SLASHRUNS : THE EDITOR

The editor can be invoked by pressing F12 or F13 while a slashrun is running. Using the editor will always be the fastest way to interact with a slashrun. In comparison, running a slashrun via a web-page will require a round-trip to the slashrun's server.

With the source editor {1}, you can view the code of the current slashrun, make some changes and run the whole thing again via run in the Edit menu or by pressing F5. It's also possible to save the current code to your hard-disk or to load some new, via the File menu.

Below the source editor comes the console log {2}. It will display eventual warning and error messages resulting from the execution of a slashrun. Those messages always come stamped with the location (i.e. line and column) of the problem within the code.

One way to get to a specific location is to use the location bar {3} at the bottom-right of the window: it will show the current location of the cursor in the source editor. An even quicker way to get to a location is to select some part of a warning or error message in the console log: it will automatically move the cursor to the required location in the source editor.
