...").
