Hi,
Press Control + Shift + F5. A list will open. Select Java. That is the default 
compiler configuration for Java. If you need to change where the path is to 
match your Java compiler, press Alt + Shift + M, then press Enter on the button 
that says Main. An ini file opens. Search for the word compilers in brackets. 
Look for Java. Change accordingly. I don't totally understand the syntax of 
those lines, so I copy one that is close to what I want and go from there.

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.
