jEdit is an Open Source programmer's text editor written in Java. It is

|
with Swing 1.1, and also runs under Java 2.

As far as text editors written in Java go, jEdit is one of the best. It has an
|
|
easy to use, intuitive interface, and enough features and flexibility to please

even the most hard-core programmer. A very incomplete list of jEdit's features

|
follows.

|
|
o Bracket highlighting and matching
|
|
o Powerful macro system
|
|
o Auto-expanding abbreviations for the frequiently used strings
|
|
o Powerful search and replace - supports regular expressions and multiple file
|
|
search/replace; Search and replace operations can be recorded in macros
|
|
o Any number of strings and caret positions can be stored for later use in
|
|
so-called registers
|
|
o Rectangular selections for working with column-based files
|
|
o Any number of editor windows can be opened, and each view can be split into
|
|
multiple panes for side-by-side viewing of multiple files
