When will the jEdit Launcher be updated for use with Java 9? When one uses the current jEdit Launcher one gets a Window stating that one must use Java 8. When one dismisses this Window, one is taken to the Java Site to download a Java 8 installation. Thru a lot of trial and error I worked out a way to use jEdit on Windows bypassing the jEdit Launcher by editing Windows Shortcuts and creating a Windows CMD file to run jEdit directly, bypassing the Launcher. When can I expect an update? Remember, Java 8 goes extinct in October 2018.
