jEdit - Black Hedgehog Edition

This post will be about my faworite editor and my configuration of it.
I have been using jEdit – Programmer’s Text Editor for 1,5 years now. It has been my main editor and IDE for Ruby development for 1 year (NetBeans 6.0 is now the best Ruby IDE for me). I still use jEdit for other non ruby related programing tasks. For example during my studies I use it for writing Prolog and CLIPS code.
It strength lies in it’s extensibility so I have tweaked it constantly. I decided to publish the outcome of this tweaking. I’m a visual things freak so my build comes with a nicer look and feel than the standard. Have a look:

The Java Swing look and feel I used is nimrodlf
The jEdit version is 4.3pre12.
It includes many plugins, macros etc.
I wrote a commando (a script witch describes jEdit how to run a file in the built-in console) file for CLIPS and Prolog so it’s there too.
When You don’t need any of the included plugins I would recommend to disable the unneeded (unselect them in Plugins>Plugin Manager). It will make it consume less RAM and work faster. jEdit is generally very light weight for it’s powers, so it’s very good for machines where you can’t run this little monsters IDE’s consuming 0.5 GB memory like NetBeans or Elipse.
You can download it here: jEdit Black Hedgehog Edition
It is ready to run. Unzip. Execute run.sh or run.bat and edit ;)
The requirement’s are Java JRE 6 installed on your OS (can be Linux or Windows to use the start scripts, a start script for Mac can be easily written (please send me a copy if you write one, so I can include it in the next version)).
It can be copied on a pendrive and ran from there.
I hope this config will be usefully.
When you have any suggestions I appreciate them ;).
