Too bad Komodo Edit is such a disappointment.
I'm not in a position to spend $300 on it right now.

Try the full version of Komodo. It understands tt files by default. It's been 
great to me the past few years. I can't imagine working in a heavy 
perl/catalyst environment without it.

OK, y'all have convinced me to try Eclipse next.
I installed it on Windows x64, along with Amateras.  Setting the association to 
tt and tt2 gives me some html tag highlighting, but I can't find any settings 
for adjusting it, or any instructions for Ameratas at all other than that it 
"has many features".  So, how do you turn on TT syntax support?

Sorry, Amateras does not have TT syntax support, just html as you
saidmaybe you should try Ben's plugin which he mentioned in his
reply yesterday.

As is the case with vi(m), emacs revolves around the concept that
removing your hands from the home row on the keyboard is bad for
productivity (touch-typists can do things much faster with a keyboard
than with a mouse) and also hampers your ability to edit code remotely
in several situations (like debugging code on a headless web server or
recovering your screwed X session). If you need an editor that favors
mice and GUIs, try Padre.

I wrote my own eclipse editor plugin for TT files:

I didn't know that there was an existing one (Amateras) that supported TT.

Emacs also has a set of extensions written by jrockway that facilitate

One reason why I'm not fully using Vim for all my needs as an editor is the 
fact it does not display Bidirectional text (e.g: mixed Latin and Arabic or in 
my case mixed Latin and Hebrew) in a Bidirectional way (even though it handles 
the Hebrew and Arabic Unicode glyphs fine). This is not a big issue with most 
code out there (whether Perl or otherwise), but is a major issue with Hebrew 
emails, works of fiction, blog entries or comments, notes, MediaWiki entries, 
etc. For that I've been using either KDE's Kate or katepart, the Mozilla 
built-in text editor which has a decent support for Bidi and similar editors 
like that and there are some specialised Unicode editors (and relatively 
primitive by Vim's or even Kate's standards such as 
http://projects.arabeyes.org/project.php?proj=Katoob or http://www.yudit.org/ 
). 

If you don't know a language whose glyph system is written from right to left, 
consider your ignorance a bliss - :-D - and furthermore some Vim and BiDi 
users are happy with the fact it displays text consistently only in one 
direction (either L->R or R->L).

I should also note that I've worked on some custom formats to facilitate 
editing text primarily in Hebrew:

http://www.shlomifish.org/open-source/projects/XML-Grammar/Fiction/

While having XML, I've also written a parser for two custom well-formed plain 
text-but-XML-based formats, which I nicknamed Fiction-Text and Screenplay-
Text. The parser is a highly-Moosey spaghetti code that was used to replace 
something written in the now (in)famous Parse-RecDescent which may have been 
even worse. I now hope to convert it to Parser-MGC ( 
http://search.cpan.org/dist/Parser-MGC/ ) , but hope that its author will 
document it a bit better, and this will require a rewrite and incrementally 
breaking tests.

I've looked into projects providing similar functionality such as 
http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/ and http://celtx.com/ , but I have found 
some technical or philosophical issues with them (that listing them is out of 
the scope of this E-mail.).

Yeah the free version is disappointing and I would never recommend that version 
to anyone. There are plenty of other editors that are free with more features. 
However the full version should be fully customizable. It even supports xpi 
plugins so you can customize every aspect of the editor. Even without xpi 
plugins you can customize almost everything in the editor. Any specific 
customization you are looking to do?

The only downside I have noticed is in certian situations its really
slow on linux boxes when switching tabs when many tabs are open but
that problem has slowly been getting better with the newer releases.

I've noticed it's mostly slow on startup, but reasonable after that.

RE: [Catalyst] What text editor to use?

[Mesdaq, Ali]

I have been using Komodo for years and its the best Perl editor I have found. 
Not just perl it understands everything I have thrown at it and has a lot of 
perl specific features. It also integrates into various source control 
management systems like svn, p4, git, etc. The only thing is that its not free 
but to me its well worth the money. Oh yeah and its cross platform. Aside from 
having to pay for the full version of the editor I cant think of a reason not 
to use it from a technical or feature perspective. 

List of a few features I find most useful
- Visual Source code browser with list of funtions in heirarchy in all open 
files
- Embedded perl/python/php/ruby interperter
- Debug perl/python/php/ruby with break points and full inspection of variables
- Remote debugging of perl applications
- Regex Toolkit for quick regex development or quick extraction/cleanup of data
- Import various JavaScript libraries like jquery and get auto complete and 
prototypes of functions
- Visual notification of source control files that may be out of sync with depot

The only downside I have noticed is in certian situations its really slow on 
linux boxes when switching tabs when many tabs are open but that problem has 
slowly been getting better with the newer releases.

  What's a good text editor to use for Catalyst/TT development?

The editor I really like for C++ doesn't handle XML well.  I've been using 
"Notepad++" for
windows, but the syntax highlighting doesn't understand mixing TT inside the 
base
language, and it has tabs only instead of multiple visible windows.

I would entertain both Windows and Linux solutions.

Looks very interesting.

How do I set it for XML + TT syntax?  Scintilla is also what Notepad++ uses, so it must be 
a matter of it having a suitable syntax file somewhere, or better support for embedding 
sublanguages languages?

