Gemini

Build status

Original source code by ForeverZer0 and Zeus81 found at http://www.gdunlimited.net/forums/topic/7724-gemini-script-editor/. Terms of use set by ForeverZer0 (found under Download at link above)

Do to a lack of time to fix bugs, and for the benefit of others, I am open-sourcing Gemini, and I welcome anyone with knowledge of .NET to fix/add anything they wish, under the following conditions, which I respectfully ask be followed:

  • Gemini is to remain non-commercial
  • Original credit is to be given, although feel free to add yourself for any changes that are made
  • Please notify me if you decide to host it anywhere other than where I already have

Introduction

Gemini, named after the Zodiac Twins (used in the RPG Maker series), is a feature-rich script editor designed purposefully for the RPG Maker community. It can directly read and write archived Scripts.r*data files, which allows you to use the power of an external IDE without the trouble of importing/exporting scripts to and from the built-in editor.

Features

Newest Features

  • Project-based configuration
  • Able to customize game executable and arguments
  • Can restore last opened tabs per projects for faster production rate

Older Features

  • Uses the popular SciLexer library for syntax highlighting
  • Custom color and font styles for parsing syntax
  • Auto-Complete function to help improve productivity, letting you choose default words, or create your own list
  • Auto-Indentation which follows standard Ruby conventions
  • "Script-Structuring" to apply proper format to your script with the click of a button
  • Batch comment/uncomment selected lines
  • Line highlighter with custom style as an added visual guide
  • Indentation guides for easily seeing the start/end of blocks
  • Brace-matching for tracking down the elusive missing parenthesis...
  • Powerful Find/Replace function, as well as incremental search
  • Tabbed-style editor for quickly switching between open scripts
  • Automatic updater built-in so you can make sure you have the latest version
  • Debug games directly from the editor, with a choice to run normally or in debug mode
  • Character map for using special Unicode character sets
  • Simple and intuitive interface
  • Portable, no-install application
  • Much more!

TODO

  • Get Appveyor to auto-deploy to this repo on version update
  • Move to ScintillaNet 3.5 (Newer and better, but it will be a hassle to fix all the imcompatiblies)
  • Add Drag and Drop functionality to the current Tree View or switch to a better one to view the scripts.
  • Add Ctrl+Tab/Ctrl+Shift+Tab shortcuts for switching for tabs
  • Adapt the update methods to work with the new Git-Repo. (Currently under testing)
