Factor Language Blog

For a while now Factor had a jedit word in the core which would jump to a word definition in a running jEdit instance. Well since then, emacs and vim integration has appeared in contrib/, so I thought it is time to make this hook generic. Now there is a new edit word which calls a quotation stored in the edit-hook global variable with a file name and line number on the stack. The jEdit code has been moved to contrib/jedit/. Loading either the jedit, vim or emacs module sets the edit hook. There is also a new feature: the :edit word starts your editor at the location of the most recent parser error.
