Title: LuaFX Shell-style interface
Post by: flyingfisch on November 15, 2011, 04:17:22 pm
I am working on a luaFX shell-style interface, kind of like Python's IDLE. Please tell me if you think this is a good idea. I will post screenshots later.

Sorry, I cant read french. :/


The finished version of my parser will be an IDE, where you type a statement and it parses and runs the statement.

Do you also mean like an interface from where you launch Lua games like 83+ shells or 89 kernels?

I am writing it in lua, so that would be kinda silly. It is really gonna be almost exactly like IDLE for lua.

LuaCS is an oncalc Lua editor with syntax highlighting and export/import functions. It is a huge project started by yatto, but it seems that he completly missed Lua advantage. This is why I'm rewritting and debugging it.

It is planed to mix it with oclua. That way it will became a complete IDE.

So what is the difference ?

well, first off, no syntax highighting (luaFX is B&W/grayscale). Secondly, it is written in lua itself.

AH ok, thanks for the info. I thought it was like a program launcher or something, since they're pretty common on some calcs.

Oh, no, not program launcher :P

Like i said, if you know what IDLE is, you know what im trying to accomplish.

LuaCS too.
But okay, I missed "FX". I thought it was a Lua editor for TI-Nspire, like LuaCS
I really have to read more carefully >_>

No, CFX does not support add-ins and therefore cannot support LuaFX. :P

So, you're makin Lua in Lua...
Don't Forget To add and <eof> char at the end of your file.

I wont forget lol


Could you contact Veb and let him know that the new version of luaFX seems to set the contrast when it starts, unlike the other one which kept the same contrast as was set initially. Or maybe allow the user to change contrast.
