Here are some brief examples of scripts using jEditLauncher. The first two will run under Windows Script Host, which is either installed or available for download for 32-bit Windows operating systems. The next example is written in Perl and requires the Win32::OLE package. The last is written in Python and requires the win32gui and win32com.client extensions.
If Windows Script Host is installed, you can run the first two scripts by typing the name of the file containing the script at a command prompt. In jEdit's Console plugin, you can type cmd /c script_path or wscript script_path.
