Thanks. Do you know the syntax highlighting for the love2d itself? I found this minor mode a while back: https://github.com/ejmr/love-minor-mode. You can install it from MELPA, just enter love-minor-mode. Emacs protip: Whenever you're looking for a feature in emacs, try Googling `emacs (feature) mo...

I just use compile mode (M-x compile), and enter love . for the command. Then, in order to run your project, you can use M-x recompile or bind a key command to it in your .emacs.

This is cool... but it would be even cooler if it used coroutines! For example: local wapi = require "webapi" function love.update(dt) wapi.update() end wapi.do(function() body, headers, code = wapi.request({ method = "GET", url = "http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1...

This is a Lua library written in C++ to expose the functionality of libnoise to Lua programs. It can be used with game engines like LÖVE, and probably Corona as well, or just with normal Lua or LuaJIT. libnoise is an incredibly powerful C++ library for creating and manipulating Perlin Noise, which c...

leftpad, rightpad, luarocks, breaking the internet While hilarious, let me just set the record straight that string.format is what you want to use for your string padding. The format codes are a little weird at first and I always have to look them up myself: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printf_for...

Here's a nice function that turns any value except for threads, functions, and (probably) userdata into Lua and human-readable strings: [...] s = s .. string.rep(indent, depth + 1) .. "[" .. stostring(k) .. "]" .. " = " .. stostring(v, depth + 1) .. ",\n" Wha...
