(Don't forget to read my other .plan for more info about the current TD version and the "Snippeter" thing)

A long-desired feature in any IDE was to be able to spot errors in syntax quickly and before the engine starts. I've been working on just that, and it's looking great. Still some minor bugs to iron out.

For example, when creating a new object, you can either use the assignment method:
%myobj = new MyClass(AnotherName)

Or the nameless "let'snotassignanything":
new MyClass(PrimaryName)

The grammar files I've written have trouble allowing for both. I have a generic idea on how I'm going to do it, so hopefully that will work. It's late and I'm tired.

Later :)

Sam this stuff is really impressive. After making this for the Torque community you'd be able to get a job anywhere doing this kind of thing. I'm sure even the dudes at Garagegames would write you a reference letter. Keep it up man, this stuff is wicked.

Hehe, I'm sure Sam doesn't need this on his resume to get a job ;]

Sam,
When you right click an item or term, you can choose to refrence that item.
Is there a way we can submit (either wiki style or for our own personal reference) refrences for items?

If users were able to submit refrences it would help build a library of definitions rather quickly and probably more completely than you could on your own. Just an idea :]
Again, thanks for your hard work.

That's the plan! :)
