May 10, 2009 All Java for Mac is downloaded through Apple. There is no alternative. This is sometimes confusing to PC users, since all Java for Microsoft Windows is downloaded from the Sun Website. There is no Java 1.6 for Mac. Unless I am mistaken, the current version os 1.4.2. Whoever is telling you that you need to install Java 1.6 is mistaken.
Java Runtime version 1.6 (aka Java 6) or later is required for jEdit 4.4 and later.
Java Runtime version 1.7 (aka Java 7) or later is required for jEdit 5.2 and later. Java Runtime version 1.8 (aka Java 8) or later is required for jEdit 5.4 and later. Java Runtime version 11 (aka Java 11) or later is required for jEdit 5.6 and later. Before installing jEdit, make sure you have a compatible Java virtual machine; see the compatibility page for details. Option 1 - manual download and install on any OS![]()
