Text Editor Integration

Boxes can be called directly from most editors. The editor must support filters, which basically means it must be able to pass some selected text to an external program (boxes), and replace it afterwards with the output of the external program. Most editors can do that.

Currently, we have concrete instructions on how to integrate boxes with the following text editors:

Emacs

Geany

JED

Notepad++

Sublime Text

Vim

Visual Studio Code

Let us know if you have a recipe of how to do this for another text editor! You can add to this page via GitHub or just let us know in the GitHub issues.
