When I tried to create a simple Java file called, Test.java, using
this, this is what happened:

Raven:~ untz$ open -a Jedit.app Test.java
2005-06-07 23:06:08.742 open[292] No such file: /Users/untz/Test.java
Raven:~ untz$

This did work when I typed:

open -a Jedit.app

but I want to mimic gvim's functionality -- I want it to create the
filename.java when I try this...

Is there anyway to put this command line invocation into a shell
script named jedit or
map it to an executable named jedit on OS X Tiger? I am a dummy when
it comes to
shell scripts, so if someone can outline the solution, I'd be very
grateful!

With thanks!

Unnsse
