TorqueScript syntax mode for SubEthaEdit

I've updated my TorqueScript syntax mode for SubEthaEdit. The popup function browser now correctly displays functions and datablocks.

I downloaded the .mode file but I can't get it to work. I dragged the file into SubEthaEdit's mode folder, fire up the app, and there doesn't seem to be any way to switch to the mode.

I'm using OS 10.4, and whatever the latest version of SubEthaEdit is. Did something break?

I tried getting this to work, but gave up.

I found the plugin for JEdit and loaded that on my PowerMac with 10.4.2 and it works great.
If anyone's having a problem with the SubEthaEdit mode, give JEdit a try..

I haven't used SubEthaEdit in some time, but I can look into this when I get a chance. I'm mostly a BBEdit user, so I didn't even realize it was broken.

By the way, I stopped using jEdit on the Mac due to some strange errors I was getting. Seems that jEdit was doing some weird things to my code, like duplicating sections for no apparent reason. I thought TIDE was promising, but I never got the debugging working even with the help of the TIDE author. That, and I just didn't like jEdit's interface in general, although I did like the Project Viewer.

So I've been trying out SubEthaEdit and it works great with the Torquescript mode. I noticed that the mode didn't include .gui files (just .cs and .mis), but this is simple to correct if anyone is interested...just open up the plist file in the mode (use "Show Package Contents" on the mode file) and add it in.

Too bad SubEthaEdit doesn't have a "Project Viewer" type of plugin, though.

One thing that seems to be missing from SubEthaEdit is the ability to search across different documents (like searching all script files). Anyone here have an effective workaround for it?
