Using LBB with vi/vim
« Thread started on: Jul 30th, 2014, 3:44pm » |

Hi, I'm wondering how to setup vi/vim to use LBB as the compiler.
I'm running CYGWIN in Windows.
Any pointers?

I don't know vi well enough to give precise details, but you need it to execute the command 'lbb -c -a -m progname.bas' where progname is the name of the program you are editing. If LBB isn't on the path then you can add it explicitly: 'path_to_lbb\lbb -c -a -m progname.bas'
There can't be many Liberty BASIC programmers who like using vi.

:!cmd /c lbb -c -a -m %
(this is how to do it)
Note: Lbb doesn't like a source file with no extension
then to run it in the vim console (if you compiled as console application)
:!cmd /c yourprog
edit: make sure lbb.exe is in your home dir
edit: also input doesn't seem to work right running THROUGH vim console (the compiled program)

OK, update!
I've found out how to run it better:
Install vim for windows, but use the non gui vim that comes with it.
Use PowerShell, and start it with a shortcut that starts in your LBB folder, not a special protected folder.
Run vim like this:
vim progname.bas
press esc, then colon
then type
map <F5> :!lbb -c-a-m %
press enter
press esc, then colon
then type
map <F6> :!progname.exe
press enter
now progname.exe is the name of your compiled prog
So:
F5 enter in Vim compiles program
F6 enter runs program
