Actually ":wa" is the same as ":wall", but I kind of got used to ":wall".

I've not used anything without a debugger since 1998! For that reason I use Zerobrane - I think it's the only option with debugging?

(And if I didn't care about that, I'd move to Moonscript)

Well, since everyone else is chiming in, I guess I'll throw mine in here too.

I use Vim, with a couple different LOVE-specific options. I've written a couple of plugins as well that I'll advertise.

- vim-love-docs:Vim syntax highlighting and helpfile for LÖVE. Allows me to type ":help love.graphics.draw" for example, and get the wiki entry for love.graphics.draw. Also colors LÖVE functions special colors.
- love-launch: Use Alt-L to launch LÖVE. I personally use ,r. It searches up the directory of the currently active file to run, allowing you to work on multiple projects at a time.
- syntastic: Syntax checking. I have it check on save.

edit: to clarify, I did not write syntastic

Oh that's way more advanced than what I've been using!

These are awesome sounding, will they work with Pathogen? My general workflow is to just clone the respective plugin's repo and then pull it when I want to update things.

I like it a lot, personally. I got the idea from @josefnpat

Yes, I use Pathogen and they all work for me.

Also, just to clarify my above post, I did not write syntastic, I just use it.

@Plu, I missed this message earlier, but if you still have troubles with crashes on switching project directories on Ubuntu, try a newer version of ZeroBrane Studio (1.40 or 1.50) as I expect it to be fixed in 1.40+. Let me know if you still seeing crashes on those versions. Thanks. Paul.
