Re: Development environment

[Asko Kauppi <askok@...>]

Though this might sound like heresy to you, I've never really required  
an IDE for Lua development. I'm using SEE (Subethaedit) editor on OSX,  
which has good syntax highlighting support for Lua.

I don't know if good code completion is really even possible with an  
all-dynamic language s.a. Lua. Anything can have anything.

I'm eager to see the responses, though. If there were to be a good Lua  
debugger, it should actually be a joined C++ / Lua debugger, in my  
opinion.
