love editor

[monolifed]

A barebones editor:
(left)ctrl+s saves
(left)ctrl+r saves and run the file (press escape to go back)
The file is also saved on quit
A console is required to see the errors
Mouse not supported, common keyboard operations supported
Optional code highlighting (lua only)
No bound checks

Its intended use is to edit small code portions within love
For example, I plan to add it to love example navigator:

Yeah, nice, but what is purpose of that editor?
(like, Zerobrane exist or any other lua-compotable editor)

Would you ask the same to anyone posting a game here?

The purpose can be anything from fun to educational.

I've come from notepad to zerobrane and seriously considering going back to notepad.

I think there is room for more editors that are better than notepad but not zerobrane.

How about Android version?

[monolifed]

I added multiline selection. It seems to works but I won't be surprised if it crashes.

I am not making a full text editor.
There will be no support for font styles, color schemes, menus, etc.
This is a simple edit control for love.

Okay then

How about Android version?

I didn't try it on an android device but I checked the documentation.
love.keyboard.setTextInput must be used to enable textinput
Other than that I don't know what might not be working on Android

If you want to run single file love programs.
Writing the code in a real editor, copying and running it on-paste could be more convenient.
