Subject: ANN: PyOXIDE 0.6.1 - Cocoa based Python IDE

PyOXIDE 0.6.1 is now available for abuse, with a bunch of minor (yet nice) features & bug fixes. There is now a usable auto-completion and call tips (which work best in the interactive window, since there is a "live context" for it to look through, but it will try to do it's best on editor windows as well), a simple but much nicer way to show syntax errors (move the selection to the error, bring up a floating tool-tip style with the error), and some fixes for debugging external processes (I've actually been able to debug a Tkinter app using it - in theory, it should work for things like wxPython and pygame apps as well - there's still a long ways to go, but it's one step closer). See the release notes for more details.


PyOXIDE 0.6.1 has only been tested with 10.3, but should work with 10.2 (assuming it can find the python framework). The sources are built using XCode 1.1 on 10.3, but again, probably would compile on 10.2 with Project Builder (since they haven't been converted yet to XCode native projects).

PyOXIDE 0.6.1 is now available on my idisk (as PyOXIDE_0.6.1.dmg):

from the pather finder, "connect to other public folder" and type in "gandreas"
or
http://projects.gandreas.com/pyoxide/


If you want to build from source, you'll need to get PyOXIDE_Src_0.6.1.dmg, and IDEKit_0.2.1.dmg (also built XCode 1.1 on 10.3 but should build with ProjectBuilder on 10.2). IDEKit_0.2.1.dmg is found either on the idisk above or <http://projects.gandreas.com/idekit/> PyOXIDE source is covered under a BSD-style license. The IDEKit framework is covered under LGPL, so you can freely link it in other projects.

At some point in the not-too-distant future, both with be converted to XCode native projects (and thus require 10.3 to build from source). Retaining compatibility for 10.2, however, is an important goal.

If you have problems, questions, enhancment request, etc, please submit request at <http://bugs.gandreas.com> (hopefully it should work - you'll have to make a new account, but the PyOXIDE database is publically available), and feel free to post questions/comments/public discussion to <http://boards.gandreas.com>
