one-page scroll is fine I guess. Line by line is only slow when reaching the end of page, and jedit has to scroll.<br />
I'll have to hunt down the responsible. But since I'm very comfortable with vim, it really doesn't pay off for me to spend that much time debugging Jedit...</p>A better jedit edit mode for R - Romain Francoisurn:md5:d9a0ba5fe8f2921efd6c3a88a7323c4f2009-03-16T16:54:15+01:00Romain Francois<p>Hi Jose,</p>
<p>I though you might comment here.</p>
<p>There is hardly any painting done when you are using text files, see the edit mode for text (nothing there to slow things up):</p>
<p><MODE><br />
<RULES><br />
<TERMINATE AT_CHAR="0" /><br />
</RULES><br />
</MODE></p>
<p>So if it is slow with text files, you are not going to get it faster with any other mode, what about moving one page at a time instead of one line at a time, is that better ?</p>

I appreciate your efforts, since I was the one who complained about R-jedit not being as fast as I was used to.</p>
<p>However, the new syntax file, while faster, may not change the overall picture.</p>
<p>I opened a small text file (no highlight at all), and pressing down arrow to the botton of the screen makes it really slow to paint the new lines (scroll). Happens with mouse wheel too. It might be some silly setting (i.e. highlighting cursor row or something).</p>
<p>Is this the case for you too?<br />
Thanks</p>
