smile, its a redirect since the old one had a flaw for some reason, and it was about two versions old, I just redirected to the newer and up to date online version that Jamal put up for folks.


take care,

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

Hi Elf,

Unfortunately I'm getting a "404 not found" error from the features link :( Thanks in advance.

look 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.

Hi,

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? Thanks in advance.

Regards,
LU

Hi,
From EdSharp, press F1 to read the documentation, and when you install it, you can check a box that opens the documentation.

It also has compiler-sensitive code snippets that can be invoked, LaTx
functionality, sophisticated rapid navigation of structured text
documents, built-in accessibility, and everything, I mean everything
on there can be done with hotkeys.  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.

The program supports opening any text file (including those with other extensions like .cs or .java). 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".

Thank you very much for the download link, but, I would like to know,
before
downloading anything, what are the features of that program.
Nobody has a link for such a list ?
