xx Reload File On Active
« Thread started on: Mar 13th, 2014, 8:58pm »

I was wondering if you could make the editor have an option to reload the file on activate if it detects the file has changed.

This would be handy because I don't actually write my code in LBB because it doesn't have syntax coloring. So I could have it up in another editor and just have it reload every time I switched back to LBB. smiley

Hmm, that would need thinking about. I don't believe I've come across any other applications which work that way.

Can you not use the LB Workshop approach, which is to call LB (or LBB) when required in order to run, debug or compile the program (with the filename and the appropriate switches specified on the command line)? That way LBB doesn't need to stay open, it just gets run as required.

Indeed, could you not use LB Workshop itself? It does syntax coloring! There's a Wiki article on how to configure it to call LBB:

I didn't realize there was a wiki! Any way you could add the link to the forum header for quick access?

It looks like I'll be getting LB Workshop and doing that. smiley

OK, I've put it in the header instead of the Yahoo! group, which doesn't really need to be linked from here. But to be fair the Wiki has always been directly accessible from the LBB Help menu!
