cfa commented 6 years ago

@AlexDaniel updated NeoVim to point at the Vim (rather than Emacs) plugin.

AlexDaniel commented 6 years ago

@cfa oh. I think it should be pointing to https://github.com/neovim/neovim/blob/master/runtime/ftplugin/perl6.vim instead?

cfa commented 6 years ago

@AlexDaniel looks like that's an older version (bundled with vim-perl).

Perhaps both links can be provided—(i) builtin support, (ii) the more up to date plugin?

zoffixznet commented 6 years ago

Sublime text | 🤷 unknown

It has a really awful and unusable Perl 6 highligher, so I'd say it's unsupported. I forget where I installed it from, but lack of support in sublime is the only reason I'm using Atom for P6.

MasterDuke17 commented 6 years ago

I'm pretty sure vim supports Perl 6 by default now.

Tyil commented 6 years ago

@MasterDuke17 Perl 6 has decent support by default in vim, but the vim-perl6 plugin enhances it.

AlexDaniel commented 6 years ago

Yeah, I think I fixed that.

nxadm commented 6 years ago

Maybe this could be turned into a Wiki page?

cfa commented 6 years ago

@nxadm good idea.

We could also potentially snapshot it periodically at https://github.com/perl6/doc so that it's more discoverable for users. Thoughts?

AlexDaniel commented 6 years ago

Well, anyone in perl6 github org (≈300 people) should be able to edit the comment, so functionally any comment is like a shitty wiki page (which is often good enough). And that's not the first time we do that. In fact, we probably get more edits here than on the whole rakudo wiki. Also, here you have an option to just write a comment instead of editing.

so that it's more discoverable for users. Thoughts?

This ticket was meant to be a marketing issue… but yes, I see it outgrowing itself a bit.

We already list editor plugins on https://perl6.org/whatever/, maybe we should just extract the useful parts from that table.

But that leaves the non-issue Issue open. In the wrong repo too. This stuff has little to do with marketing, but is perfect for our user-experience repo.


FWIW, here's a user asking for nano support, if anyone has any advice for them: https://www.reddit.com/r/perl6/comments/881svu/nano_syntax_highlighting_for_perl6/

AlexDaniel commented 6 years ago

@zoffixznet you're right! I totally forgot that we had a user-experience repo.

zaucker commented 6 years ago

Comma should be added to the list (perhaps not before the beta is started in May 2018).

AlexDaniel commented 6 years ago

Sure, once it's out.

nxadm commented 6 years ago

A new column may be needed collecting the license information. Something line FOSS/Commercial with Free Usage/Paid License.

C.

AlexDaniel commented 6 years ago

OK, added it right away as a plugin for IntelliJ IDEA (I hope that's right). Don't know what to do with Comma as standalone IDE, because this ticket has a different purpose. Maybe we can list it on https://perl6.org/whatever/ once it is out.

Thanks everyone for your comments! This ticked was moved to https://github.com/perl6/user-experience/issues/19.
