Lua Compiler v0.1 Beta


melterx12, from our forums, has released a new program today to help Lua coders get to grips with the language and compile the Lua code for it to run on a PSP. Some of you may be thinking that you don't need a compiler for Lua code, you can simply write it in notepad and save the Lua scripts as .Lua files. Well, this application makes Lua coding easier since it features a great user interface, templates, and some code snippets that make Lua coding quicker and less prone to errors.

This program is in beta form and will be continued by melterx12, who promises a lot more to come from this little application. Coming soon to Lua Compiler is a help menu for all your Lua troubles and a debugging mode to help you find errors in your coding. An 'Active Text Organization System' is also on the cards which will make comments green text, if/=/do commands blue, etc for easy code reading. Overall, if you are a Lua coder that spends a lot of time in notepad, this program will make your life way easier. However, because this is a beta, remember to backup all scripts before editing them with this program just in case something goes wrong.

Lua Compiler v0.1 beta only runs on Windows machines with the .Net Framework 2.0 installed which you can find below.

It appears to be an IDE

 » Call it an IDE
not a compiler.

Don't these programmers know anything? :)

 » IDE Indeed
Not bad though, looking for something with code snippets. But it'd be good to turn this into a more flexible tool, custom snippets and line numbers on side with a project manager when working with multiple LUA files.

 » Misleading name
As others have already mentioned, this is an IDE, not a compiler. A bit misleading, since you actually CAN compile Lua code. For example, GTA: LCS contains a bunch of compiled Lua scripts that set the rules for the various multiplayer modes.
