Writing List/Show/Filter/etc. Functions

Hi,

How are people writing functions in _design documents? Futon's useful for map/reduce functions, but what about everything else? Right now, I write code in BBEdit (on Mac OS X), then have to do a search/replace to convert line breaks, tabs, etc. into \n, \t, paste it into a _design doc in Futon, and test. It's really tedious.

What kind of workflows do people have for efficiently writing and testing functions?

Thanks,

Hi King Huang

couchapp is a python tool that amongst other things allows using all
of your maps/list/shows/docs as separate files, and then packages them
up into a single design doc.

There are a bunch of other pages on the wiki incl a few tutorials.

I use Intellij IDEA and SubEthaEdit to actually edit the individual files
and manage it all with couchapp and git
