ScripTAP IDE running on Mac OS X

ScripTAP is a basic authoring tool to ease the development of virtual environments. It provides basic functionality like remote debugging and an IDE for editing Lua scripts. It also facilitates a remote launching system for distributed virtual environments.

TAP has a long way of development behind. It is a prototyping system for VR and AR applications. Yet there is very restricted functionality. But in the sense of open source tools I will share it with you early.

ScripTAP is a developer tool for the libTAP Virtual Environment API. It uses Lua 5.0 to provide an easy way of prototyping a VR/AR applications. Due to its implementation the scripting layer is extremly fast.
