scite

[sauvard]

Hello

This is a scite/lua question.

I know this is not a scite forum but I have seen some topics on scite; so I try.

Its a very basic question. But when the very examples in the documentation fail me, I am lost.

I tried the basic examples to the basic hello world from https://www.scintilla.org/SciTELua.html. Tried to pass an erroneous ext.lua.startup.script but nothing appends.

Is there something to do to activate or even debug lua. Is there a log for scite somewhere?

Here is my version of scite which I found on Centos 7 repo, it seems to indicate that lua is embedded but I may be wrong:

SciTE
Version 3.5.1 compiled for GTK+ 3.8.8
    Nov 15 2014 10:22:35
by Neil Hodgson.
December 1998-September 2014.
http://www.scintilla.org
Lua scripting language by TeCGraf, PUC-Rio
    http://www.lua.org

 

And here is the example I used:

In the property file:

ext.lua.startup.script=<path>/test.lua
command.name.1.*=test Lua
command.subsystem.1.*=3
command.mode.1.*=savebefore:no
command.1.*=testLua

test.lua:

function testLua()
  print ("Hello world!")
end

Best regards

You are right ...  and on top of that you as seeking support for the original SciTE distributed by Neil, so why not ask on his support site?
