Hi Makarius,

I just realised what could be one potential source for people referring
to Isabelle/jEdit as "jEdit": the title of the window reads "jEdit -
<filename>" and shows the jEdit icon. It might be an easy fix to change
the title to "Isabelle/jEdit" and to replace the icon with Isabelle's.

Cheers,

Christoph

Good idea. I would also suggest the title to read something like :
"Isabelle/jEdit 2013-2", so that the* version is also clearly*
visible.

Good observation. Changing the default title of some jEdit "view" was
indeed very easy, which I have done in
https://bitbucket.org/isabelle_project/isabelle-release/commits/6a35bc1ee210

Then I became more ambitious to polish the application icons and titles on
all platforms, so it converged to what was on Mac OS X already: the main
identification is the distribution name, e.g. "Isabelle2013-2" and icons
are mostly that of Isabelle -- hopefully now smooth and properly scaled on
all OS versions in the portfolio (as of Isabelle2013-2-RC3).

jEdit as the underlying text editor pops up its own identity and branding
occasionally, so users should get some idea about this Jekyll & Hyde
situation. The Isabelle/jEdit manual provides further clues about what
"jEdit" is (with links to its fine manuals) and what the additions of
"Isabelle/jEdit" actually are. This is practically relevant to find out
about the full potential of the combination, and to discuss problems and
limitations in the proper department.
