Summary: Missing catalog file not handled

Initial Comment:
I built the latest version of jEdit from the trunk (4.4pre1). In this build, if you delete the catalog file in the models folder, jEdit will hang on startup (specifically when it says \"run startup scripts\"). I was able to catch and handle in the error in the loadModeCatalog method in jEdit.java with this code.

if(!(new File(\"modes/catalog\")).exists()){
			JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, \"Could not locate catalog file.\" +
					\" jEdit will now exit.\", \"File Missing\", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE); 
			System.exit(0);
}

I\'m sure you\'ll want to handle it differently but I just wanted to bring the error to your attention.