Vim does everything you will ever need if you're dealing with text 
:-). Try MacVim if you're on OS X:


http://code.google.com/p/macvim/

gvim


I second the nomination for Vim, for another important reason.  I 
hate switching editors.  So, er... huh?


Vim runs everywhere.  I can wander from platform to platform and not 
have to worry whether something capable is available.  That was 
really something I needed back when (15+ years) when Windows was so 
badly served.  Still using it, even on Solaris!  ;-)


Now if you like learning new editors, or having 2 or 3 "in your 
pocket", fine.  But I've not yet found something I couldn't do in 
Vim.  Hey I rarely need to edit in binary, but it can do it.  And 
hacking Unicode isn't so revolutionary now, but was possible with Vim 
before some other editors.  Good pedigree, barks on command, etc., etc.

capture the results. :( Judging by the timestamps, this happened on 13
January 2011, so my recollection is going to be a bit fuzzy.

Whatever version was current at that time, I was trying these
instructions
:

   1. $ wxPerl -MCPAN -eshell
   2. [cpan] $ install Alien::wxWidgets [choose install from source, which
   is NOT the default]
   3. Go do something else while it compiles wxWidgets.
   4. [cpan] $ install Wx
   5. [cpan] $ install Padre

I'm pretty sure (80%ish) it crapped out at step 3.

Re: [Catalyst] What text editor to use?

[Charlie Gonzalez]

Will,

I think this is a good bug to report to the Padre Developers. I follow
the padre-...@perlide.org mailing list and I know that Padre lacks
testing in a MacOS environment.

Do you mind if I forward this email to the Padre Developers?
If you give the ok can you tell me what version of Padre you were
attempting to install and your version of Perl in your Mac.


Thanks,

Charlie G

Re: [Catalyst] What text editor to use?

[Kutbuddin Doctor]

Another route is Aptana Studio (free version) with EPIC. In addition to 
good perl functionality it also covers HTML, Javascript and CSS nicely. 
Only detriment is that it does not understand the TT directives.


I use VNC (chicken of the VNC) to run Aptana directly from the server.

I would entertain both Windows and Linux solutions.

First of all, see:

http://perl-begin.org/IDEs-and-tools/

I'm personally using GVim, which is the GUI version of Vim (
http://www.vim.org/ ), which was originally based on vi and still mostly
compatible with it, but now it's much more improved and a far different beast.
It takes some time getting used to, although things like
":source $VIMRUNTIME/mswin.vim" can help a lot, even though mswin.vim is not
very recommended.[mswin-vim] Anyway, a usable subset of Vim can be learned
very quickly, and you constantly discover more and more stuff and there are
many people who share useful Vim tips on the Web, on E-mail or on IRC.

As Su-Shee notes here -
http://blogs.perl.org/users/su-shee/2011/01/and-suddenly-youre-hip.html
- vim has recently gained a status of somewhat being of a "hip" and being the
IT-editor, that all the cool kids are using. I've used it a long time before
that, but it is rumoured that it has been the most commonly used editor among
experienced Linux users for a while.

Vim is open-source (also GPL-compatible) and cross-platform - a gratis version
is available for most versions of UNIX/X, for Windows 32-bit and 64-bit, for
Mac OS X, and for many more exotic platforms. It is extensible in many
languages including its built-in vimscript, and Perl 5, Python, Ruby, Tcl, Lua
and Scheme.

Another very fine editor is naturally GNU Emacs, which many people joke about
being a good OS that lacks a good text editor. I personally don't mind the
fact it ships with many extraneous features that I'm likely not going to use,
but I just never been able to get used to it. Some people use it and love it,
but I've known or heard of people who switched from it to Vim (and naturally
vice versa).

I have a list of some other recommended text editors and IDEs (both FOSS and
proprietary) here:

http://www.shlomifish.org/open-source/resources/editors-and-IDEs/

That put aside, I should note that "text is text", and as long as the output
you produce is encoded correctly (e.g: ASCII, UTF-8, etc.) and compiles and is
functional (and may be styled properly), then it doesn't really matter which
editor you're using and different members of your team can use different
editors. I found different editors than vim/gvim useful for working on, say,
text written in the Hebrew alphabet, or bidirectional script, because gvim has
poor support for display Bidirectional text. And some aspects of the vim
philosophy or API are sub-optimal in my case (but I guess I can blame myself
for not contributing).


[mswin-vim] - I have the following in my .vimrc:


" Add Microsoft Windows-like behaviour
" Old habits die hard.
"  - cancelled so old habits will die
" source $VIMRUNTIME/mswin.vim


I commented it only a few months ago, and while there has been some transition
things, I'm getting used to it.

Shlomi Fish



There's also a handy TT syntax highlighting plugin for vim:

Re: [Catalyst] What text editor to use?

[will trillich]

I tried installing Padre on my OSX using the instructions here
http://padre.perlide.org/trac/wiki/DownloadMacOSX

and now my wxperl is broken:
$ wxperl
*wxPerl: posix_spawn:
/Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level/auto/Wx/wxPerl.app/Contents/MacOS/wxPerl5.10.0:
No such file or directory*

I think the point where it went south was in cpan "install Wx".

Fortunately my unix-y perl ("perl") is still fine.

Is there an easy way to unravel this?
