vim plugin for supercollider

Primary LanguageVim Script

SCVim

This is a fork of https://github.com/sbl/scvim.

It is just my own tinkerings to get it working on Linux, which so far involves copying back some of the original scvim files.

WARNING!! WARNING!!

You will probably be better off using https://github.com/sbl/scvim or the original scvim (http://www.x37v.info/scvim/).

It is highly recommended to use pathogen (https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen) to keep your .vim paths clean. See the supplied helpfile how to setup pathogen if you haven't used it before.

Installation:

Rename the whole scvim folder to "supercollider" and drop it into your "bundle" folder, e.g. "~/.vim/bundle/supercollider".

Or just do: git clone git://github.com/ngm/scvim.git ~/.vim/bundle/supercollider

Symlink SCVim.sc somewhere, where SuperCollider can find it. On Ubuntu that would be

ln -s ~/.vim/bundle/supercollider/sc/SCVim.sc /usr/share/SuperCollider/ /Extensions/SCVim.sc

The rest should hopefully work automatically (that is if you have SuperCollider installed). Edit plugin/supercollider.vim to taste. Or override corresponding function in your ~/.vimrc.

Using it:

To start open a file with the right extension :e foo.sc(d) Enter :SClangStart and a terminal should open with a running sclang session.

Key commands:

in normal/insert mode:

  • F5 to execute a block of code scvim will attempt to find the outermost bracket
  • F6 to execute the current line of code
  • F8 to stop the server 's'
  • F12 is a hard stop

in normal mode:

  • <leader>sd on a word opens the corresponding helpfile
  • <leader>sk recompiles the sc library
  • <leader>sj on a word opens the class file
  • <leader>si on a word opens the implementations of ...
  • <leader>sr on a word opens the references to ...
  • <leader>sm on a global or environment variable lists the known methods

Global variables:

If for some reason vim can't find the path to the two launch scripts start_pipe and sc_dispatcher you can set them manually in your .vimrc

e.g.:

let g:sclangPipeApp = "~/.vim/bundle/supercollider/bin/start_pipe" let g:sclangDispatcher = "~/.vim/bundle/supercollider/bin/sc_dispatcher"
