# GDL-sublime
A bundle to make GDL available (meant as easy) in [Sublime Text](http://www.sublimetext.com/).
A bundle to make GDL available ("available" as in "easy" :D) in [Sublime Text](http://www.sublimetext.com/).

# What is GDL?
GDL means 'Geometric Description Language'. [ArchiCAD](http://www.graphisoft.com/) uses it to define a library part (it's also used internally for nearly everything).

Many users of ArchiCAD are making their own library parts. They are all tied to the – unfortunately horrible – build-in object editor which is stuck in the 80's or so. It doesn't even have line numbers!

The purpose of this package is to comfortably write code in the best editor of the galaxy – Sublime Text! ;)

## Installation
Installation is not recommended at this time.
No, really! Do it at your own risk and only for testing, if you're sure what you're doing.
Note: It may still be buggy and that it is *not* complete, see the [TO DO list](#to-do-list).
Also it can look ugly on some Templates, but don't worry, you will get a beatiful template soon.
