Topic: If Crimson is your ascii basher ...

Those animated gif's on that webpage crack me up.

Hey Randy, I added a .spc file (a required companion file), see original post.

Cool at first I used the autolisp.spc that comes with Crimson.  I gotta see this work, gonna be sweet.

Am I the only Crimson user here?

I downloaded it last night just to make sure the syntax file I made would work; that's how I found out about the companion file necessity. It's a capable editor for the cost but I won't be parting company with Textpad any time soon. I've been using it for a decade now; we're like old friends - we know how we work (I'm even in the credits for beeing a beta tester, woot). Textpad's only $27 to register (the non registered version is 100% functional), one of the best deals on the net considering what you get.

I use it at work for some things, not programming though.

Maybe I need to give it a shot.

For those trying out crimson ...

Config hint:



Document doesn't appear to highlight correctly?



We've now exhausted my expertise with this editor.

Thanks again Michael.  Do you have a real job??  How do you have time for all this and earning milk money too??  Anyway, this is just wayyyyyy cool, thanks again.

Yep, they don't make me work Sunday's tho.

BTW -- you may wish to edit this file:

c:\Program files\crimson editor\link\extension.lsp

So it reads:

LANGSPEC:VLISP.SPC
KEYWORDS:VLISP.KEY

Thanks, done, what does that do for me?  I really haven't banged out anything with it yet, just checked a few I've already written.

That instructs crismon to use said syntax fils for files sporting the extension '.lsp' automatically (I couldn't figure out why it wasn't doing it automatically when I had provided the syntax files, then I read the fine manual; la duh).

You'll have to copy extension.lsp to extension.mnl if you edit those files too.

oh good thought, thanks again.

Ya know, this crimson is a capable little sucker ...
