BB2 Language Definition for the Atom Text Editor
Similar to my Notepad++ language definition, I have made a BB2 language definition for the free Atom Text Editor. This one has more features and is more robust, it makes development in Blitz Basic 2 quite convenient!
Feature include:
Please download and test the "beta" version (instructions are included): http://gamephase.net/files/linked/AtomBB2.zip |

This looks really good and I like the fact that folding works.
I have downloaded the files and followed all the instructions as best I can. When I run the editor, the auto-completion works But... I don't have syntax highlighting. I don't have a help pane and F1 doesn't work. The symbols list isn't working. And... Pressing F5 doesn't do anything! Help me please - I would really like to use this editor to code my games.

Ok - solved syntax highlighting by clicking on asc at bottom of window and choosing Blitz Basic 2 from the pop up list.

Have played with run.bat file and Winuae appears but doesn't run (after I realised that my virus software was blocking it from running).

I'll have a better look at it tomorrow. By the way, you should be able to toggle the symbols-list from the menus somewhere, can't remember the exact place.

Can't see any message? Maybe your antivirus program is blocking some/all of the command line tools (including the help command)?

Nope - turned off antivirus and same message pops up. I have obviously done something wrong.

This is a great development! Now I hope that Sven Dröge manages to remove the connection between the AmiBlitz IDE and the compiler. Then we would have a very competent development environment.
