    mick - 2009-01-25

    I've been looking for an editor to use with GCBASIC under linux. Some have reported that Crimson Editor will work using wine, but I've had no success with that and, besides, I would prefer something that is still supported.

    A nice one to try, if anyone wants to have a go, is geany. It is pretty configurable (but not as good as Crimson IMHO) but it won't let you have colours and indents with *.txt files. I've highjacked the *.d filetype to get it to do what I want - I can modify that to some extent.

    Has anyone else got a favourite editor to try?

      I actually use Gedit in Ubuntu 8.10... just adding an "external tool" with the command:

      /path/to/gcbasic $GEDIT_CURRENT_DOCUMENT_PATH

      Easy and effective... like gcbasic.. :)

      I forgot to say that from Gedit is also possible burn, read, verify, load firmware, etc using piklab-prog, the command-line aplication used in Piklab, only need to have Piklab instaled and create "external tools" in Gedit with:  piklab-prog -arguments $GEDIT_CURRENT_DOCUMENT_PATH

      Or any other programming software you like.

      Greetings.
