  • Lingo CLM (Codeless language module) to use in BBedit version 8.5 or greater.
    BBedit is a very powerful text/code editor for OSX. Learn more about BBedit at the Barebones website
    This CLM for BBedit adds Adobe Director Lingo language to BBedits recognized languages. Files with the extension .ls (lingo script) will automatically be recognized as lingo.
    This language module adds syntax coloring and function recognition to lingo script files. So the functions show up in the functions menu and can be folded due to BBedits new code folding feature, which was introduced in version 8.5.

  • BBedit version 8.5 or greater

  • Download and unstuff

  • Move the file "Lingo.plist" to the folder ˜/Library/Application Support/BBEdit/Language Modules/ (You might need to create the folder "Language Modules")


  • Restart BBedit
  • Unfortunately CLMs only support folding of functions.
    To be able to fold functions AND other structures as for example if..else..end if or repeat..end repeat and so on, a compiled language module would be necessary.
