Re: [Pydev-code] Embedding python in a DSL in PyDev

[Fabio Z. <fa...@es...>]

To do this you'd need to go into the Pydev sources -- and you have to
create a parser that can validate the RenPy syntax properly and use it
instead of the Pydev parser. If the structure is logically similar to
the Python structure, it should just provide an AST in the same way
that Pydev provides for Python -- if it's not, the logical structure
might have to be expanded for the additional structures.

Cheers,

Fabio
