[Openroad-users] external Editor, continuation on Ians mail

Hi,

Am I still the only one who uses the OpenROAD editor? I find it quicker and like the fact that I can instantly compile the code without saving it first, I find without Intellisense and highlighted syntax it concentrates the mind to code it right first time.

Frank,

  Hello,

  Not sure my reply is appropriate ...

  You can use Textpad :

    a.. Download and licence : http://www.textpad.com/
    b.. Download the syntax coloration here : http://www.textpad.com/add-ons/synn2t.html (search for openroad in the page)

    c.. Create a document class named OpenROAD, with a file filter like : *.e?? 
    d.. Add those variables in your OpenROAD configuration (see http://www.naiua.org/openroad/editortextpad.htm)
    II_W4GL_SYSTEMEDITOR=TRUE 
    II_WINDOWEDIT="C:\Program Files\textpad 4\TextPad.exe" -t"%t" "%f(%l)" 
    II_WINDOWVIEW="C:\Program Files\textpad 4\TextPad.exe" -r -t"%t" "%f"
  The use of an external editor can prevent you from bugs sometimes appear in OpenROAD (in the past) : when code source was too big sometimes OpenROAD did not integrate it. In this case it is sometime useful to have a copy of a *.e?? file (if you see quicly enought you loose your code of course ...) 

  HTH
