Lua Editor for Corona SDK (Eclipse Indigo Plugin)

Question

Can anyone suggest a good editor for use with Lua scripts specifically for the Corona SDK or help me with the error that I am trying to install the eclipse plugin. I would like to use Eclipse Indigo (64 bit), but I had problems with the Lua plugin. I have a lua site added to Eclipses download sites, but when I try to install it, it says that it "cannot be installed in this environment because its filter is not applicable." Does anyone have an understanding of this error with this plugin? I searched and found error information with other plugins, but the corrections and the underlying reasons are apparently not applicable to my problem.

Answer 1

I downloaded the wrong lua editor for Eclipse. The LuaEclipse problem was the problem, so I used http://www.eclipse.org/koneki/ldt/ and it worked.

Answer 2

Notepad ++ is really useful. Lightweight and has many options.
