So i've been playing around with lua in minecraft and feel quite limited in how fast i can write code. I was wondering what ides you all use.

Sublime Text 3 has a beta out. It's damn nice. Learning the key combos and special features makes it great. I especially love the "multiple cursors" thing about it.

– Here:

Use Sublime Text 3
GravityScore made a package for it that auto-finishes code and syntax highlights all of the API's in ComputerCraft:

Sublime Text 3
Package Forum Post
Github Code

How to install (Windows):

1. Run Sublime and install etc
2. Press CTRL and SHIFT and Press P
3. Type "install"
4. Then type "computercraft" or "ST2-ComputerCraft-Package"
5. Highlight it and click or press enter
6. At the bottom left of the program you will see the progress
7. When installed just restart sublime
8. Bottom right where it will say the language you are writing in (If a new file, normally says Plain Text)
9. Click this and choose ComputerCraft
10. Start Coding!
