Hi, all. I'm new to the forums and for the most part to UE. My intro Java course at one university preferred UE for working with java programming. I started another course tonight that prefers to use TextPad.
I prefer to use UE, for whatever reason but one difference between the two programs is keeping me from this. Working with java files in Textpad allows you to compile and run VERY quickly by using hotkeys. It's "control + 1" to compile and "control + 2" to run. In UE, I have always pressed F9 to get the DOS command window and typed in the command if it wasn't already there (and if it was, I still had to select it from the dropdown menu).
I was playing with the configs and looking through the forum but could not find any such function in UE. The only thing I can think of is that this might be a macro you set up (if you can't tell, I don't know anything about macros)? Could someone point me in the right direction if this is even possible. I would like to keep using UE but the speed at which I can compile and run is important in the class I'm taking because it is very fast paced.
Thank you in advance for your help.
