Looking for a programming environment for Lua.

LUA Glider FTW.  Custom templates are sweet.   :ph34r:

I just got onboard with Sublime Text 3, and so far in one day of use, I can say I love it.

Being a long time VI guy, I missed the control in LuaGlider. ST3 is perfect.

My needs:

  • Fast (LuaGlider has been super slow lately)
  • Dark color schemes
  • VI bindings
  • Easy build process
  • File tree view
  • Easy navigation shortcuts

It’s 70$, but well worth it.

Just discovered another great editor for free: Eddie. It’s not well known, but it’s surprisingly fast and powerful. It’s perfect for those who don’t want to spend $70 on ST(2/3), but still want a great editor.

It’s also got the key feature that, in my opinion, decides whether a text editor is even worth thinking of - a file tree. I cannot cope with editors that only let you open single files. In Eddie, you get a separate window that you can use.
 

There are some things missing (an easy way to create themes, like ST has theme files instead of color buttons; a gutter with line numbers, rather than a current line bar at the top; code folding), but overall, it’s a pretty nice editor.
