Also somtimes i copy codes from the gg code snipits and they dont work....if simple text is the problem is there any mac program that can change scripts that r better?
thx

If your running in X you can also use the develper tools, just don't compile but they will help with some syntax

For Windows just use Tribal IDE. It is a syntax coloring Win32 application that is basically just a text editor with color syntax. It use to be located here http://tribes.barrysworld.net/ide/ Maybe PlanetTribes.com has it? :P

Or use JEdit, it's written in Java and runs on MAC, too... :)

We got TribalIDE on our site, too, if anybody needs it...
cheers, beffy

the problem is not the syntax coloring, but fonctionnalities. Where can i find a good free PC text editor. I want to make 'Search and Replace in files' or 'compare files', for exemple. Any idea ?



JEdit ! this is the solution ! thanx guy :)

Well, Paul's installer is for OS X, but you should be able to install the different parts (Java VM, JEdit and the plugins) individually on older MAC platforms, too...
Try the JEdit website at www.jedit.org...

Nope... Apple in their infinite wisdom decided not to release a Java 2 VM for MacOS 9.

So the inability to run JEdit on MacOS 9 is Apples fault.
