StarwarsKid StarwarsKid Seasoned Scripter Registered: 2005-06-15 Posts: 506 Loc: Oregon, USA	I have a quick question for the regulars... What is your favorite KiXtart editor? I'm using PSPad and am pretty happy with it. I also downloaded KiXtarter, but haven't used it as much as PSPad. _________________________ let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance- Proverbs 1:5

Les Les KiX Master Registered: 2001-06-11 Posts: 12734 Loc: fortfrances.on.ca	Ja, I do spark up ASE for the BIG stuff, but nothing beats the speed of opening Notepad and it is on every PC I ever use. _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more.

Shawn Shawn Administrator Registered: 1999-08-13 Posts: 8611	Thats what I like about notepad - never get flustard working on other windows boxes - its always the same olde notepad and it always works. I'm sure there's a clever anology to why we settle for the "common demoninator" editor - but I can't think of one.

Yeah, notepad is good for about 10 lines or less, then your just being hard headed. For more on Editors please take a look here. Yeah ASE is a pretty good editor too. http://www.kixtart.org/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=137850

Jochen Jochen KiX Supporter Registered: 2000-03-17 Posts: 6380 Loc: Stuttgart, Germany	Any editor that supports syntax highlighting. Easy to spot mismatching Quotation which was the most common cause for my scritps to fail I prefer UltraEdit as well as Howard _________________________

It_took_my_meds It_took_my_meds Hey THIS is FUN Registered: 2003-05-07 Posts: 273 Loc: Sydney, Australia	ASE is definitely the best in my opinion. I like to distribute my programs as executables that aren't reliant on utilities or script engines that have to be provided separately. I do wish however they would provide the capability to have syntax highlighting that takes into account the whole script and not each individual line on its own. It makes it difficult in some cases to spot the kind errors that Jochen talks of.

Richard H. Richard H. Administrator Registered: 2000-01-24 Posts: 4946 Loc: Leatherhead, Surrey, UK	I use Vim for all program / script / and text file editing. I use this because it is ported to every operating system that I program on, so I get a common editor. It also supports every language I program in, as well as recognising just about every config file that I have to deal with - don't underestimate the usefulness of syntax highlighting in config files. It's without a doubt the best programmers editor I've ever used, but it has a high learning curve because of all the features. This means it may not be suitable for starters, especially of you're only going to edit simple scripts.

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	notepad. I tried kixtarter ones, too many bugs. tried ASE many times, some bugs and way too heavy. notepad is the only editor that is simple and always there and always delivers. _________________________ ! download KiXnet

jtokach jtokach Seasoned Scripter Registered: 2001-11-15 Posts: 513 Loc: PA, USA	Started with ConTEXT, moved to PSPad about 6 months ago b/c ConTEXT development is dead. I like PSPad a lot, but we'll probably be buying UltraEdit shortly. _________________________ -Jim ...the sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.
