It's actually really hard to miss. Given that the only built-in options it offers are "Notepad" and "Custom", it's safe to conclude that it doesn't ship with any other editor. I use Programmer's Notepad 2, which is available as freeware. Someone has posted a syntax highlighting definition set for PN2 here: http://compsci.ca/v3/viewtopic.php?t=14630 I have not tried it myself. _______________________________________________ Hugs-Users mailing list [hidden email] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/hugs-users |
Hi
WinHugs actually supports a few TextEditors - Textpad, Notepad and another I can't remember (Jot rings a bell...). However, it won't offer to use TextPad unless you have TextPad installed, and similarly with the other editor. It's not too hard to add more editors to WinHugs, if you have a basic knowledge of C. You should be able to use any editor using the Custom facility.

I don't know how WinHugs behaves, though it's probably the same as Hugs. The default default-editor there is what your EDITOR environment variable says (may be called slightly differently on Windows). >> You can change that by >> >> :set -E/usr/bin/myeditor >> >> (on Windows, more likely >> :set -E"C:\Programs and Applications\ed") >> >> in (win)hugs. >> That isn't permanent, however, so you'd want to put that line into your ~/.hugs (~/.winhugs) file so that the editor is set on every startup. >> Or change the environment variable to your preferred editor (a reasonable thing to do anyway). >> >> > > In WinHugs, you set the editor by going to File | Options and on the "WinHugs" tab, there's a section called "Editor".
