| - | - Configuration file: tells ZBS where to find the TerraME interpreter. Copy the [[http://www.dpi.inpe.br/gilberto/terrame/zerobrane/user.lua | user.lua]] configuration file to the "cfg" folder where you have installed ZBS. In Windows, it is usually "''C:\ZeroBraneStudio\cfg''". In the MAC, the folder is "''/Applications/ZeroBraneStudio.app/Contents/ZeroBraneStudio/cfg''". In Ubuntu, it is "''/opt/zbstudio/cfg''". | ||
| - | - Interpreter description file: tells ZBS how to use TerraME. Copy the [[http://www.dpi.inpe.br/gilberto/terrame/zerobrane/terrame.lua | terrame.lua]] interpreter description file to the "interpreters" folder where you have installed ZBS. In Windows, this folder is "C:\ZeroBraneStudio\interpreters". In the MAC, it is "''/Applications/ZeroBraneStudio.app/Contents/ZeroBraneStudio/interpreters''". In Ubuntu, it is ''/opt/zbstudio/interpreters''. | ||
| - | - Keyword description: tells ZBS to highlight both Lua and TerraME keywords. Copy the [[http://www.dpi.inpe.br/gilberto/terrame/zerobrane/lua.lua | lua.lua]] keyword description file to the "spec" folder where you have installed ZeroBraneStudio. In Windows, this folder is "C:\ZeroBraneStudio\spec".In the MAC, it is "''/Applications/ZeroBraneStudio.app/Contents/ZeroBraneStudio/spec''". In Ubuntu, it is ''/opt/zbstudio/spec''. | ||
| - | - Optional: delete the other interpreters of ZeroBrane (Corona, Guideros, etc.) and leave only Lua, Lua5.2 and TerraME. | ||
| - | ==== Additional Packages for TerraME ==== | + | === Copy configuration files === |

| + | - Mac: ''/Applications/ZeroBraneStudio.app/Contents/ZeroBraneStudio/'' | ||
| + | - Linux: ''/opt/zbstudio/'' | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Checking if it was correctly configured === | ||
| + | |||
| + | - If Zero Brain is running, close it and open again. | ||
| + | - Go to ''File'' menu, and click ''New'' | ||
| + | - In the main window (which is blank), write ''print("hello")'' | ||
| + | - Save the file with ''.lua'' extension in your computer | ||
| + | - You will see that the names ''print'' and ''"hello"'' will become colored | ||
| + | - Go to ''Project'' menu, in ''Lua Interpreter'', select ''TerraME'' | ||
| + | - Click in the green icon with two triangles pointing to the right (''Execute the current project/file'') | ||
| + | - If everything went fine, you will get the following text in the ''Output'' box in the bottom of Zero Brane: | ||
| + | - <code>Program 'terrame' started in [...] | ||
| + | hello | ||
| + | Program completed in [...] seconds [...]</code> | ||
