Getting pretty upset. Need help now.

I need a freaking text editor that works. I’ve tried lua edit, and text mate and you can’t save files as an LUA in that one. So I need a text editor that i can write my code, and then save it to launch in the corona simulator. I’m getting pretty upset that there isn’t a good one.

So I need somebody to help me now. Thank you! [import]uid: 19768 topic_id: 6482 reply_id: 306482[/import]

I’ve also tried Apple’s XCode and it won’t launch or anything. It’s so annoying. [import]uid: 19768 topic_id: 6482 reply_id: 22420[/import]

I use TextWrangler and suggest you take a look at that one. That said, TextMate most assuredly does save Lua files since lots of people use that, so you are probably just using it wrong. Similarly, if XCode is not launching then you should look up what’s going on. [import]uid: 12108 topic_id: 6482 reply_id: 22422[/import]

Nevermind. I’m using notepad++ and then putting it on a flash drive and moving it over. For some reason the windows version of the corona simulator would only show it up as a white screen and wouldn’t properly show it up as the images that I wanted it to. Pretty annoying and weird. Got extremely frustrating. [import]uid: 19768 topic_id: 6482 reply_id: 22428[/import]

TextWrangler is my choice right now. It’s free and the fold selection is still one of my fave functions in it. Keeps things tidy.

Instead of putting it on a flash drive, you can pickup a router and create a network between your PC and Mac. You can even pickup a USB null cable so you can have a direct connection. [import]uid: 8045 topic_id: 6482 reply_id: 22478[/import]

I am using textmate with the lua bundle from the third party tools section of the website and could not be happier, works like a charm. [import]uid: 14451 topic_id: 6482 reply_id: 22524[/import]
