> The Eclipse Koneki development team is pleased to announce the

> Not only Lua Development Tools is providing you with the features you

> Available features:

> * Error markers
> * Outline
> * Code folding
> * Code templates
> * Occurrence highlighting
> * *Debugger*
>
> Features to be implemented soon:
> * LuaDoc support
> * Custom interpreter definition
>
> To give Lua Development Tools a try, it is super easy: just add the Koneki

> Looking forward to getting your feedback!

I had problems installling it because the DLTK project isn't showing
up on my project. The installation repository for DLTK can be added
with the information from [1].
Looking now at it.

Cheers,
Eike
