Editor/IDE for Lua for Spring

[Pendrokar]

I use regular old notepad

who needs syntax highlighting

Less chance of human error.

You would finish your programs faster by about 30%.

I use Notepad++

If you don't make many mistakes, notepad++ won't really help you much.

just because you have a silly habit of human error doesn't mean some people can't keep track of code in their head without syntax highlighting etc

I use a direct epeen-to-c++ conversion suite.

Eh, syntax errors aren't that hard to notice anyway. The second spring encounters that line you know exactly what the problem is

Now if we had logic highlighting the 30% quote would be more correct! I could definitely use that

For lua?

Doesn't sound like it will help much

so the amount of code he's contributed is directly proportional?

NP++ has it all. It has packaged plugins to do anything I desire.

File comparing, fancy searches, insertions and replacements.

Lets me edit files directly over ftp (it does lack sftp support, thanks to lurker for pointing me to a bridge to solve this problem, named Tunnelier).

It has smart syntax highlighting beyond just a list of words - it will syntax highlight php code inside a syntax highlighted javascript block inside a syntax highlighted html file.

Not sure how many basic text editors have regexp searching but I do use it for lua although not directly spring lua, but other lua projects related to CA.

I still find any programming language to be disappointing without access to a nice autocompletion library and object browser. I'm spoiled by C# and Python. I like to be able to start typing the name of a function and see its signature and comments. I like to be able to just quickly request everything that is documented about a class.
