Snafuide

From Ghoulwiki
Jump to: navigation, search

currently in planning, not yet started.

the idea is to create a lightweight ide/code-editor using scintilla, gtk and lua.

the core should be fully scripted in lua with the c++ part only used as a lib providing functions for use by lua, similar as in wmluabutton

planned features

  • syntax analysis to provide code browsing (jump to definition) without requiring compiler output (mainly for c++,lua,php...)
  • refactoring tools
  • syntax options in project wide search (search all calls of functions with names including foobar)
  • vertical selection
  • tabs (multiline)
  • lightweight : no compiler/debugger included
  • syntax coloring using scintilla


  • note : lua locale problem in snafuide : os.setlocale (locale [, category])
