WowLua   Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
WowLua is an in-game Lua scripting environment that includes an interactive Lua interpreter as well as a multi-page script editor. Other features include:

* Syntax coloring, courtesy of krka's spectacular For All Indents and Purposes library
* Sleek buttons, courtesy of Mikk
* When WowLua is running code, it defines a global function print() which directs output to the WowLua window, for convenience. This global is removed when not running from WowLua
* Can open WowLua using /wowlua or /lua. Both of these slash commands will take a lua expression and run it, if provided:

/lua print(14) will open WowLua and print the number 14 to the output window.

Please feel free to post any comments or questions here, you'll find I'm relatively responsible. This addon has been written primarily as a companion tool for World of Warcraft Programming: A Guide and Reference for Creating WoW Addons.

Usability suggestion
First I'd like to say I just bought the WoW Programming book and it's awesome! Love the work you've done, and this addon is really cool. As part of my tinkering while learning how to make addons, I became interested in having a mouse click in the Output window set the focus to the CommandEditBox window. I'm one of those aging gamers whose hand-eye coordination isn't what it used to be and that CommandEditBox height is pretty small. I made a little modification to WowLua.xml and it seems to work ok...

This event added to
Code:
<ScrollingMessageFrame name="$parentOutput" maxLines="9999" fade="false" enableMouse="true">
Code:
<OnMouseDown>
	WowLuaFrameCommandEditBox:SetFocus()
</OnMouseDown>

Thanks. I and I'm sure the other users will appreciate it. We may have differing opinions on this point, but to my mind an out-of-date Interface spec is an issue: a minor one, admittedly, but an issue nonetheless.

Perhaps not much maintenance, but still worthwhile.

another mod that i found that helps with developing mods, and is also out of date, is http://www.wowinterface.com/download...fo.php?id=3999. thats DevTools, to be clear.

i would suggest that if someone steps up to the plate for this mod, that they consider doing the same for DevTools, too.

Huh? This addon is fully up to date. What precisely is the problem?

Talking WOW! LUA!
Amazing I have not discovered this addon before! Absolutely wonderful! Downloaded and installed, it will be SO much easier to work on ideas. True, other addons, like NotesUNeed, allows for editing lua code, loading, saving, executing, but this is much nicer, and with colored text too!!
