I've been using Spyder (WinPython) on and off, lightly, for more than a
year, but I've still got some dumb questions about it. (trying to get into
it deeper now)
1) What does the path box in the upper left of the main window do?
It doesn't seem to set os.getcwd(). What does it do, then?
More generally, what is the difference between the “working”, “global
working”, “current file”, and “base” directories? (Tools>Prefs>Run,
Tools>Prefs>GlobalWorkingDirectory)
Are some of these just inconsistent names for the same thing, or are they
really different things?
2) How can I tell what names have been assigned to the already-imported
modules in WinPython?
For example, numpy was imported "as np". So I need to use np.*; fine, I
know that.
What about the other modules? Is there a list somewhere? I know (again,
for example) that matplotlib.pyplot was imported "as plt", but was
matplotlib itself (the whole thing) imported at all? If so, under what
name ("import matplotlib as ???")? How can I tell?
