Hello!

I'm wondering if there is any good IDE for programming lua? Currently I'm working in notepad++, but it would be nice if there is something with more lua-specific features like syntax error detection or even some kind of intelisense?

notepad++: language: l: lua

It's still basic text editor, just with syntax highlighting.

I suggest looking at the features of Notepad++ a little closer. Theres all that you need within this program. Take a look.

EDIT: Also this

There is a few
1: My CC Function Import (When it's released)
2: ScriTE (Lua only editor, it doesn't debug but it helps with simple basic lua syntax)
3: Plain-old Notepad++ With lua language enabled.

I have already looked at NP++ a lot, but I was unable to find anything else than syntax highlighting. I of course have lua language chosen all the time.

Any more hint? />

That's the N++ lua syntax edit.. Still needing to upload.

I'm writing a Lua/CC editor specifically for CC in CC. http://www.computerc...he-in-game-ide/

At some point I plan to add auto-complete for Lua and CC functions.

It's still only syntax coloring. Or am I missing something?

Thanks, but I'm looking for a out of game editor. I already saw your editor and I must say that I like it. But I don't think it's possible to make an editor in game that can even match regular notepad (mainly due to inability to select text with a mouse).

You're right that nothing can beat out of game editors solely based on the fact that CC doesn't support mouse control.
Having said that, my editor will also be adding text selection with shift+arrow keys and blinking text (for sure) and allow Ctrl+C for copying (if Minecraft and CC support this OS-interaction).

The closest thing I've seen relevant to your interest is this CC Lua IDE being developed:

But it's far from done and missing a lot of stuff from notepad++

[paulclinger]

I've been developing a Lua IDE that includes syntax highlighting, auto-complete, remote debugging, and other features. The project page (http://studio.zerobrane.com/) includes screenshots (http://studio.zerobr...creenshots.html) and demos/tutorials showing it in action (http://studio.zerobr.../tutorials.html). Works on Windows, OSX, and Linux.

No I told him earlier that I had the editor, just not published yet. I "updated" that post with the new one with the release of the N++ Add-on.

[Cranium]

I'm just kidding, I'm glad you released it. I'm gonna try it out later tonight when I get to my home computer.

[machinesmith]

Why was Sublime Text never mentioned?

It's not an IDE but has pretty much every feature of an IDE.

urm... isn't a necro of a thread that's been dead for more than 6 months against the rules?
whatever... I don't see what's wrong with default N++, so what if you don't get a little bit of help...

[H4X0RZ]

Whats about Light Table? Yea, it just has highlighting but it's in alpha

[ETHANATOR360]

take a look at this http://www.minecraft...-computercraft/
