Re: [Factor-talk] Noob
Hello Steve, Welcome to Factor, it is a great community. You may want to look here to see how to run a Factor script from the command line: http://leto.net/factor/2008/11/running-a-factor-script.html Then you tie that in with how your editor invokes external commands (:! in vim). You can even have the script use the highlighted text in the editor to determine what to run, etc. Cheers, On Mon, Jan 19, 2009 at 5:57 PM, Steve Weeks wrote: > I'm learning factor and have some of those noob questions.

[Factor-talk] Noob
I'm learning factor and have some of those noob questions. I can program in quite a few languages, the usual things plus Smalltalk, Ruby and a little Forth, so my questions aren't really about the language (which looks pretty interesting). It is the simple things like using the REPL appropriately. Right now, I'm using Scite and while I'm usually willing to switch editors (and really want syntax coloring) I'm am not willing to switch to emacs so FUEL is not an option. I looked at emacs again today and I know people really love it, but no, I'm not willing to switch. So here is my question... I edit my code in Scite, press ctrl-S to save the file. Atl-tab to switch to the Factor listener. Press ctrl-P Down arrow twice to the line "" reload Press enter twice Assuming I didn't screw anything up (I'm a noob, remember) Press ctrl-P Down arrow twice Press enter twice to run the word for my app I'm sure there is a simpler way and I'm going to feel dumb when you tell me ;-P Steve -- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword ___ Factor-talk mailing list Factor-talk@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/factor-talk
Re: [Factor-talk] noob question on editor usage.
Had to run-file a source first. After that, Factor apparently knows where the sourcefile lives. And that's why edit can be used on any of the newly loaded words (i guess ;-) Neat feature!

It is meant for words defined in source files, this includes standard library words as well as words you write yourself.

Re: [Factor-talk] noob question on editor usage.
That's because your 'test' word was defined in the listener, and not in a source file. Try something like \ + edit To open the library word '+'. It should open core/math/math.factor in scite.

Re: [Factor-talk] noob question on editor usage.
Hi Matthew and Daniel, thanks for the answer. Indeed the USE works fine. However, when i create a dummy word like : test * . ; and i enter \ test edit no error is reported, but also Scite doesn't open. I already have put the path to scite.exe in the Windows environment variable PATH, but still no result. Do I need to specify the path to Scite manually (e.g. in edit-location) ? Sorry to bother again ;-) TIA, Arie 2007/11/4, Daniel Ehrenberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > To load a vocabulary, generally you use the parsing word USE: or > USING:.

Re: [Factor-talk] noob question on editor usage.
To load a vocabulary, generally you use the parsing word USE: or USING:. You can look up the help files on these words for more details, but in this case, you just need to enter the command USE: editors.scite at the listener. (You might later want to save an image with this loaded, or put it in your .factor-rc, but for now, just entering this command should do.)

[Factor-talk] noob question on editor usage.
Hi, i found this - edit ( defspec -- ) Depending on the editor you are using, you must load one of the child vocabularies of the editors vocabulary, for example editors.emacs. in the documentation and am aware that i (in my case) should "load" editors.scite. But i don't know how to "load" :-( I found "load-vocab" but didn't manage to use it properly. Question 1: Does somebody have a literal example? Question 2: is there a kind of INI file to do this kind of thing automatically every time the workspace is started? TIA, Arie - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
