SPE editor slow?

[timmy]

hello i've been using the SPE editor on a moderately large project and
it's constantly pausing during editing, like it's attempting to check
something as i edit.
as you can imagine a 4 second pause every few characters is EXTREMELY
annoying when you just want to get some work done. i really like SPE's
layout and features but if it's going to be dogshit slow all the time
i'll have to change. please help!

SPE does error syntax checking which works fine for normal sized python
files. With these settings you can speed up SPE for larger projects:
1. Edit>Preferences>Editor: Check realtime with "none" (default value:
compiler)
2. Edit>Preferences>Editor: Update sidebar "when clicked"

You can first try step 1, if you want SPE faster, use step 2 as well.

thanks stani i actually had an incling that 2. was the real problem.
i've got probably 200 or so clases in my project and it was pausing
mainly when it came to names of things or a .
i changed it to on clicked and it's fine now.

it still does something else though that i'm at a loss to fix. when i
open a file or run a script is throws up errors saying "Failed to
display HTML document in ISO-8859-1 encoding"

i guess thats a problem with those bottom info windows?

The bottom info window is indeed a wxhtml window. Please check if this
problem also occurs in the wxpython demo. If yes, report this on the
wxpython-user mailing list, otherwise report to my gmail address.
