Has anybody written a syntax color scheme for LUA ( http://www.lua.org - www.lua.org )?
I believe this would be useful for many of us.

There it is.

| I have created a color scheme for LUA. If anybody is interested, just let me know and I will upload it. |

I tried this in 10.4.2 with mixed results. There are aspects of the language that don't work well to the codejock lex. Maybe it could be done int v11?

| I tried a while using the sample framework, but it didn't work that well, wrapped out the function prototype lines etc. If you could upload would be appreciated |

Yes, please post! I'd be happy to test it and help.
It's nice to know there are at least three codejock && Lua users

| See link above. Please notify me if you improve the scheme somehow. Also note that some lines should be uncommented (math.*, debug.* etc). |

I was just about to post a request for this. I'd love it if Codejock could validate the correctness of this and make it part of the distribution. I'm sure there are just as many users wishing to edit Lua as there are people editing Codejock Schema files ;)

Looks like Python made it in, but no Lua

Huh? Made it in what? Has 11.2 been released?

A color scheme is nice, but without expand-collapse regions I’ll stick with Scintilla. I tried valiantly to write a structural Lua scheme and pretty much failed.
Although Lua’s syntax is rather intuitive to program, its block structure doesn’t lend itself well to the model that SyntaxEdit expects. Unlike C, you can’t simply look for curly brackets everywhere.
[===[And don’t forget the cool "infinitely recursive" string literal delimeter!] ===] My experimental scheme stopped around the 10th level of nesting.
Then again, maybe it can be done...

| I hope fixes to much more severe problems mentioned in https://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=6210 - https://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=6210 are scheduled for 11.2.1 too. They were reported in January 2007. It is highest time to have them fixed by now. |

Have you guys tested this _LUA.schclass file? Is it good enough? :) |

it's just colour highlighting - no structural analysis (so no collapse).
add to that other problems with syntaxedit.... -> we still use scintilla... ------------- http://www.wingate.com - http://www.wingate.com |

| adrien, I find it hard to make a better edit control than Scintilla. It's been refined for years. |
