Grimrock

Hey guys,

I'm new to LUA scripting (although I have strong roots in other languages) and I was wondering if there was any dedicated LUA editor that would enhance the script writing experience of Grimrock. Currently I'm using Notepad++, an opensource texteditor. It's a good texteditor with some syntax highlighting included but could I be using better? Your thoughts please.

Most of us aren't using anything. Notepad++ is probably a good one to use if you're scripting a lot of longer stuff. I know Lua is on the list of languages you can set it to.

I really like Notepad++(as @Komag). I can't actually remember whether it does good syntax highlighting on Lua files or not, but I use it for any and all text files really. If it doesn't, then a friend pointed me to this Lua Language File ages ago - I've never used it though.

SciTE

Notepad++ or PSPad

Notepad++ -- I happened to have it installed (tried to mod Amnesia a while back, forgot about it).

I actually didn't think of the possibility to set the language, I need to check it the next time I try to do some scripting (now I have to sleep).

I'm pretty sure Notepad++ recognises the file extension and automatically sets the language to LUA when opening a .lua file. I guess I'll continue to write as I am

try to look at this stackoverflow answer maybe you could find some alternatives (I'll stick with notepad++)
