Is there any other way? I don't want to type 'python test.py' every
time I've made any modifications. In Emacs, I can simply fire C-c C-c
to fire the python interpreter. Thanks!
There's always
:map ^C^C :w^M:!python %^M
which makes C-c C-c write the file and then run it in Python.
This is good, but what about starting your file with #!/usr/bin/python,
setting it as executable with :!chmod 755 %, and then leaving python out
of the "run this file" line? Advantage here is that you can then be a
Perl programmer as well, or even toss-off some of those really simple
deals in Bash script.
Another suggestion: maybe leave the ^M off of the end so that you can ^c^c
<enter> or add some arguments if needed.
Of course, if you want emacs-style bindings, you could just use emacs:)
I'd be more inclined to connect this one to something closer to the
escape key and lose the bucky bits.
