[Bug 371313] Re: freeze when using jedit open remote with sftp

h,

Thank you for the info, I use Jedit to work on a remote shared (using
SFTP/SSH) server on GoDaddy while I simultaneously have open FireFox
versions of the same files--interestingly the Jedit issue causes FF to
become unstable and when I right click a bookmark to open in a new tab,
FF shuts down immediately.

At first I thought it was the JavaScript files I was working with but
I've had Jedit freeze when trying to open CSS, HTML, JS, PHP & INC
files.

BTW: I work from home and my LINUX box is connected directly to my
ISP via a cable modem; so no network to remotely log into the frozen
box means hard shut down when the freeze happens. And I too have just
gone from 8.10 to 9.04 Ubuntu when the bug showed up. So, now I just
don't use Jedit, which is a shame because I really like the sftp app
built into the editor, it saves steps, time and makes me more
productive.

Thanks for getting back to me. Do you think if I went to 4.2 Jedit I
might avoid this bug?
