Dear Users,

I have often encountered problems when importing thy files from
Library using jEdit/Isabelle (Windows). For instance, when
I type

"~~/src/HOL/Library/OptionalSugar"

the output windows gives the error "Bad Theory Name".
It took me a while to find a simple workaround: save
the file and reload it.

This seems to happen in all the latest release candidates,
but I bet is an older issue.

Best!

As far as I can tell this is the standard way up to and including
Isabelle2013-2.

Before getting side-tracked on this second round of a really stable
release, I was actually working towards more smooth file management in
Isabelle/jEdit, but there are remaining problems with its physical buffer
management. The editor uses old-school stateful implementations with
mutable data structures everywhere, and it is hard to work with that
efficiently and reliably.
