Simple PB code editor
Hello at all
By miracle, has anyone seen a pb code of very simple editor who have the base, like:
Line number
Folding
keywords color
Research
Hightlighting same word selected
Copy paste
And obviously more... it's always interesting like :
Open procedure with double click on name
Etc...
Have a good day

Hi Kwai
That is not a simple editor.
But what you describe is in the open source PB IDE.

Re: Simple PB code editor
Hello skywalk
Happy to talk to you
, there are a long time
Yes you have right, i have also thinking to our IDE of love
But one time, at the begining, i have take a look to the source
, and i have closed the source 
It's surely possible to extract only the EDITOR, but i think perhaps more difficult for me that create another one
Further more i think FRED not be really happy if we do that

Re: Simple PB code editor
Search the forum for GoScintilla.
I started with GoScintilla for my code editor and that will give you most of what you are looking for.
My editor is for Basic that runs on various microprocessors and is too convoluted for you to use as a start.
You will find a couple of changes are needed to run GoScintilla in recent versions of PB but not too many.

Hidden gem from pf Shadoko from the 3d section. (Hidden, because it is in the 3d section.) His shader editor might be a good base for your needs:

Re: Simple PB code editor
Hello TassyJim
Glad to talk you for the first time
There are a long time, i try to do with GoScintilla (i believe) and each function one by one works very well (Folding or Lightning, etc...) but when i have adding all the functions together...my code is so hard to understand, i abandoned and never find the bug
And i have use several days for create it (I'm only KCC
)
Furthermore, before write this thread, i research my complex code for ask help...and it's worst...impossible to find it
I say to me...all do to the begining, perhaps it's time to start to a good base, if something already exist
@Miso
Thanks a lot, i take a look

@Kwai chang caine
But seeing your next post, I belive you already did most of the hard work then.
Well, still worth to look at it

Re: Simple PB code editor
whaooouuh !!! that seems like a good starting point for what I want to do, you're right.
I'd never seen it before because I'm not interested in games or 2D/3D.
Thanks a lot for your precious help
This PFShadoko is really too strong

Re: Simple PB code editor
I agree. And you would not find it while searching for keywords like scintilla. I think. Not sure 
Re: Simple PB code editor
I had no luck with GoScintilla due to multi-threading errors.
Thanks for the post on 2D/3D editor.
I will also have a look.

Waooouuuhh !!!Thanks a lot for having confessed your problem with GoScintillaskywalk wrote: Wed Dec 03, 2025 2:10 am I had no luck with GoScintilla due to multi-threading errors.
You cheer me up...because if you...you have problem with your great knowledge...try to imagine KCC
It seems that using Scintilla directly is very hard, so I don't even dare to think about what it must be for me
