Anyone interested, I have made a Step.RC editor. Does Syntax coloring, keeps track of variables, has a simple Code completion window, and even recognizes a few moduels and their commands.

I started code in it to render the theme to a preview window, but it became almost impossible to do every module.. anyone interested reply to this as i dont have a place to put it up.

here is a link i just setup for it. http://www.geocities.com/fubecer/SharpEdit.zip (Right click and do Save-As to download)
Be kind, as I have just finished coding all this

Oh and most likly you will need the .NET framework installed as it is writen in C# :D

It works if you right-click and choose "Save target as...".

hmm the joys of Geocites.. right-click to save it.. heh

So what do you think of it so far?

I'm interested in this (I'm a code newbie who fancies learning, so I need all the help I can get LOL ;D) but your site seems to be down. Maybe need more bandwith there... :D

Edit: Oh, I'm an effing idiot. Sorry. I'll right click on it now (I didn't read it properly and thought it was a link to the site, not a direct download.)

Perfect job, exept for the minor bug when you open a file (parsing file problem), it seems to work perfectly.
You are great. (I reported more acurately sooner, but my comment was not submitted, I don't know why, if you want a more detailed report, I can email it to you).
You had a wonderful idea :))))))

Would anyone be interested in step.rc syntax highlighting for Vim?

Posted by member 10508 on 2003-05-21 15:50:51 link

Einshem: email me the error and i'll take a look.
Parsing problems in the Step.RC file itself?

Update: my email address is now correct.. the old one didnt exist before

isn't there already a syntax highlighter for Vim?

It seems to think the litestep dir is in c:\apps\litestep when its c:\litestep thus is dosn't find the modules in the log part I guess you hard coded it. Still nice though

Posted by member 10508 on 2003-05-22 13:32:46 link

Man, I knew i was forgeting to do something with the settings. Thanks Jezz. I fixed, you just have to put the path to litestep in the config.ini file. Sorry about that.

I up'ed the new file: for everyone who doesnt want to rightclick http://www.geocities.com/fubecer/index.htm

and a direct link (right click) http://www.geocities.com/fubecer/SharpEdit.zip

Vim does have syntax highlighting support, but I don't know if anyone has done anything specifically for step.rc. If there is, could someone send me a link?

Posted by member 110 on 2003-05-22 21:34:35 link

I cant even get the new version to run gives me an error

Posted by member 333 on 2003-05-23 02:57:13 link

I know Vim has syntax highlighting, but I'm also pretty sure I remembered seeing a step.rc highlighter for it. Try to search the LS mail list. (link is probably in the links section...)

Big woops. Drag and droping files into a Zip archive isnt a good idea. That seems to be what the errors are they you are getting. Files not being in the right place.. I fixed it up.

Or for those of you who dont want to d/l it again. jus tmove the Config folder and the EXE and INI file into the BIN folder.. overwriting everything, and that should fix it

again.. woops.. sorry all
