924 :: Would there be interest in a Sublime plugin for running/compiling Nim code?

  I've made a couple of plugins in the past, and since I really like working in Sublime I'm thinking of building a plugin for running, checking, compiling Nim code, and wanted to see if there would be any interest in a public version of it?

  This basically already exists. https://github.com/Varriount/NimLime

  But contributions are welcome!

  Just a note: I have a major overhaul planned for the plugins (mainly code wise).

  Some new features will include:

  • Settings to control everything
  • Fine-grained command output
  • Better error detection

  Of course, this is really only touching existing commands - If you want to help, or have ideas for improvements, feel free to add issues and send pull requests.

  Aha, that's awesome. (There really needs to be a Tools section at the top of the site)

  @Varriount Would it be hard for you to create support for Sublime-Colorcoder.

  I tried it once after reading an article about Coding in color. This made a lot of sense and since then I am using this where I can.

  Similarly my "comments" are bright and stick out. Cause thats what I need them for. With Nim it is cool to make ## comments lesser important! I love stuff like that!

  @Oderwat Yes, it seems perfectly doable - All it requires is a modified copy of the tmLanguage files that we use.

  That being said, my focus right now is on the refactoring, and with my current college workload, even that's not going as fast as I would like, so I don't know when I will get to it (Onionhammer might have the time though). Feel free to open up an issue and/or PR. Onionhammer and I are fairly responsive with regards to reviews and comments.
