Possibly OT, but what IDE is most popular for Blitz development or do most people just stick the the default one?

i use the default one when i try stuff out because its quick and easy but i use blide when i am working on a project because it is much easier to navigate around you code IMO.

Yup. Blide, although sometimes default at blide doesn't always pick the right errorline :) Also can't F1 on text in Blide for some odd reason :)

Diablo (Posted 2006) [#4]

you can but you need to select the text by dragging from the right to left - this is a really odd bug dont u think?

There is also the BlitzMax IDE Community Edition which is improving on the original IDE. We're also looking for contributions, so you're welcome to add your own tweaks to iit, and as it's written in BlitzMax, it's cross-platform too. http://www.blitzbasic.com/Community/posts.php?topic=55410

Hey, that's funny, I'm making BLIde for months and nobody had out told me about this F1 bug!!! It's working Ok in my computer. Very strange! I'll see how to arrange it.

I still use Eclipse with Bruceys plug-in, mostly if I'm working in Eclipse anyway (which is usually the case). Alternatively I use MaxIDE Community Edition (because it boots a lot quicker than Eclipse).

I didn't know there was a default IDE with BlitzMax?:) I would recommend Blide.
