SciTE4D text editor 0.19 released What's new: Autocomplete up to date with Tango 0.99.9, DWT2(revision 87), DFL(revision 98), DWin 0.40(revision 377) dhelp.chm updated to DMD 1.066 People on the "D Language" News Group started looking at many editors to see which one was the most useful editor for D. We found SciTE! The "Package" grew to what it is today with lots of integrated utilities written by "D programming language" community. * Customized Syntax highlighting. * AutoComplete: D keywords, module names of Phobos, Tango, DWin... (suggest the option in a dropdownbox while typing), just hit ENTER or TAB to Autocomplete.) * Code folding for easy code viewing * Auto indentation while typing * Customized building : supported GNU make, Windows bat file and DSSS... * F1 Help : open Helpfile on the D language keyword were the cursor is located. * F7 or Ctrl+F7 : building the project (if build.bat or Makefile or dsss.conf exists) * Press F5 : run the binary * Ctrl + F5 : compile, link, and run the program srcfile, No .obj or .exe file is left behind * Press F8 : debug binary by ddbg (http://ddbg.mainia.de/) * Alt + D : pops up a list of the declarations in the current file * Alt + M : pops up a list of modules, Selecting to jumps to the first line of the declaration or module * Press F12 : search for a declaration with an identifier equal to the one under the cursor and jump there if successful. If you move the cursor over the module name of an import declaration, it will jump to that module. * Ctrl + Alt + Shift + D - Build documentation (http://www.dsource.org/projects/dsss/) * Ctrl + Alt + Shift + T - Run unittest (dsss) * Ctrl + Alt + F1 - online MSDN search on the keyword were the cursor is located. == Getting started == SciTE4d is a stand alone application. you can figure this out in about 2 minutes. 1. dowload and install SciTE4D: http://svn.dsource.org/projects/dwin/downloads/scite4d/scite4d.exe 2. Include path configuration open ...\SciTEGlobal.properties, modify seatd.global.include to fit your specific libraries path. The global include path is supposed to be set in scite4d\SciTEGlobal.properties, the first line contain the include paths for libraries that all of your projects use (like Phobos or Tango). It is a list of paths separated by ';', for example: seatd.global.include=c:\dmd\src\phobos;c:\dmd\tango To change it, modify the line above accordingly and include it in your user options file. 3. building method Configuration Open ...\ybud.conf, modified the make method to fit your needs. The default make is Windows port of GNU make(mingw32-make.exe): make=mingw32-make You may modified it e.g. make=make or make=D:\mypath\make.exe to fit your needs. The default Makefile name is "Makefile": makefile=Makefile The default Windows bat file name is build.bat: batfile=build You may modified it e.g. "building.bat" to fit you needs. dsss binary path: dsss=dsss 4. Click desktop icon to start SciTE4D == The Building == To prepare to use SciTE4D to build your project, you must write a file called build-sourcename.bat or build.bat or Makefile or dsss.conf. For example: 1. Open D:\yourProject\yourFile.d in SciTE4D 2. Press F7 or Ctrl+F7 3. SciTE4D is going to look for a file called: build-yourFile.bat or build.bat or Makefile or dsss.conf if found the content contains string "yourFile" then executes the build-file: call build.bat executes: mingw32-make -f Makefile executes: dsss dsss.conf Enjoy :) == Examples == 1. GNU make example Open ..\examples\makefile\test.d press F7 (or Ctrl+F7) to build test.exe Or press Ctrl+F5 to run test.d directly press F5 to run test.exe after building 2. Windows bat example Open ..\examples\bat\test.d press F7 (or Ctrl+F7) to build test.exe Or press Ctrl+F5 to run test.d directly Press F5 to run test.exe after building 3. dsss example Open ..\examples\dsss\test.d press F7 to debug building. Or press Ctrl+F7 to release building Or press Ctrl+F5 to run test.d directly Press F5 to run test.exe after building == Add your own module Autocomplete to SciTE4D == In SciTE4D folder, run command: ybud --modules libPathA;libPathB;libPathC for example: ybud --modules D:\dmd\src\phobos;D:\dmd\src\tango == Authors == === SciTE === http://www.scintilla.org/SciTE.html === SEATD for SciTE 0.01.2 === By Jascha Wetzel [firstname]@mainia.de home [http://seatd.mainia.de/ SEATD] === D Documentation CHM for DMD 1.066 === By Vladimir Panteleev [http://thecybershadow.net/d/docs/d1.chm download] === simple build tool ybud === By yidabu [http://www.d-programming-language-china.org/ D China] === Customized Syntax highlighting: d.black.properties === by redduke [http://bbs.d-programming-language-china.org/] == Forums == Make suggestions and ask questions in the : [http://www.dsource.org/forums/viewforum.php?f=163 Dsource Forum] [http://bbs.d-programming-language-china.org/ Chinese Forum] == History == 08 Nov 2007 SciTE4D 0.10 released. 10 Feb 2008 SciTE4D 0.11 released.
