How to install manually NetRexxDE (manually) as a JEdit PLUGIN

[Thomas.Schneider.Wien]

Hallo David,
   I did now successfully DOWNLOAD NetRexxDE.zip from www.KENAI.com, as
indicated,
but cannot find the documentation what I will have to do to install
NetRexxDE as a PLUGIN
to JEdit.

  1.) Where do I find this documentation?
  2.) May I suggest you put this into README.txt or add a small
info-file in the ZIP what to do, until
you get  NetREXXDE as a 'official' PLUGIN for the JEdit PLUGIN manager.

In my current installation of JEdit, I am always using still NetRexxJE !

Tom.

PS: I'm copying ibm-netRexx here, as probably some other users of
NetRexxDE will ran into the
same problems (?) :-)

Thomas,

There is an 'Installation' section at the bundled documentation and also at
the website:
http://kenai.com/projects/netrexx-misc/pages/NetRexxDE#Installation

This time around NetRexxDE is released as a separate plugin. It wont replace
NetRexxJe by itself. It may be useful to keep the latter installed for a
while, so you have its settings available for reference when filling
NetRexxDE options panel. De-installing at a latter time it's a matter of
just deleting the NetRexxJe.jar file.

Install proces is the same as before. Basically:

- Locate the folder where you have installed NetRexxJe.jar. This would be a
'jars' folder under jEdit home directory or under Settings directory. You
can access both from within jEdit (look under the 'Utilities' menu).

- Replace NetRexxJe.jar with NetRexxDE.jar. Or just add the second if to
keep both installed.

- Activate the plugin in the Plugin Manager if you don't want to close, then
relaunch jEdit.

- That's it. A 'new NetRexxDE' menu entry will appear under 'Plugins' from
where you can open, then dock or whatever, its main window for the first
time.

Cheers,
David

Hello David,
   that *is* exactly the *info I was missing*  :-(     :-)
Thanks a lot.

Will read now for a while all documents & code samples available,

Thanks again a lot for your assistance.
