Re: IDE for Lua and LOVE?

thanks, but I don't understand.

Sublime Text creates this love.sublime-build file:

Code: Select all

build make
lineNumberRegex ^(...*?):([0-9]*):?([0-9]*)
showWhenFinished true
workingDir $FileDir
how is it that it has to be to work?

I change "make" with "love" and that fires löve when I build, but it doesn't execute the file.

Do you have the dot at the end?
When I write def I mean function.

*Facepalm*
I assumed you kept the rest of the file intact. I guess I should have specified.
Help us help you: attach a .love.

For those using SublimeText2, I'm currently working on a package for Love2D development. Just the basics to begin with: A build system, syntax highlighting, and library auto-completion. Will start a thread when it goes to alpha.

Just hearing that makes me so excited. I've been looking everywhere for a way to set up a hotkey to run my current love folder, best I came up with was a right-click to on the folder in the side bar to run it, but that's tedious (rightclick->open with->LOVE).

For those interested, this is put in Side Bar.sublimesettings

Make sure to change the path to work with your install.

Code: Select all

			{
				"caption": "LÖVE",
				"id": "side-bar-files-open-with-love",

				"command": "side_bar_files_open_with",
				"args": {
									"paths": [],
									"application": "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\LOVE\\love.exe",
									"extensions":"" //anything
								}
			},

I'm too enjoying Sublime. Mostly because it's simple, fast, have Lua (and all other stuff syntax) have smart word wrap code. I only would like to have a snippets sidebar.

If you at least add the remain LOVE syntax highlighting and library auto-completion would be great. Thank you. :)
