QTADS uses all the formatting bits like <tt> and <center>, which I found Gargoyle and others do not, for what it’s worth. Still, people choose to use Gargoyle so it’s still worth testing on.
Also: Hello, fellow Linux TADS user!!! I have a neat toolset for you, if your distro is able to run it!!
- Install VSCode (the package is called “code”, I think).
- Install your preferred code spell checker extension for VSCode.
- Install the absolutely wonderful TADS extension for VSCode, created by this absolute hero!
- Tada!
That extension for VSCode gives you TADS 3 syntax highlighting, code validation, several really useful analysis tools, and a map-builder! Also, since you’re running it in VSCode your edit-compile-test iteration time goes WAYYY down! That TADS extension actually lets you do a compile with every save operation, which I think is quite handy! It also comes with a way to automatically reopen the interpreter of your choice, but I actually have an open-interpreter script (usually called run.sh) so I can quickly test it on my own time.
Lemme know what you think!!
