OpenEuphoria: Wiki View

Editing Programs

Euphoria programs are plain text files. That means any text editor may be used to write Euphoria programs.

Immediately after installing Euphoria you have some simple choices:

Try the ed.ex editor found in .../euphoria/bin. This is a text based demo program that has syntax coloring and will execute the demo programs included with Euphoria.
Every operating system will have a default text editor that will edit programs. A windows system will have NotePad and a unix system will have an editor like nano, vi, and a simple GUI editor.
The highly-recommended WEE editor is a cross-platform GUI editor written in Euphoria. See link in the table below.

The RapidEuphoria Archive has many editors listed. You will find editors written in Euphoria and syntax files for a variety of popular editors.

There are third-party editors that support Euphoria by providing syntax highlighting and other useful features.
