# lite-hearted
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
lite-hearted is a small compatibility shim for the lite text editor that allows
|
|
|
|
|
it to run in love2d. It is a quick-and-dirty experiment in embedding editing tools
|
|
|
|
|
into a game engine, to allow for building smooth game development workflows. It's
|
|
|
|
|
also literally a two-evening hack, so you will probably run into some rough edges!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can run it simply by cloning this repo and running `love .`. Due to the
|
|
|
|
|
limitations of love2d's sandboxed filesystem, you can only edit files that are in
|
|
|
|
|
the project itself. Given the goals of this project, this should be fine.

## Overview
|
|
|
|
|
lite is a lightweight text editor written mostly in Lua — it aims to provide
|
2020-05-08 19:07:15 +00:00
|
|
|
something practical, pretty, *small* and fast, implemented as simply as
|
2019-12-28 11:16:32 +00:00
|
|
|
possible; easy to modify and extend, or to use without doing either.

|
## Customization
|
|
|
|
|
Additional functionality can be added through plugins which are available from
|
|
|
|
|
the [plugins repository](https://github.com/rxi/lite-plugins); additional color
|
|
|
|
|
themes can be found in the [colors repository](https://github.com/rxi/lite-colors).
|
|
|
|
|
The editor can be customized by making changes to the
|
|
|
|
|
[user module](data/user/init.lua).

## Building
|
2020-05-09 10:01:28 +00:00
|
|
|
You can build the project yourself on Linux using the provided `build.sh`
|
2019-12-28 11:16:32 +00:00
|
|
|
script. Note that the project does not need to be rebuilt if you are only making
|
|
|
|
|
changes to the Lua portion of the code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Contributing
|
|
|
|
|
Any additional functionality that can be added through a plugin should be done
|
2019-12-28 11:21:45 +00:00
|
|
|
so as a plugin, after which a pull request to the
|
|
|
|
|
[plugins repository](https://github.com/rxi/lite-plugins) can be made. In hopes
|
|
|
|
|
of remaining lightweight, pull requests adding additional functionality to the
|
|
|
|
|
core will likely not be merged. Bug reports and bug fixes are welcome.
