What editor do you use for OpenLaszlo coding?

Question

I'm new to developing in OpenLaszlo, and have tried Eclipse (hoping for decent code completion), but found it far too heavy for my tastes. fell back to using Textmate, but the bundle for OpenLaszlo is terribly out of date.

Any suggestions? or should I just roll up my sleeves and write a new bundle for Textmate?

Answer 1

I personally use SpketIDE as an Eclipse plugin. It has some code completion, good syntax highlighting.

Answer 2

We used Visual Studio. And we used it just as a great XML editor. I also used Notepad2 because it is very lightweight and has syntax highlighting.

Answer 3

I've been using Notepad++ with the XML language chosen (since Open Laszlo is basically just XML and javascript). Simple, but effective and free.

Answer 4

I use VIM for this. The VIM mode that ships with OpenLaszlo recognizes both the XML tags and the embedded JavaScript. Of course, if you're not already a VIM user, it's a big project to dive in.

Answer 5

I wouldn't have added it otherwise, but since its arch-enemy VI(m) was mentioned:

Emacs

is worth listing. :)

Without knowing much about OL, I am pretty sure one of gazillions of modes it has provides some level of support for your editing needs.
