[»] Compiling cooledit (3.17.8) on SuSE 9.0/AMD64
by Odon Farkas - Aug 9th 2004 02:11:26

I was trying to compile cooledit but configure does not detect Python because it does not check /usr/lib64.
This can be easily fixed, but I also got the problem reported by fyngyrz (AC_CONFIG_FILES). I could compile 3.17.7 previously but it crashes at File/Open (but otherwise works well) with:
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
Segmentation fault
The trace is:
#0 0x0000002a956d3439 in look_gtk_render_fielded_textbox_tidbits (w=0x7e4fd0,

[»] 0install-quick fails under RH9 with jul 26 2004 version, 3-17-8.
by fyngyrz - Jul 28th 2004 16:11:07

Configure runs, says done. Then says type make (though it will do it, not you...) then configure.in:421:error: Makefile is already registered with AC_CONFIG_FILES. Autoconf/status.m4:844: AC_CONFIG_FILES is expanded from... configure.in:421 the top level.

Other errors follow; I think they're cascading though. If you want them, I'll post them too. I'd like to try this - it sounds very nice.

    I had the same error, and I think it's because Makefile appears twice on line 419.

    I changed the line:
    AC_OUTPUT([Makefile rxvt/Makefile widget/Makefile editor/Makefile Makefile intl/Makefile \
    to:
    AC_OUTPUT([Makefile rxvt/Makefile widget/Makefile editor/Makefile intl/Makefile \

    i.e. removing the second reference to the source root directory makefile. After that change, it compiled OK.

      Yes, that was it for me. Thank you very much.

[»] Interface
by amcmr - Dec 11th 2003 04:32:29

This is a professional editor with amazing synthax highlighting. A more standard interface and programming language auto-selection would be great.

[»] Reasonably Nice, needs features
by Kevin Rice - Dec 8th 2001 01:56:48

This is a good code editor, don't get me wrong. But, there's several features I love about UltraEdit (a win32 editor) that I don't see:

- open from / save as from/to FTP site
- configure screen font, print font
- COLUMN SELECT, CUT, AND PASTE!!!!!

Mostly it's the column select I need.

[»] Syntrillium's Cool Edit
by Paul Sheer - Jul 3rd 1999 13:56:32

Syntrillium's Cool Edit is a sound file editor. Because it runs on
a different platform, and because it has a completely different
target market, I see no conflict whatsoever. Further, on their
web page is no (R) or (TM) next to `Cool Edit'. Finally, it is
logistically infeasable for this US based company to sue me in
South Africa. Get real.

[»] One hot editor :)
by cypherpunks - Apr 20th 1999 13:49:26

Cooledit's is the best text editor I found that works under X, period. Iv'e tried using vim, emacs, fte, kfte , kedit, kwrite, gedit, gnotepad+, GXedit, textedit, XEmacs, nedit, pfe (with wine), exit, code warrior (actually some knockoff based on it) , cyggnus sourceware and whole bunch of others.

Cooledit beats them pant's down with it's potent mix of features, usability, extensibility, cost, low resource consumption and plain old coolness :)

If you are looking for an editor, you SHOULD try this one!

[»] great app
by tom - Feb 28th 1999 22:51:52

    Cooledit may well be a great text editor, but it doesnt
    always install:


    The ./configure script runs ok.
    But make ultimately returns:


    make[2]: Entering directory `/home/kevin/cooledit-3.17.15/widget'
    /bin/sh ../libtool --mode=compile --tag=CC gcc -DLOCALEDIR=\"\" -DLIBDIR=\"/usr/local/share/cooledit\" -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I. -I.. -I../intl -g -O2 -c -o coolnext.lo coolnext.c

    coolnext.c:50: error: static declaration of 'run_callbacks' follows non-static declaration
    coollocal.h:52: error: previous declaration of 'run_callbacks' was here

    make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/kevin/cooledit-3.17.15'
    make: *** [all] Error 2
    [kevin@localhost cooledit-3.17.15]$



    Is anybody aware of a solution or an idea to try out.

    Thanks,

    Kevin Wright.

      Minor edit needed in coollocal.h. Need to add "static " to run_callbacks declaration.
