I am writing a small program in Julia, and I am wondering if my current
workflow can be improved.
Currently I use sublime text and a terminal. I have a file which I want to
run each time I make some changes. At the moment, I just go to the terminal
and type 'include("MyFile.jl")' each time I want to test the program.
Is there a better way of doing things?
In practise I usually have to close and reopen my instance of Julia each
time I run the file, because otherwise I get errors about types being
redefined, and I worry about the old code interfering. This means it's
actually more annoying to get quick feedback than it would be in most
static languages, where I would just have a keyboard shortcut mapped to
"Compile & Run".
I tried using Julia Studio, but I found that resetting its REPL takes a
very long time for some reason, and it seems to behave very differently to
the normal Julia REPL (I got errors in a different, unreadable format, and
errors which did not occur under the normal REPL).
I also tried the IJulia Notebook about a month ago, but I am confined to a
windows machine and it didn't seem to be fully functional at the time.
Perhaps that has changed?
