Editing Curry programs
Of course, one can use any text editor to write and modify Curry programs. However, for some editors (listed below), there exist specific modes to edit or highlight Curry programs.
Emacs
The distributions of the Curry systems
PAKCS and
KiCS2
contain (in the directory tools/emacs
) a Curry mode
(adapted from a Haskell mode) for the editor
Emacs.
The installation and usage is described in the distributed
README
file.
Kate
The Kate editor contains syntax highlighting for Curry programs. This mode can be activated by Kate's download mechanism. To do this, start Kate and go to
Setting -> Configure Kate ... -> Open/Save -> Modes & Filetypes -> Download Highlighting Files ...
In the dialog, just select Curry (it not already selected), click Install
and wait for the installation to finish. You must restart Kate for the
installation to take effect.
Atom
The Atom editor contains syntax highlighting and snippets
for Curry programs with the package language-curry
.
To download the package, start Atom and navigate to
Settings -> Install
type in language-curry
and hit RETURN
.
Select the corresponding package, click Install
and wait for the installation to finish.
Alternatively, it is possible to download the package via command-line with
the Atom Package Manager apm
(must be in your PATH
):
> apm install language-curry
