[GD-General] Development tool (in-house built)

[<Per...@ep...>]

Hi folks,

Not sure wether this topic belongs here in general, or in design....

Looking into the subject of creating design tool for a stratigy-game. The
grapical part is OK, but when it comes to the editor for scripts, I was
wondering if perhaps the best thing was to use an alredy exiting
customizeble editor (I'm thinkin' of makein' an VC look-alike app). Since I
really don't need to reinvent the weel...

Do you know any good free/opensource editors out there applicable for this
task ??

BTW I'm thinkin' also to use QT(by Troll Tech) to make it crossplatform
(linux,fbsd,win), any thoughts on that ??

Regards
Per

our scripts are simply text files, and we assume people have text editors=
 :)

we use QT for our editor (http://www.qubesoft.com/q/studio.php). it
certainly speeds development up, although i believe it's not as customisa=
ble
as might be ideal.

I'm not a regular user, but I've heard some good things about
Scintilla:

http://www.scintilla.org/

It's an open-source cross-platform source-editing component, that some
people have used to build little IDE's for various scripting
languages.
