Editor other than UniTron for Unity Mac

Archived Forums Questions & Answers

Is there something to use to edit Unity Javascript on Mac other than UniTron?

Why not UniTron.. No codebreak points or markers. UniTron is extremely weak in terms of parsing - it doesn't highlight variable type declarations, and it often mistakenly parses entire blocks as comments such as :

 F=m*a; //*damping;
 I=F*t;
 disp.text=I.ToString();

Because of the `//*` in damping, everything after that will show with same highlighting as comments on UniTron...

MonoDevelop is pretty good. See Unity docs for details of how to set it up.

There are also a few gotchas with MonoDevelop that can be worth considering but imo MonoDevelop seems pretty nice. I haven't used it much, if any at all. http://answers.unity3d.com/search?q=monodevelop+crash

I actually use Notepad++ a lot of the time, having learned to survive without name completion ... but I'm growing to like MonoDevelop.

monodevelop seems more geared for C# and other .NET - what about javascript
