A downloadable code editor for Windows and Linux



A new code editor [prototype] I made , mainly as my replacement for emacs and vscode while writing juice for my games , but turns out it can also be used by the public .


Try it out , I will be more than happy to read constructive feedback in the comments

Install instructions

You download provided binaries depending on your operating system of choice .


Pick x86 / 32bit binary app-image file for 32bit CPU

Pick x64 / 64bit binary app-image file for 64bit CPU


What if i have another CPU architecture

I am sorry  just try your luck , because i have not tested for others. I'm in serious need of hiring people who can help me out with this lol.


Installation:

1. Extract the downloaded zip file to your directory of want , using any archiving utility such as :

For windows : 7zip , winrar and windows archiving tool.

For Hackers using linux , use the zip gui tool to extract the zip or use the zip shell tool to do the same .

2. Finally , open the executable binary app image . For linux , you must ensure that the permissions are given to the current user to execute the app image. If not , you can use the chmod utility on the shell to allow execution permissions to the current user . 

Open a shell environment and navigate to the directory of the binary appimage and type : 

sudo chmod 740 ./<Insert name of the app image>


CAUTION

Please dont open up binary files using dice . Autosave is enabled by default , which leads to writing of the binary files , which corrupts them , making them unfunctional. 

I am working on a mechanism (like a switch that turns off autosave at given situations )


TIP

Hold alt key to access the quick menu of the code editor
