- What is the minimum JVM specification RText will run on?
- RText requires J2SE1.4 or greater to run; however, I recommend
whatever the latest, greatest JVM is at the moment for optimal
speed, memory footprint, etc.
- What is the best way to report a bug or request a feature?
- Go to RText's project page at http://sourceforge.net/projects/rtext
and file a bug report or feature request.
- How can I contribute?
- Translate RText! I'm actively seeking out people to translate
RText into any language except for the ones listed in the "Language"
panel of the Options dialog. If you're interested, please
contact me at robert_futrell@sourceforge.net and let me know what
language you'd like to translate RText into (just so two people
don't work on the same translation at the same time). I can point
you to some documentation on the subject and help you get started.
- What plugins are available?
- At the moment, the only plugins available for general use are
those that ship with RText (File System Tree, Source Browser
and Heap Indicator). For translators there is also a plugin
that aids in localizing RText. Once the plugin API is fleshed
out a little, users will be able to write their own plugins to
customize RText.
One plugin that is in the works is a Jad plugin (Jad is a Java
decompiler; see http://www.kpdus.com/jad.html).
