+1 and Terminal (Im working on Mac )

I use:

$ echo 'function love.draw()' > line1
$ echo ' love.graphics.print("Hello world", 200, 200)' > line2
$ echo 'end' > line3
$ cat line1 line2 line3 > main.lua



I use Geany, in fact.

Notepad++.

Also, I sometimes use Sublime Text 2.

Terminal much?

I'm using Notepad++ for now.

You would almost be way more productive if you used the append operator ( >> )

I use a combination of nano and gedit, and have been trying to get myself into geany.

Real programmers only use cat.

You need to put the cat inside the computer, not on it. Or staple it to the screen, like you do when you install Debian.

On topic, the run command "love $(CURRENT_DIRECTORY)" works really well from Notepad++ (whereas "love ." doesn't work, as it refers to the Notepad++ directory). I'd prefer "cmd /c love $(CURRENT_DIRECTORY)" when using t.console in love.conf, but it doesn't bind to that console like it would have done in Linux, and opens a new console instead. Slightly annoying, as "love $(CURRENT_DIRECTORY)" puts the focus on the terminal rather than the game window... But it's no big deal.

Semi on-topic: I think nano gets overlooked a lot as a terminal editor. I've seen programmers be seriously surprised that nano has syntax highlighting (and it's not half bad either). Since I only run Windows on my main computer these days, I've been SSH:ing a lot to my Linux server whenever I need some Linux specific things. In those cases, I've really only used nano and it works pretty well, even for slightly more serious coding.

I'm using (g)Vim since the day I started programming(which was ~3 years ago), and now I can't type with anything else
