Script editor?
by John Vanderbeck · in Torque Game Engine · 04/16/2004 (4:21 pm) · 18 replies
Can anyone suggest a good text editor on Linux for editing CS scrpit files? One that will do syntax highlighting, or can be set up to do it, and has good project management? Something akin to Crimson Editor on Windows?

In Game Script Editor
not sure how far it has evolved lately, but was looking good when it was submitted.

Last time I tried it, the project management seemed sorely lacking. Not your plugin, but JEdit itself.

Really? there is the projectviewer plugin which is distributed with TIDE also, which has everything I expect from a project viewer... or what exactly do you mean with "management"? some more advanced stuff? if so, what specifically?

Hmm, well maybe I missed that. The main thing I look for is how well I can organize my files. I like the way DevStudio lets you organize files. Arbitrary folders and sub folders, with files in each. Crimson Edit does the same thing. I'll give JEdit another try and see if maybe I was just missing something.

You can manage multiple projects, specify file types, search in projects, etc. etc.

"TIDEDebug will be added to the JEdit GUI by default"
I installed everything, and it is all working except I don't have the TIDEDebug toolbar. It never appeared. How can I turn it on?

Now to mess around a bit and see how this whole thing works. I wish it would highlight variables.

Nevermind. I managed to "rebuild" it so to speak by simply adding new buttons to the standard toolbar from the TIDEEdit commands. My icons aren't the same as there were not good ones for the step functions, but oh well.Now to mess around a bit and see how this whole thing works. I wish it would highlight variables.

see sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=366186
for details and how to get the updated TIDE plugins working...

Hm, no idea what you mean with Quote:The usual reason for that is that you are using the JEdit 4.2 pre version together with the TIDE plugins for the stable 4.1 major release (and TIDEDebug doesnt work then since they've changed the plugin API with the upcoming 4.2 release)

Is Tribal IDE available on Linux? I didn't think it was.

I love JEdit, and am very grateful Stephan and Paul have made this plug-in. JEdit is WAY more customizable than the Tribal IDE.

Emacs in java-mode with font lock enabled isn't too bad

Does the java mode deal with TorqueScript better than C mode does?

You need to have a recent JDK/JRE installed though ...
