Help Finding/Setting up Script Editors

[GangstaRas]

Couple years back I tried to get into scripting but I was brutally reminded why I didn't get started with it. I can't seem to find a proper compiler for these things. I was recommended Squirrel on the grounds that Pawno is being abandoned so to say so it's better to learn this one for 0.4 but I got utterly confused finding a compiler for this thing. With no real guidance anywhere I ended up installing SQuirrel SQL Client that piece of crap is a real headache to just get going typing some code. So my question is what is it that you guys use to actually write your scripts? Is it just ghetto style Notepad++, "Save As" action and hope for the best for no errors or do I have the tools but cant set them up.

Notepad++

Server throws information on error if any. You can fix it easily.

Here's a portable distribution of Sublime Text 3 I cobbled together that includes a custom theme, a syntax highlighter for Squirrel, and a linter that detects basic syntax errors. Download it and run sublime_text.exe.
