Greetings, I use an editor called 'vim' on GNU/Linux. I invoke vim on the command-line by typing: vi (vi is a link to /usr/bin/vim) In my home directory I have a vim config file named .vimrc (that is: dot_vimrc [the dot makes it hidden]). The .vimrc file has some things in it that do some nice stuff for editing Python files; such as syntax highlighting, line numbers, indenting, and also runs Python when I press the F2 function key. I run vim in an X ternminal called Konsole. I can also run it from the command-line in any tty.
Okay, here it is. Just copy/paste this into an editor, and save it as: .vimrc -------------8<------Cut Here-------->8--------------- " .vimrc " " Created by Jeff Elkner 23 January 2006 " Last modified 2 February 2006 " " Turn on syntax highlighting and autoindenting syntax enable filetype indent on " set autoindent width to 4 spaces (see " http://www.vim.org/tips/tip.php?tip_id=83) set nu set et set sw=4 set smarttab " Bind <f2> key to running the python interpreter on the currently active " file.

Once you're in vim, looking at your code, press F2 to run it. I understand that Emacs also does Python! =) But I won't go there... I don't do Emacs. -- bhaaluu at gmail dot com On 7/17/07, Luke Paireepinart <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > A lot of Python programmers > use Vi for writing their code. do you have access to that through SSH? > I'm not quite sure what you mean by "SSH editor." > -Luke > _______________________________________________ > Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor > _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
