Ok, you guys make me weak.
As Phil said, writing one's own editor seems to be the best option. I
thought about some features which I want to have included in a Python
editor and I ask you to send your feature suggestions.
At the moment, I carry out my civil service (I searched the web for the
translation of "Zivildienst", but nothing really satisfied me), so I got
a small amount of free time for which I am willing to spend it on coding
a Python editor.
The features I want to implement are:
- code/member autocompletion for all classes (sip classes will be a bit
tricky, because they don't show all their members at a dir() call, maybe
someone could give me a hint)
- calltips
(If you want to see those features in action, take a look at PyCrust
(www.wxpython.org) -- to die for...)
- documentation viewer, maybe shows member list if scope is in a Qt class
- class browser (there should be enough programs including code for that)
- emacs style indentation and TAB behaviour
- some other emacs features like auto newlines and auto indentation
- module browser
Before I start coding, I want to take a look at Gideon, the new version
of KDevelop, but I didn't have the time to get beta rpm's for kde3.1 for
my SuSE box, and beta2 is late ;-)
But if it does not please me and my enthusiams survives the next weeks,
I should think about it.
Greetings,
Torsten
