I have been working on a Unity Javascript mode for Emacs for a few weeks ago and now is in a state that is usable enough to share with the community .

As you can see it colors comments (multiline and single line), has support for basic data types, and also supports string coloring.

It also colors function declarations, if – else decisions, while and for/foreach loops and most importantly, it colors all the Unity functions supported by the engine!

Feel free to modify it. Also if you do anything interesting that can be added to the mode just let me know!

If I have time I’ll add a function to open the browser and search the docs for the word where the cursor is positioned. If for some reason you make it before I can, then just contact me and I’ll add it to the mode .

Anyway, if you, like me, are an emacs addict, you can grab this mode from here: unityjs-mode.el

To make it work, just add this to your .emacs:


;; UnityJS mode for emacs
(autoload 'unityjs-mode "unityjs-mode" "Major mode for editing Unity Javascript code." t)
(require 'unityjs-mode)

And make sure to load the path where you are going to store the mode .

First we start with all the people crowded at the hall of the conference room:

Also some of the Unity guys were waiting for the big event!

Then we were able to get into the room, everyone was very excited!

Finally the keynote started! Big news about Unity 2.6 and Unity indie becoming free!

Our special guest from EA finished the keynote.

After the keynote Joachim, Lucas and Joe Robins showed us new things in 2.6 (the profiler and the new animation system).

Then after the “new things in Unity 2.6″ talk, we got our lunch, and some people came to our open mic and showed off their projects.

After that there were more talks, but the battery of my camera died

Stay tuned for tomorrow’s photos!

Still we had some minor technical issues with the Internet, but we finally handled them.

So on this first day, here are some photos:

The Unity Conference entrance.

Bas Smit unpacking, and getting ready for helping set up the event.

Some of the Unity crew helping out with the lanyards.

Both talks started at the same time; above is seen Aras’ talk about image effects and Tom Higgins with his basic introduction to Unity.

All the conference center was full.

After Aras’ talk, Nicholas started his talk about UnityGUI.

Then after Nicholas finished his talk it was lunch time! We where all pretty hungry!

Everyone was chilling out at lunch, but not the Unity crew!

Then, finally Joachim and Lucas began the performance optimization talk showing the profiler that is coming in 2.6!

At the end Lucas and Joachim solved some questions about the performance optimization talk.

Stay tuned for more images tomorrow!
