Hello,
I just started programming in Python last night, and I've really enjoyed my
experience so far. I would like to know if there is a Windows editor that
recognizes Python and will support a module syntax/definition lists For
instance, let's say that I set form = cgi and then when I hit the period
(".") on the keyboard, a list of objects shows up, such as FieldStorage(),
etc.. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you!

I believe what I'm looking for is an "autocomple te" capable editor :-)

SciTE can handle that: http://scintilla.sourceforge.net/SciTE.html
So can practically every other halfway decent editor these days,
most likely.

Komodo will do it. It will even autocomplete custom class information.
For example, if I type:
x.y.z = 5
the next time I type x. it will autocomplete (suggest) that I add 'y'
and so on. (woooo, aahhhhhh...)

autocomplete, weather it explores your classes or not I don't know.

PythonWin (part of the pywin32/win32all package) has limited
autocomplete. Basically it will auto-complete for modules which are
loaded, so if you import cgi in the interactive session then you will
have autocompletion for cgi. If the module is not loaded, then PythonWin
uses a simpler algorithm that searches through the current file looking
for x.y notations where x matches your currently-begun x.
PythonWin also has very nice ctrl+space identifier completion which
searches back/forward from where you're typing, so you can type longer
identifiers with just a few keystrokes.
Would be nice to have that same set of mechanisms in all Python
editors. I believe Boa has auto-completion in much the same way. Not
sure about the other win32 editors. I think the Activestate IDEs may
have auto-completion, but again, not sure.
Good luck and welcome,
Mike

The best auto-completion you can get for Python is: WingIde http://wingide.com/
Normally WingIDE is quite good at auto-completion but sometimes it needs
some help:
if wingIde does not "recognize" a class you may add:
assert isinstance(btnH ello, wxButton)
and after that point it will handle this for you too...
Good luck,
Marco

But keep in mind that auto-completion is by concepts miles away from
what you see in Java. The problem for us who try to implement this
feature is always that most people don't understand why this is
impossible in a dynamically typed language. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |
