History

Orkuncakilkaya e9c15cc620 Phase 7e: polymorphic print(x) + str(x) (retire print_int/print_str) One `print` instead of two C-style names: `print(x)` writes an int OR a string followed by a newline, dispatching on the operand type (int -> %d, string -> %s). `print(int)` emits byte-identically to the old print_int, so every existing call and every smoke-test output is unchanged. print_str was only ever the raw IR-to-stdout dump in ir_flush (no newline), which is not "printing a line" — so it now uses file_write to a new file_stdout() stream, keeping the emitted IR byte-for-byte identical. That frees `print` to have consistent always-newline semantics. Two reseeds: (A) add print + str + file_stdout keeping the intrinsics; (B) migrate the 61 print_int calls to print, ir_flush to file_write(file_stdout()), and delete print_int/print_str (+ the now-dead @.fmt_str). str(x) (the interpolation converter from 7d) is now also a documented standalone builtin. Vocabulary: print/str/file_stdout in, print_int/print_str out (ludic_syntax.h, grammar, LudicTokens.kt). LANGUAGE.md updated. Reseeded (22551 lines); C-free fixpoint holds; goldens identical; 18/18; vocab + doc-fences clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>		2026-08-28 01:22:38 +03:00

Ludic for VS Code

Syntax highlighting, formatting, and full language-server support for Ludic, the AI-first, ECS-native game language. See LANGUAGE.md in the Ludic repository for the language reference.

What you get

	Source
Syntax highlighting	TextMate grammar, works with no build
Semantic highlighting	`ludic-lsp` — real name resolution, so a component reads differently from a local
Diagnostics	structural errors as you type; `ludicc`'s own errors on save
Completion	context-aware: fields after `.`, components inside `query [...]`, phases after `phase`, widgets inside `ui`
Hover	signatures and docs for builtins, intrinsics, and everything you declared
Go to definition / references / rename	across every file in the compilation unit, following `import`
Formatting	format-on-save, comment-preserving
Outline, folding, inlay hints, signature help
```ludic fences in Markdown	highlighted, checked, and formatted

Setup

Build the toolchain once, from the repository root:

./tools/build-tools.sh

That produces build/ludic-lsp and build/ludic-fmt, which the extension finds on its own. If you keep them elsewhere, set ludic.server.path.

Format on save:

"[ludic]": { "editor.formatOnSave": true }

Settings

ludic.server.path — where ludic-lsp lives. Empty = search build/, then PATH.
ludic.server.enabled — turn the server off and keep only static highlighting.
ludic.compilerPath — where ludicc lives, for on-save diagnostics.
ludic.compilerDiagnostics — whether to run the compiler at all.
ludic.indentSize — spaces per level for the formatter.
ludic.trace.server — log LSP traffic (Ludic: Show Language Server Log).

Installing without publishing

cd tools/editors/vscode
npm install
npx @vscode/vsce package
code --install-extension ludic-1.0.0.vsix
