Can not download plugins for jEdit (help!!)

2006-11-08 Thread BillJosephson
Hi all. I am trying to use jEdit, but can't seem to download
any plugins. I go to Plugin Manager, and select Download
options. I update the mirro and can see lots of servers.
I select the first (plugin central default) and say apply.
In the Update dialogues bottom window, I see a msg saying
"Dowloading plugin list from jedit.plugins.org but after
a couple seconds it disappears. Inveitably when I select
Console and the click install, it give me "An I/0 error
occurred (Connection refused: connect)

If anyone knows why i can't connect, in info about it would be
a big help.

Thanks in advance.

Woo hoo!  It worked!  Now of course it was a dumb question to begin
with.

May I ask another quetion?  I don't want to mess with lots of plugins
at this point. What are the minimum plugins to get a typical looking
IDE with a code window and output window and that lets me set
breakpoints and step through code?

Thanks a lot Ant, I appreciate your help.
