processing-java shortcut in .vimrc

in Integration and Hardware • 9 months ago

I created a github repo to help me use vim instead of the Processing IDE. I would like to add Processing specific highlighting and other goodies if possible like the IDE does. This is what I have so far:

https://github.com/originalsurfmex/VimProcessing

Copy code

                
                 "these two commands alias Processing to Java and create a P5 command to run

                
                 "sketches

                
                 au 
                 BufRead
                 ,
                 BufNewFile *.pde 
                 set 
                 filetype
                 =java

                
                 :command P5 :
                 ! processing
                 -java 
                 --sketch
                 =$PWD
                 / --output=/home
                 /ray/tmp/ 
                 --run 
                 --force

It is admittedly rudimentary but its a start. Any tips on creating better syntax highlighting and other goodies? This is currently based on beta 7.

What vanilla processing too (ruby is so much nicer) see this I googled (also kind of knew about).

"I don't always use vanilla, but when I do I prefer Vim"

Monkstone has a good point, he's been working hard on an updated version of ruby-processing, updating the repo daily and the results are awesome:

Ruby-Processing is my preference, however I still use vanilla processing for converting sketches and other tests.

I'll take a look at the vim-processing and see what I can learn from it. Thanks!
