Fabio,
I think the following steps (as a protoype of an Eclipse macro) might explain
the use and functionality that I desire
(1) check to see if Python external shell is open, if not open one
(2) save code in editor window
(3) run the code (file) -- execfile(%file)
(4) move window attention to python shell
In an IDLE file editor window, F5 basically runs these steps
I am sure some things that I am used to doing with an IDLE-Python Shell combo
can be done directly in Eclipse+Pydev, but here is an example of what I might
do, after running some code script (where in
this example I was modifying an existing pyhton UNIX shell script to run as a
callable function, so interactive session experimentation and exploration helps)
** look at variables in memory
>>> dir()
['CACHE', 'DAYSECS', 'DEBUG', 'MONTH2NUM', 'Y2KCUTOFF', '__builtins__',
'__doc__', '__name__', '__version__', 'aggDates', 'allDates', 'anydbm', 'dd',
'dd_mmm_yy2yyyymmdd', 'dx', 'getCachedTicker', 'getRate', 'getTicker',
'getTickers', 'getTickersNow', 'getTickersNowChunk', 'getopt', 'isInt', 'main',
'os', 'parseDate', 'pyQ', 're', 'showUsage', 'showVersion', 'splitLines',
'string', 'sys', 'time', 'traceback', 'urllib', 'usageError', 'yy2yyyy']
** print out one
>>> print dx
01JAN2006
** try out a function in interactive mode
>>> d1='20080219'
>>> d2='20080318'
>>> pyQ('IBM',d1,d2)
[['ibm', '20080319', 'N/A', 'N/A', 'N/A', '118.41', '3100']]
