Hi there Brian, I just went through this whole process regarding running Spyder, and there is a MUCH easier way of running Spyder in a virtual enviornment. All you have to do is point Spyder (installed in your regular Linux environment) towards the python interpreter of the virtual environment. You can find the option in:
Tools > Preferences > Console > Advanced Settings > Python Executable. And then replace it with the location of the python interpreter of your virtual machine, for example /home/username/python_environments/env/bin/python Sorry, can't help regarding the Cythonize stuff. All the best! On Saturday, September 20, 2014 at 2:44:01 AM UTC+12, BM wrote: > > Hi everyone, > > I have been using Spyder on Windows for a long time, and absolutely love > it.
