LÖVE

Hello all, i'm currently developing a UDK (Unnofficial Development Kit) for LÖVE.

I plan to implement the usual stuff, like code editing ect; but also automatic library installation and packaging and launching and all that other jazz, is there any interest in a project like this?

I have read about that there is an ide in development, but, nothing wrong with another one

Let me know what you think, i've attached a screenshot of the program in action.

If your code completion becomes better than ZeroBrane (and that's not a very ambitious goal) then I'll switch, and you support live debugging, I'll switch.

I intend to make code completion adaptive and with support for libraries as well. I don't think live-debugging will be something I can do, unless I sneak some code in before the scripts are forwarded to LÖVE and remove it after execution.

EDIT: Just looked at ZeroBane, and by the looks of it, it has it's own library for love, which I can't really do at the moment.

I don't really get all of this, but Zerobrane does not have Löve built in. Debugging works with any Löve binary you provide.

It's no problem to force users to add a line or two at the top of their code, to initiate debugging (although I fail to see why this couldn't be automated).

I think this is a really great idea. I've been looking for an IDE to switch from ZeroBrane!

Any particular reasons to switch? I'm always looking for things to improve, even though improvements don't always come as quickly as I'd like. BTW, what version of ZBS are you currently using? Paul.
