I seem to recall that, only after giving a talk about Shoes at my local Rails User Group, I learned that hitting cmd-R in Textmate would run the current file in Shoes (I had probably installed a Shoes bundle). It seems as though you, Sarah, are using Windows, so that's not exactly applicable to you... however, I have heard of e-texteditor, which is a Windows-based Textmate clone. Perhaps Textmate bundles would work in e-texteditor?
Maybe this was more of a hint for our OS X-using list subscribers. :brad On Fri, May 22, 2009 at 3:26 PM, Sarah Allen <[email protected]> wrote: > > On May 22, 2009, at 1:19 PM, Roy Wright wrote: > > Martin DeMello wrote: >> >>> On Sat, May 23, 2009 at 1:26 AM, Sarah Allen <[email protected]> >>> wrote: >>> >>>> I think there must be an easier workflow than what we've been doing: >>>> write >>>> app in notepad++, save to desktop, double-click shoes, click "open an >>>> app" >>>> -- does anyone have a workflow where you can run Shoes directly from the >>>> editor? it would be nice if the shoes window with the errors had a >>>> "Reload" >>>> button and keystroke, likewise with the Shoes window. >>>> >>> >>> I wonder how hard it would be to get a very basic ide going (editor >>> plus "Run" button).
