How do I configure jEdit for Scala projects?

Question

I'd like to be able to use jEdit to write, compile and test projects written in Scala. How can I configure it to do so?

Answer 1

I literally just use the jEdit mode (my tweaked version) and leave it at that. All of my compilation, shell and SCM stuff is done in a separate Terminal window. Often times I will use "Project Viewer" to manage things at a project level, but that's just because I'm too lazy to type in a new path every time I have to Cmd+O.

jEdit + Buildr + JavaRebel (for the shell) == an excellent workflow. I don't get the compile-on-save behavior offered by the Scala Plugin, but I can live without that. Compiling Scala on save is tricky anyway due to the complexity of the type system.
