Syntax Colorizer

Post by Mikey » Thu Mar 12, 2015 7:38 pm

Is anyone else having trouble making it work? It was working for me when it first came and in alpha 2 a few weeks back, but now it isn't.

I downloaded https://github.com/runrev/livecode/blob ... lder.plist

Then I did
mv ~/Downloads/LiveCodeBuilder.plist ~/Library/"Application Support"/TextWrangler/"Language Modules"/


I see that some of the extensions are now in GitHub as .lcb files (as opposed to .mlc), but even my .mlc files aren't colorizing.

Just noticing this now -- did the file extension change? Are we supposed to .lcb instead of .mlc?

Loading up the latest 8.0 after installing the version from a few weeks back crashed repeatedly at startup until removing the original extensions folder. So am guessing maybe the original downloaded versions weren't valid widgets anymore.

.lcb is the extension you should be using now.

@Mikey -- Got colorizing working on my end simply by copying the code on GitHub, pasting into the LiveCodeBuilder.plist file, and restarting TextWrangler.
