Does someone know of any other
editor (for photoshop scripting) besides Visual Basic
where i can reference the Adobe Photoshop 8.0 Object library,
so i can have sort of intellisense as in VB? (but then for javascript)

Thx!

Sorry, I'm only just starting out, so I don't know exactly what you're looking for, but I found this nice friendly little editor here.
http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/site.htm

Hope you find what you're looking for... and when you do, I'd be very interested in it!

Oh well, hopefully someone else will come up with something then!

yep, sure do.

nicest would be a JS-editor within photoshop (or as a plugin?)
since it could then use the photoshop DOM easily (and validate realtime etc)

i found an editor capable of handling it, but havent figured it out yet.....
its called primalscript http://www.primalscript.com/primalscript.aspx

it can make a reference file of any object loaded in windows, which means
this can be used as a real photoshop scripting editor with intellisense
and code completion for this language as far as i can tell!!!!!!!!!!

it also has an object browser with all props/methods etc for all win object,
just look on the OLE tabl at the bottom and open the adobe photoshop object library! but the features above are even way nicer!!!

if anyone else knows/finds out more, please share it here?
