Spyder IDE seems pretty cool. Lots of features. But it is pretty
confusing, and I have been using Eclipse, so that is saying something.
Here are my initial problems:
- It is hard to figure out how to start/create/switch between
workspaces, projects, etc. It took me forever to realize there isn't even a
menu option to switch workspaces, but instead the open file icon next to
the path to the workspace under the text "Project explorer". How do I
create a project from files I already have on the filesystem? The import
doesn't seem to bring any files in.
- I don't know the keyboard bindings for some things, like completion,
and I am not sure where to find them. I guessed that control-space might
do something, but I don't know what other things work.
- I love that the "Object inspector" will show documentation for
objects, but how do I get it to inspect an object other than typing it in?
There doesn't seem to be an menu option for that.
Am I missing a good tutorial on how to get started with things? I guess I
am almost figuring things out as I write this, but it hasn't been totally
intuitive.
