linux vhdl

whats a good tool for verilog editing in linux? with syntax highlighting etc.

vhdl editor linux

Your very best bet is EMACS.
 

vhdl linux

ok.. this probably sounds stupid.. but how do you set it to do verilog syntax highlighting?

jelydonut
 

vim verilog mode

vim(gvim) on windows can set highlighting, but i haven't try it on linux. i think you can set it through .exrc file.
good luck.
 

linux vhdl editor

use emacs, you need to get a verilog-mode.el file from verilog.com

editor vhdl linux

i think nedit is a also good edit tools in linux, which also has syntax highlighting of verilog.
 

vim vhdl mode

gvim is good edit tools in linux,and it has syntax highlighting of verilog/vhdl
 

gvim verilog

Hi,
I think emacs is the best for both VHDL and verilog editing.
For VHDL it has electric mode which helps you to type ur code
too fast without bothering about syntax!
For Verilog you get auto modes using which you can do module
connecttions to fast. You dont have to type sensitivity lists and portlists.
Too powerful feature just give it a try!

vi vhdl

I think vi is good tool for edit in linux.
 

verilog mode vim

I am using vi in linux too for verilog editing. It does have all the highlights in different color.
 

vi verilog mode

I do believe EMACS is the best editor, which has the auto-file features, and it is very useful when you edit
a complex design.
 

vhdl edit tool linux

i agree, emacs is the best among all ( but after you used to it).
 

verilog vhdl syntax

I have used both XEmacs and vi/gvim for VHDL and Verilog. I think if you are using VHDL, Xemacs is the best because of its powerfull VHDL mode. The Xemacs has complex (as compared to vi/gvim) editing commands, like column select, searching ease.
In verilog, I made my own cutom file for Gvim which gives me the power of Verilog electric mode of Emacs and the inbuilt utilities of Gvim. I guess Gvim is simpler and elegant than Emacs.
 

vim verilog +configuration

I too found that xemacs with verilog_mode.el gives a colorful editing. You could possible customize the xemacs by using abbreviations. You can make your top level modules in 5 minutes otherwise could take days and prone to error.
 

verilog mode nedit

I use gvim, and gvim is very powerful.
 

emacs verilog vhdl

We do not need to discuss which is the best. It is personal like. Only the tools can finished what you want is a good tool for you.

snake_eyes,
could you upload you cutom file for Gvim which gives me the power of Verilog electric mode of Emacs? I feel insteresting about it. thanks.

emacs verilog vim

I wonder whether there is a XEMACS for Windows or not?
 

vim windows vhdl

I use Nedit, it has syntax highlight.

For verilog-mode or VHDL-mode, GNU Emacs and XEmacs are totally the same. Gvim is good, but it's far from powerful than Emacs/XEmacs.
