So, i know, on Windows you can use conf.lua or --console, but how to do something like this on Ubuntu?

love (folder where main.lua is stored) --console 

love2d (folder where main.lua is stored) --console 

io.stdout:setvbuf("no")

There's unfortunately no way to do this. However, there are 2 solutions to still see the console!

1. Running from the terminal.
You can open a terminal in the folder avobe where main.lua is stored, and then do either:

Code: Select all

love (folder where main.lua is stored) --console 

or

Code: Select all

love2d (folder where main.lua is stored) --console 

.
This runs love2d as normal, but the terminal acts as a console like if you were on windows.

QUICK NOTE: I forgot if it was -console or --console, and the code was formatted to look like a comment aswell, don't get confused!

2. Sublime Text 3
Sublime Text (and probably other IDE's aswell) have a built-in console. I know that Sublime Text at least, works fine.
Using an IDE that supports terminal does not require you to have console enabled in conf.lua

https://love2d.org/wiki/Sublime_Text

However, if you're using Sublime Text, it won't print in real time. To fix this, you can add the following code at the top of main.lua or conf.lua:

Code: Select all

io.stdout:setvbuf("no")

Hope that helped!
