Whenever you run the compiler for the html target, the mserver app will steal the focus of the current one which is really annoying. There is a simple setting, that will make mserver a background app. Make sure it's not running while you make these changes. 1) Open Finder, go to monkey/bin 2) Right click mserver_macos.app, select Show Package Contents, open Info.plist (in Contents) and open it with your favourite texteditor 3) Add these 2 lines <key>LSBackgroundOnly</key> <true/> 4) save and close Now there won't be any BlitzMax icon in your dock anymore and you can simply hide/minimize mserver and let it run in the background. cheers ----- PS: combined with the new split view feature in 10.11, this means you can have your editor open with the game in full screen, side by side: ![]() |

Cool, excellent idea, thanks! What's this editor that you're using? |

TextMate 2. Someone here made a TextMate 1 plugin for monkey which works for the most part in TM2 (syntax highlighting, building, ...) |
