Title: Editor / IDE... What's your choice
Post by: CrazyCat on March 04, 2012, 04:30:07 PM
Hi there !

I sometimes work on modules for anope, and I'm a real beginner in C. I often use nano (via ssh) or crimsoneditor (remote edit), but have you a better software you use to develop modules ? My main computer (the most used) is with Windows 7.

Thanks.

Regards,
CrazyCat

I have MS vs2010 and CodeBlocks...I like CodeBlocks as it's cross platform, I can use it on windows and nix.

Most of the editors listed have snytax hilighting, which nano doens't do by default. There is a way to do and I'm sure if you google it, you'll find it ;)

NotePad++ was my editor of choice when I used Windows and most of the modules I have on the site were written in or at least edited a time or two in NotePad++. MS vc201x seems to take forever to start. I can pull up the file, edit minor things, save and close a file in NotePad++ faster than MS's IDE loads.  :o

I use SciTE for editing most of the time and then just compile from the command line (and sometimes inside of SciTE itself), although I use Visual Studio at work, but that's more because of being tied down to that.  And I'll admit to Visual Studio to not being bad, but it could use some improvements still.

I like the Midnight Commanders built-in editor "mcedit" (cooledit).
It supports utf8, syntax highlighting, macros, ispell, auto intending and much more . :-)

Done a long time before :) Nano is my default editor for small corrections in tcl, php, html, perl or C :)

Bluefish Editor found at http://bluefish.openoffice.nl/index.html is a very very decent multi-platform editor for operating systems..
Linux, FreeBSD, MacOS-X, Windows, OpenBSD and Solaris.

I have trialled it of late and prefer it to Notepad++ greatly. and like Notepad++ .. its free :)

I use KDE's Kate on linux and Sublime on windows, in the terminal I mainly use nano for quick, small edits or maybe vim if it's bigger than what I want to do in nano.

Honestly Eclipse for almost everything that I can, and then Microsoft Visual Studio for the rest of the things that won't work nicely on Eclipse.

Im with Jan on this one.
I code in PHP nonstop hours on end every day and I used Notepad++ along with its FTP Feature.
If you're on Windows and intend to test code on a Linux machine you can easily use the FTP Plugin on N++ to edit files and have them push to the server then use PuTTy to compile the code. EASY PEASY!

Otherwise I'd use Eclipse or Intellij. Depends on your preference.

Thanks,
