I'd place it anywhere I wanted. be it in my home, with my chuckfiles, or in /usr/local/bin, or something else. Just execute it with "python /path/to/runchuck.py path/to/file.ck", and you're all set.

o-kay, that sounds simple enough. Thanks!

(btw, even if the wiki tells you to do something, you don't need to do it. But if you like Scite...)

Er..meaning? i didn't get you. I think Scite is alright. I'm not cool enough yet to use vim/emacs though. That's because I am habituated to IDLE. -- ------- -.- 1/f ))) --. ------- ... http://www.algomantra.com

The thing is, I'm just starting to toy with Chuck and I am not familiar with the syntax of anything but Python. More specifically, I'm getting a syntax error in the original code example posted on this page under "using events. Can someone please tell me what's wrong in that little printer() thingie? -- >

That sample has several errors (incompatible types in assignment, wrong order of operands, missing "fun void" in the function declaration). It doubt anyone ever tried to run it.

PS: Sigh, what do you cats use for a Chuck IDE so that you don't spend days hunting for a missing indent?

Python is the only common language that I know of where indentation is important to the compiler. For other languages it's just a convenience to make it easier for the programmer to read. I personally use XEmacs with the chuck.el that's been posted here a few times. -Scott

Thats very...unfortunate. Some files in my Ubuntu Gutsy dpkg have been corrupted for several months now, with no proper solution in sight. Which means I can't install anything (including Xemacs) using 'aptitude' or synaptic.

Well, I rarely recommend XEmacs to those that aren't already members of the cult. ;-) Syntax highlighting / indentation for Kate (KDE editor) is just XML files, so if somebody wanted to do a syntax file for ChucK that would be relatively easy (since most of it could be copied from C++ or Java) and I could commit that directly into KDE so that it'd be supported in the next release... -Scott

Hm, the Gedit editor in Gutsy has syntax highlighting for both Java and C++, and many other conlangs, and some of it seems friendly to Chuck, but yeah.. I guess I have to find a solution to one problem (dpkg corruption) which will take of the rest...

There is syntax-highlighting for vim on the wiki, and I have made some commands to operate the VM from inside Vim. Join the Force, Luke! Gasten

The saber's still broken, Obi-wan!

Ref to: http://wiki.cs.princeton.edu/index.php/Ck.vim

So there are two very easy steps to follow BUT....

1. In my version (vim71) there is no folder called syntax in vim71 (as in "/usr/share/vim/vim62/syntax") ....which I suppose can be created?

2. Moreover, I need to edit "/usr/share/vim/filetype.vim" --> I have no such file in the vim folder. Should I create this file too?

Sorry if I sound idiotic, it'll get better I promise.

Right, yes, sorry 'bout that. You need to create the files/directories you miss. Gasten

Okay, I have made the modifications as suggestion (syntax folder where you put the ck.vim file, and the filetype.vim file) but when I run $vim filename.ck I see no highlighting. Is there something else I need to do to use this functionality?

Yes, it's written in the wiki too: "Tip from Graham Percival: " If you cannot write to /usr/share/ (lacking root privileges), " enter these commands: " $ echo "syntax on" >> ~/.vimrc " $ mkdir ~/.vim " $ mkdir ~/.vim/syntax " $ cp ck.vim ~/.vim/syntax/ " $ echo "if exists(\"did_load_filetypes\") " finish " endif " augroup filetypedetect " au! BufNewFile,BufRead *.ck setf ck " augroup END" >> ~/.vim/filetype.vim cheers Thomas
