Hi Elf,Thanks for that. I just wanted to be sure that the features document you mentioned did not contain any additional information to the help documentation. I have now confirmed that both documents are the same :)
Thanks. Regards, LU----- Original Message ----- From: "The Elf" <inthaneelf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

hmmmm, I'll have to look and see what may be wrong, well here is a direct link for the online documentation page:http://EmpowermentZone.com/EdSharp.htm thanks for letting me know elf Moderator, Blind Access Help Owner: Alacorn Computer Enterprises Specialists in customized computers and peripherals - own the might and majesty of a Alacorn! www.alacorncomputer.com proprietor, The Grab Bag, for blind computer users and programmers http://grabbag.alacorncomputer.com----- Original Message ----- From: "LU OGBE" <oluogbe@xxxxxxxxx>To: <programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, October 04, 2010 8:44 PM Subject: Re: EdSharp questionHi Elf,Unfortunately I'm getting a "404 not found" error from the features link :( Thanks in advance.Regards, LU----- Original Message ----- From: "The Elf" <inthaneelf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, October 04, 2010 11:14 PM Subject: Re: EdSharp questionlook a bit deeper friend, there is a sub menu or option in there for designating a compiler, and options for indentation as well.you can also go get the, admittedly older, but still of value features list off my grab bag site (URL under my name) and take a look there and in the help documentation to find out where and how to set this stuff up.elf Moderator, Blind Access Help Owner: Alacorn Computer Enterprises Specialists in customized computers and peripherals - own the might and majesty of a Alacorn! www.alacorncomputer.com proprietor, The Grab Bag, for blind computer users and programmers http://grabbag.alacorncomputer.com----- Original Message ----- From: "LU OGBE" <oluogbe@xxxxxxxxx>To: <programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, October 04, 2010 5:38 AM Subject: Re: EdSharp questionHi,I just downloaded EdSharp yesterday & it seems quite interesting so far. However, how do I configure it to compile java code? or do I just save my java code as a .java file & then run from command line? If I do this, how does it handle indentation?

It's an open source editor written by a visually impaired programmer that caters to the needs of other visually impaired programmers. That, my friend, is really it. Honestly, downloading it and trying it out is the only way to find out for yourself what all it does. Like many open source apps, word of mouth is the way to find out about what it does. I don't think the documentation is accessible separately from the program. Also, it's a free application so, it's not like you are going to find nicely packaged marketing-driven files telling you about how it slices, dices cooks and cleans, mops and sweeps and feeds the dog. All jokes aside, I find myself coming back to it again and again for anything requiring a text editor and manipulating text files of c++, html, javascript and python code. I also use it to open pdf's in an accessible manner. My only gripe with it is that it's so good, I just can't seem to go mainstream because mainstream apps just don't do what I need them to do as a blind programmer. I only wish my other problems were that minimal. Also, please take note, any promotion/positive reviews you will find on this list or anywhere for that matter are done by end users. I don't think I've ever come across a posting from Jamal trying to talk anyone into using his app. He doesn't have to. Don't be scared. Try it. you'll like it.

It will open and convert pdf files, and it can handle rtf files. It has a lot of nice features for programming, including running and/or compiling many types of files right from the editor (assuming you have the compiler installed and set up). There are commands for inserting time and date, marking blocks of text with two keystrokes instead of holding the shift key, for copying or cutting the current line without selecting it, for moving from function to function, for converting to and from indented/braced code (useful for Python programmers), and more. I recommend just downloading it and trying it out. It also has scripts for jfw or window-eyes that allow those readers to speak events better. For example, hitting ctrl-s with the scripts installed will result in jfw saying "save" instead of "control s".
