[ANN] ZeroBrane Studio 0.90; now with Lua 5.3 debugging, function outline, and scope-aware auto-complete

[Paul K <paul@...>]

Hi All,

ZeroBrane Studio is a lightweight Lua IDE with code completion, syntax
highlighting, live coding, remote debugger, code analyzer, and
integration with various Lua engines.

Here is the list of highlights for the current version:

  - Added function outline (`Outline` tab next to the `Project` tab).
  - Added Lua 5.3 (beta) binaries and debugging support.
  - Added scope-aware auto-complete for local/global variables.
  - Added hiding/showing files by type in the project/filetree (use
the context menu).
  - Added Esperanto (eo) translation.
  - Improved compatibility with Lua 5.2 interpreter.
  - Improved compatibility with system/custom Lua interpreter.

The UI has been improved with more customization for the toolbar,
removed function dropdown (this has been replaced by the Outline tab),
added Run and Run as Scratchpad icons, and other changes; the full
list is in the changelog [1].

If you are interested in trying Lua 5.3 running/debugging, you can
select Lua 5.3 from the list of interpreters and the debugging should
work in the same way as it does with all other interpreters. The
binaries also include luasocket compiled for Lua 5.3 on all supported
platforms.

If you are using plugins and notice any incompatibilities with the
current version, please let me know.

Installation packages for Windows, OSX, and Linux are available on the
project website: http://studio.zerobrane.com. Thank you for your
patches, suggestions, and support of the project!

Paul.
