Script editor recommendation

by geek1A4 · in Torque Game Engine · 11/22/2002 (11:06 pm) · 9 replies

I am new and was wondering if anyone could recommend a good script editor. I will be using it for Torque mainly. I tried the Tribal IDE mentioned int the Toque beginners guide, but it doesn't work. Thanks in advance for the help.

    My personal preference is textpad.

    Its got excellent find/replace tools, line numbering, syntex colouring and document tabs. It minimizes to tray and it also supports macros (for those times you wanna comment 69 lines at once)

    I've got a little fed-up of TribalIDE. When I was at the IGC offices I found out that the guys there use JEdit which for those who don't know is a multi-platform Java-based Open-Source editor.

    When I got back I downloaded it and I've not turned back since. It's excellent for all sorts of things, including Torque Scripting.

    It's always personal choice but I like it.

    This resource takes you through setting jEdit up for Torque.
