[ jEdit-users ] Drag & Drop of files no longer working

[Jim B. <jf_...@co...>]

I am using Ubuntu 14.04, jEdit 5.1.0, java 1.8.0_101

In a earlier email I mentioned I could not drag & drop files from the 
spaceFM filemanager to jEdit but I could from Nemo. As of today Nemo no 
longer works either.

By not working I mean that when I drop a file on jEdit it does not open.

I don't know if this list accepts attachments or not. The relevant part 
of the activity log is some 300 lines long, so I will just post the 
first 10 lines and the last 10 line now.  If you need to see the entire 
log I can attach it if possible or put it on paste bin.
