Howdy, If its just the background, you can change that in miniAudicle under Preferences->Editing. There isn't support for theming, however, so you will probably want to change the colors of text also for proper contrast with the background. Some of my students also have a Sublime Text config that has keybindings for e.g. running code. I can try to procure that for you, as Sublime Text is much fuller-featured for text editing. spencer On Thu, Sep 17, 2015 at 3:56 PM, Joel Matthys wrote:

Hello,

Getting started with emacs or vi on OSX isn't too bad. Open Terminal and configure it to your liking in terms of fonts and colors, then install homebrew (http://brew.sh)

and then install your editor of choice

$ brew install emacs

Hello all. I have been learning and enjoying ChucK but I'm running into eyestrain issues with the white background of miniAudicle. In the past I have used Sublime text for CSS/HTML with no issue, so ideally I'm looking for something with a dark background. I've seen things referencing using vim or emacs, but I have no idea how to get that up and running. I've searched the list but all the posts I see assume a level of competency with these editors that I don't have. Is there a resource for getting started (on OSX if that matters) from a beginners perspective with ChucK on something other that miniAudicle?

Thanks in advance.

Thank you all so much for the help with this. I'm going to try to get chuck up and running with sublime text. Much appreciated. On Thu, Sep 17, 2015 at 11:21 PM, Spencer Salazar < spencer@ccrma.stanford.edu> wrote:

As promised, here is the ChucK Sublime Text 3 plugin: https://github.com/tildebyte/ChucK-plugin-for-ST3

Some additional info from Dexter: "It gives you syntax and a chuck build option. Unfortunately sublime text has trouble killing anything other than the most recent shred launched. I ended up doing a lot of killall chuck from the command line."
