Hi,
the darkness of the bar sure can be changed.
Showing the splash-screen when loading the full jEdit and not showing
it when you open a file from the outside while jEdit is already
running can't be done easily when using the native splash-screen
facility [1].
I guess one could write a first program checking for jEdit presence and 
telling it to load a file WITHOUT splash-screen and if it fails, running
jEdit with splash-screen.
This implies starting the JVM twice so I'd say it is a bit overkill!
I'm open to other ideas...

Regarding the fact that nothing shows on the splash-screen, 
this may be an issue of threading on your platform/PC.
I'm running ArchLinux with java version "1.7.0_55"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.4.7) (ArchLinux build
7.u55_2.4.7-1-x86_64) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.51-b03, mixed
mode) on a multiprocessor system so concurrent calls are very likely 
to be called in parallel. Maybe in your system it's not the case.

I didn't know about the blue corners. I'm sure that's a look and feel
thing, and probably a default color needs to be set or something. I'll
check on it.

Now that this release is out, I need to get in release requests for Common
Controls, Column Ruler, and Subversion. I'll try to find time to do those
this week.

To allow Dale to move the "close" button of the blame component into the
corner.
I don't know anything about colors but I agree it wouldn't be as noticable
if we changed the color.

I can see progress and messages but the progress bar isn't as dark as it
used to be.
The splashscreen is shown in situations where it used to not be, that is
also true. But since it is not always "on top" it doesn't bother me as much
as it would have before Eric Le Lay's change.

Which makes it not really a Patch but a Bug report with more information, that's why I moved it over to the Bugs tracker. :-)

Anyway, I fixed the stuff and now the AppBundle should work fine with an installed Oracle Java and the DMG provides an easy yet convenient installer UI with additional information on how to come around the Gatekeeper blocking jEdit.

Please test and let us know whether it works properly for you now.
