Small bug I found: When I change the editor theme to something other than `default`, the next time I start up the editor, the theme isn't loaded. Instead, I just get some light grey text on a dark grey background.

UX Annoyance: When clicking on an exception, there's no visual indication that it's been clicked on. I found that Shift+Tabbing brings you back to the editor pane (other than using the mouse).

A couple more things that could just be me being stupid. When I try to eval using Ctrl+Shift+Enter, nothing happens. Instead, I have to eval each line one-by-one. I tried creating a new key binding, but couldn't figure out how to delimit my keys to allow modifiers. I also can't figure out how to pop up documentation or data flow as demo'd in the original light table (this is my first time using any version of light table). I tried `(doc <foo>)`, but it just evaluates to `nil`.

Anyways, hope these comments might be useful in terms of my user experience as a first time user.



Created an issue for the first [1]

Not sure about the ctrl+shift+enter not working, I'll see if I can come up with a repro. Keys are delimited with -, so Ctrl-Shift-Enter

For (doc ..) take a look at the bottom console, click the little arrow which should be blue when there's new content in there. All prints go to that console.

Thanks for the report! :)

Thanks for the fast response! I'm really hopeful for the future of Light Table, and I appreciate the work you've put it.


the little arrow is white on a grey button. If I click it opens up something grey that it's empty. I cannot write or anything it's just a grey box.. :s
