• Predefined abbreviation expansion

"Predefined abbreviation expansion" is a replacement for internal jEdit "Expand Abbreviation" function (available since jEdit-2.3pre1) Note, that if you use older jEdit version (before jEdit-2.3pre1), you need to use older TypeSaver version 1.1.1!

This function acts like jEdit "Block Comment". It places comment at the start of each full or partially selected line. If the entire line was previously commented, applying this function again will uncomment it. Note: comments in the middle of the line are not added/removed. The string used for block commenting can be changed using buffer-local properties (:blockComment=xxx:)

If you want to use "Line comment-uncomment" instead of "Block comment" just redefine the default keyboard shortcut (C+e C+k) from "Block comment" to "TS: Line comment-uncomment".

This is my first attempt to "merge" TypeSaver expand abbreviation functionality with jEdit internal "Expand Abbreviation" function. Instead of maintaining it's own abbreviation set TypeSaver now uses jEdit built-in abbreviations.

What do you need to do to make TypeSaver work? Just assign different keyboard shortcut to "TS: complete predefined abbreviation" command. (<C+e C+s> or <ESCAPE> for example). When you want to add or change some abbreviations - just go to Utilities>Global Options>Abbreviations and change abbreviations in the list. If you want you can use both abbreviation expansion methods simultaneously (TS and jEdit-internal).

What new functionality is added compared to jEdit internal "Expand Abbreviation" function:

• Setting cursor position using "|" symbol
• Creating complex multiline abbreviations using "\n" and "\t" symbols
• Autoindentation of expanded abbreviations
• You can set your abbreviations to "autoclose" various delimiters ('{', '(', '<', '[', ''' or '"').

• Auto-expanding of abbreviations. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think this feature (in current implementation) just make the work with abbreviations more difficult

Version 2.1.3

• TS uses Swing document positions instead of markers.
• Code simplified

Version 2.1.2

• Fixed incompatibility with jEdit-2.5pre2.

Version 2.1.1

• Fixed incompatibility with jEdit-2.4preXXX. (Thanks to Kristian Ovaska)

Version 2.1.0

• Auto-adding of undefined abbreviations is implemented.

Version 2.0.0

• This is my first attempt to "merge" TypeSaver and jEdit internal Expand Abbreviations" functionality.

Version 1.1

• Most of "Predefined abbreviation expansion" was completely rewrited (Thanks to Kristian Ovaska for ideas and programming!). TS version 1.1 gives user a possibility to have additional indentation contol using whitespaces and tabs. This may be useful when creating abbreviatiuons like this one: "/**\n * |\n * \n*/".
• Fixed incompatibility with jEdit 2.2final (since Slava removed GUIUtilities.loadImageIcon() method from jEdit core)
• There are some additions to default set of predefined abbreviations.

Version 1.0

• You can construct multiline abbreviations using "\n"
• You can specify cursor position using "|" symbol
• "Delimiters autoclosing" now can be "finetuned" from an OptionPane
• There is enhanced set of default predefined abbreviations that comes with TypeSaver. Note, that if you are upgrading from pre 1.0 TypeSaver version you will need to delete "typesaver.properties" file from jEdit user settings directory ($HOME/.jedit) to reset abbreviations to their default values.

Version 0.6

• '<', ''' and '"' are added to "Predefined abbreviation expansion" delimiters list
• Various bugs in "Predefined abbreviation expansion" are fixed

Version 0.5

• "Predefined abbreviation expansion" now is able to "autoclose" open brackets

Version 0.4

• Enhanced RegExp in "Line comment-uncomment" (Thanks to Mike Dillon)
• Now users can use regexp metacharacters as comment symbols ("Line comment-uncomment") (Thanks to Mike Dillon)
• Fixed "Predefined abbreviation expansion" incompatibility with Java 1.1 (Thanks to Kevin A. Burton)
• "Complete word" class removed from plugin, because Slava Pestov included it into jEdit.

Version 0.3

• Added TypeSaver Tab in "Plugin Options"
• Users can now modify contents of abbreviations list from "Plugin Options"

Version 0.2

• Added Line comment-uncomment
• Added Word completion

Version 0.1

• Change log started

• Any ideas for enhancement? :)
