Hey Scott, yeah I noticed that as well… hopefully I or someone will find out the solution (depressing working on this alone, I know why you guys left it now) plus macrabbit is not helping either by not showing up anywhere…

Hey Raul, thanks for picking this up. It’s good to see someone is continuing it’s development. Yeah, I had troubles implementing the HTML support. It’s a little tricky getting it all to work. This line in ColdFusionSyntax.xml is the key , but when I mix it in, it makes the cf support dissapear.

I managed to add a lot to the syntax, but it is still missing some basic things like correct autocomplete (I inputed all the values in there, but for some reason not all of them show up, just certain tags attributes executes de autocomplete) also, no HTML support, that is VERY bad…

It would be very useful if you have some sort of “reference” on how to port cftextmate into sugars… if so I could take care of the missing Syntax… right now all tags and their attributes are included on my version

Yeah, it’s a bit confusing. I’ll make some actual releases available once I’ve got the Sugar to a worth while point.

But for now, all you need to do is visit the sugar on GitHub, click download and select ZIP. Safari will automatically unzip it for you and create a folder, probably called smebberson-coldfusion.sugar-3261b740a2ec632dc1134982397060ad44bf736b.

Take that folder and rename it to coldfusion.sugar. It will turn into a file that your system will recognise. Double click the file and it will automatically install into Espresso.

Yeah, there is a basic version of code folding already in there, but it needs some work. The Sugar isn’t AWESOME at this point, but I’ll keep working away on making it better.

Hey Scott! I’m really pumped to see where you take this! Quick questions, I am new to these sugasbut pulled your repo from git. now what? do I need to place it in a folder somewhere? compile it?

I dont see any sort of a “sugar manager” in espresso to manage these things. Can you help?

BTW if I can make a feature request. When I open a CFC I would love to see my functions automatically folded eclipse does this but neither coda, or espresso will, perhaps that is something a “sugar” could do?

Thanks so much for forking this, Scott! It’s great to see how much you’ve done with the Sugar already. I went ahead and updated the page on my site I created for the Sugar which will hopefully alleviate any confusion users may have when searching. Again, thanks so much for this!
