Hello people,

I have created this topic in order to find out which IDE / Editor people use when writing various types scripts. The majority of you will say Pawno. But as you can see here, there are a lot more options available, but I have never actually come across another person who uses a single one of them.

As for writing libraries, I use Notepad++ with a C++ syntax.

Also, I had a look around on the forum, and didn't see any other topic like this, but I probably have missed one somewhere, if that is the case and that topic is still active, could an administrator please delete this one.

Cheers,
- Bicentric

Previously I used notepad++, now I use Sublime Text 2 and I must say it's a lot more better than anything else, many more features, helpful plugins.

I'm using Notepad++ for PAWN and various other languages, sometimes I use it to edit small portions of bigger programs. I also use a lot of Visual Studio for C#.

[Sinner]

Notepad++ for PAWN. Never needed anything else.

I'm pretty surprised how many people seem to use Notepad++. I use it too, with these extras.

[Scenario]

I as well use Notepad++ for just about all code writing. I'll even use it for other types of files, too.

It has a much better UI than any other IDE I've seen.

I am too.

Since we're also saying what editors we use for other programming languages then:

I use Eclipse for Java, SciTE for Lua, and Notepad++ for JavaScript, PHP, HTML, CSS etc, never really got into doing C# and C++.

I use pawno for everything pawn. Notepad++ for web languages and codeblocks for C languages

[RebeloX]

I use Sublime Text 2

[SuperViper]

I used to use Notepad++ but then it began crashing on me in the middle of writing code and it didn't save my changes so that got me really mad and I started using Sublime Text and it's been really amazing.

I generally use pawno. I do use Notepad++ a lot though, but I would use it more if I could get the compiler working with it (I've followed Slice's tutorial but with no luck). Also, the 'fake natives' don't seem to work with it. Can anyone confirm that?

[zgintasz]

Trust me, if you use notepad++ and think it's good enough - you are wrong. Try Sublime Text 2, you will be surprised. Auto complete is probably one of the best features in it .

Sublime Text 2 is awesome, period.

There is another way to use it without paying money and everyone knows it .

Shame doing so gets you banned!

[MP2]

lol^

I hardly think a text editor (which is basically what it is) is worth $70. That's silly.

Notepad++ is good to use, but every time a new SA:MP version is released you have to deal with adding all the new functions in. In my personal opinion, all I ever needed for SA:MP scripts was Pawno, but with tabs, so I'm using CarbonPawn currently.

You don't have to pay 70 bucks, just visit their download page, and get the free license. It's unlimited, the only downside is that a dialog box pops up after you hit ctrl+save ~10 times. Even then, all you have to is press Esc. Anyways, it's a really powerful text editor.

So I been messing around with Sublime Text 2 today, and it's just plain awesome, I do have one question though, do you guys have a compiler working for it, a PAWN syntax, and a function lookup?
