Re: jedit 5.6.0 does not run on java11

I would not like to leave this issue in the air but for now the only
thing that made me be able to run jEdit was in fact running the
version 5.5.0.
I had a problem with lots of old plugins but once I eliminated some of
the troublesome ones my jEdit 5.5.0 is running with no problems.
I wish I could give more insights into the matter but has my 5.5.0
version is running with no problems I think I will stick with it.
Thanks for all the support.
Regards,
Pedro
