Rune

Description:

A text editor implemented in Java Swing

  • Any OS supporting Java 5 or newer can run it:
  • Theme-able, but the default theme is consistent with your operating system
  • Multiple files can be open at the same time in different tabs
  • Start-up time is reasonably fast: about 3 seconds on a modern machine
  • Anti-aliased (smooth) text
  • Nice bundled free fonts for programming
  • Zoom with Ctrl-Up and Ctrl-Down

Not everything works right. For example, only one file can be opened. I'm not sure it this is caused by bugs in the Haiku Java port, or bugs in Rune that can't be seen on other platforms. I will try to look into it when I have time. There are also issues with memory that require some extra parameters on the Java command line. So it is necessary to create a script to start up Rune.

Adapted and packaged for Haiku by Michel Clasquin-Johnson. Tested on Haiku R1/beta 4 in the x86_64 bit variant and OpenJDK. Should run on 32-bit but that has not been tested.

Requires: The latest Java runtime from the official Haiku repositories. At the time of writing, installing openjdk21_default will see you through.
