I just discovered LÖVE yesterday (on Valentine's Day ), and I really like it, especially since it uses Lua. I was browsing the forums, and I noticed that while people love LÖVE, they kept talking about how it's not as powerful as it could be (for example, it's slow in some cases). It seems like the program's just young. So, I wondered what was planned for LÖVE in the future. Faster interpreter/parser (whichever of those words work - I'm not a programmer by any means)? An editor? Anything else?
I know this is the engine for me, so I hope this project lasts. Thanks!

What would such an editor entail?
Saving directly into love files and the like. Could be done easier with a NP++ plugin.

That is possible on linux (at least on Ubuntu), I noticed a few days ago that there's an option in the right-click-menu to mount a .zip/.love as a HDD.
BTW, for windows users I remember that WinRAR also had the option to open files from a .zip and modify them, asking to put the modified file in the .zip after saving. (just like linux file-roller)

Would be nice to have the list of files at the side of the editor though, like Code::Blocks and such.

Oh, I was just throwing that out there. I personally don't think it needs an editor.
