OSX - Alternative to Torsion?

by Septien · in General Discussion · 06/05/2009 (7:23 pm) · 4 replies

Hello everyone.

First of all, let me say this community is just plain awesome. I have been experimenting with the TGB trial, and since i will be developing on mac osx i have came across this doubt: what do you guys use as replacement for torsion? i checked jedit but was wondering if im missing some essential stuff (stuff = software).

My main objective is programming some 2d games for iPhone with iTGB, so i would prefer any solution that does not involve a pc with torsion + final stage of development on mac.

Thanks in advance (once again, this community rocks!)

I've been using TextMate for a few years now. It doesn't have the debugging options like Torsion, and it's not free, but it's a great editor for the Mac.

I use BBEdit and a language module I made for it.

I just used Smultron. Will investigate JEdit+TIDE.

Adding a vote for TextMate mentioned by Rubes. Amazing editor and lots and lots of power available for tweaking and extending things to one's own liking.

Actually, I would have a hard time deciding whether I favor Torsion or TM for TorqueScript hacking.
