  and as I was discussing with @Atilim, soon it can also be a good debugger.

  FYI we have just release the 0.8 RC1, you might want to have a look at the list of new features here: http://www.eclipse.org/koneki/new_and_noteworthy.php In particular, you might be interested by the progress we've made towards providing smart content assist.
  I understand that LuaSocket should be integrated very soon in Gideros Mobile, thus it is likely that Koneki's visual debugger should be available soon too! >-

  Oh, and could someone point me towards the "source" for this http://www.giderosmobile.com/documentation/reference_manual.html ; I mean, is it generated from some C and or Lua code available somewhere?
  I'd be willing to convert it to the Koneki doc format that allows super-cool content assist, code navigation and stuff... Of course I could use the HTML file directly but it is not easy to parse and lacks a lot of semantics regarding what is a module, what is a function etc.
  Bonus points to the person who could also tell me the license of the API documentation, in order to know if I'd be allowed to distribute the Lua files in the format that Koneki expects...
  
  Thanks!

  It's generated from a markdown document. I see that under new and noteworthy, you have markdown support so you can easily insert that file into Koneki.
  
  There's no license with the API doc, we only expect "fair usage". Anyone is allowed to distribute the documentation unless they claim that they've written the doc ;-)
  
  @atilim can send you the generator and corresponding markdown file.

  I already like Koneki LDT a lot, now it has real potential for us Gideros users, with the completion, debugging etc - great!
  
  Thank you @kartben and welcome

  @atilim sent me the documentation files today. My generation script really is dirty, but it is starting to look good... See http://imgur.com/a/VQfN9

  OK, so it is still way perfectible but the Execution Environment that you should add to Koneki (and associate your Lua project to) is available here: http://benjamin-cabe.com/koneki/execution-environments/gideros.zip
  
  I have played with a few samples of the Studio (e.g. ColorTransform) and it seems to be working pretty well!
  
  Let me know if you need help in setting it up, I'd be more than happy to assist you.
  
  FWIW I don't know what exact subset of Lua is available in Gideros (e.g. math, io, table...) so there's no code assistance for it yet. If someone can kindly let me know what I should add, I will certainly do so!

  Awesome work!! I used Eclipse IDE years ago.
  
  Can anyone give a short review how to setup Koneki Eclipse for Gideros Studio?
  
  Ok, I can edit the project files and fire the Gideros IDE for a test run, but how about running "compile" thru Koneki Eclipse?
  Thanks guys!!!

  @festival on mac you can create a new external build configuration and point it to the same applescript you use for Sublime Text 2, using it the same way
  
  For anyone who's interested script and details are here...

  I have uploaded the updated execution environment (same link as before). Again this is quick and dirty, I may have forgotten some functions or modules, or put some that are in Lua 5.1 and should not be part of the Gideros runtime...
  From the Preferences (Lua > Execution Environments) you should remove the "gideros-2012.2.2.1" environment and then "Add..." it again using the new ZIP file)

  Hey there! How are things going with the prototype of Gideros Execution Environment? Feel free to provide feedback (good or bad ) either on this thread or, probably better, directly on the Koneki forum: http://www.eclipse.org/forums/eclipse.koneki
  
  Thank you!

  Hi,
  
  I am on OSX and I cannot get this to work. I have added to the execution environment. But I do not see code completion or can build\launch to gideros.

  @zakkwylde666
  
  Try this...
  
  For running I created this script...
  
  http://www.giderosmobile.com/forum/discussion/861/text-editor-heaven#Item_7
  
  For Completion etc after the Execution Environment is installed do this
  
  Right click the project and select Properties
  
  Choose Lua -> Build Path -> Libraries tab
  
  Then follow the pics attached
  
  
  cheers

  There's a weird issue with syntax colouring - doesn't seem to affect short files - global and local colours can get lost??? See Pics

  @kartben
  i tried LDT eclipse, and i've used the gideros EE and lua 5.1 EE but it seems i cant use the open declaration feature and the code layout only list the local variable that's defined in the lua file(outside of all functions). am i missing something?
