First - Thank you for an awesome tool! Just what I've been waiting for
The IDE is very nice, but there are a few text editors that support the integration of coding languages into them -- and therefore offer a standard environment for whatever languages a developer may be using.
For example, I use one customisable text-editor (TextPad) for developing all my PC-platform apps in AutoIt, Sybase, VBA, ASP, HTML, etc.. and it would be great if I could use it for FBA applications too. Another popular (and open source) text-editor that lends itself to customisation for IDE purposes is SCiTE.
The way that these text editors support any scripting/programming language, is that they pass various commandline parameters to a compiler for each language. In the simplest form, one passes to the compiler: the name of a source file to compile, along with other commandline switches to indicate what should happen after compilation (compile-and-run, or compile to CAB or Setup.exe, etc).
You have clearly invested a lot of effort into the FBA IDE, and you have done it very well from what I have seen so far. But I believe that the commandline compiler would free you up from reinventing the IDE "wheel", and allow you to focus on language features instead. AND it would mean that a developer could integrate FBA with his text-editor (Development Environment) of choice.
So I was wondering if it might be possible to provide a commandline FBA compiler, please?
TIA
