Chris, With all my testing of J7 and GTK, I found I was getting buried in green J's. Here are two more icons I created that help me identify my J7_64 GTK sessions while I am simultaneously running J7_32 GTK. http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/DavidMitchell?action=AttachFiledo=gettarget=edit2.png

[Jbeta] J7 Start Menu Items

2011-01-23 Thread David Mitchell
I discovered that I could not pin the new J7 startup links to the Win7 Start Menu. This seems to be a universal problem in Win7 with .bat files. I found a work-around: I changed the Target of the j64-701gtk link to cmd bin\jgtk.bat from C:\Users\me\j64_j701d\j64-701\bin\jgtk.bat I left the

Perhap we can leave the browse_j_/browse_z_ as it is, and add your proposed browse verb for gtkide. Will that be ok? BTW the fork_jtask_ branch is reducdant because jgtk only supports IFUNIX or IFWIN. The page you referred is not mime types. Each desktop/file manager has its own trick to for

[Jbeta] J7 Install Times

I have noticed that J7 now installs in 10 seconds or less. I am running the installs in a similar Win environment, with virus checking and indexing enable, that resulted in the J6 install taking minutes. So, in my opinion, the warning about long install times in this kind of environment could

the jgtk.bat is not essential. You can create a shortcut to run /path/to/jconsole gtkide and move it to start menu. untested. You need not cd to ~install or any particular directory to run that command. Вск, 23 Янв 2011, David Mitchell писал(а): I discovered that I could not pin the new J7

jgtk uses gtksourceview instead of directly paints on a canvas. If interline spacing can be done, it would be via gtktextview/gtksourceview api. gedit on gnome also use gtksourceview, is it also capable of changing interline spacing? Вск, 23 Янв 2011, Charles Turner писал(а): On Jan 23, 2011, at

I am curious why we could not use the updated browse verb for all J environments available in Windows. It would seem to be useful for all J users in Windows to know when the browse verb is failing. Why use a less reliable version of browse anywhere when a more reliable version is available?

The help message in your proposed browse verb, as you already noted, only applicable to gtkide. The IFUNIX and IFWIN should cover all os supported by J7 so the fork_jtask_ is dead code. mime type was designed for emails, it does not specify programs to open document. Of course any application

I've been using a verb dir, as a cover for 1!:0@, which I now find shadowed by a definition in stdlib.ijs. This new version provides much less convenient output - a simple text matrix rather than the useful boxed output of the older, simpler use of the foreign conjunction. I've been thinking

It is nice to hear jgtk consistent with gedit. Perhaps the the underscore problem is caused by the highlite bar of syntax coloring. gedit also support syntax coloring, does it also have this problem? What if you turn off syntax coloring or edit a file with no syntax class association? Вск, 23 Янв
