[PyCrust] New stuff

[Patrick K. O'B. <po...@or...>]

Just wanted to point out some recent changes to the CVS version of PyCrust, 
in case some of you might want to play with them. In particular, the most 
recent change at the bottom of the list is kind of fun.

CHANGES
=======

Wrapped sys.ps1, sys.ps2, and sys.ps3 in str(). (Thanks, Kieran
Holland.)

Fixed minor things found by PyChecker.

Changed locals to use __main__.__dict__ and added code to clean up the
namespace, making it as close to the regular Python environment as
possible. This solves the problem of pickling and unpickling instances
of classes defined in the shell.

Made shell.PasteAndRun() a little more forgiving when it finds a ps2
prompt line with no trailing space, such when you copy code from a web
page.

Improved autocomplete behavior by adding these to shell:
    self.AutoCompSetAutoHide(False)
    self.AutoCompStops(' .')

Added decor directory, decorator.py, stcDecor.py, and
stcConstants.py. These all serve the purpose of adding docstrings to
existing wxPython classes, in particular the wxStyledTextControl.

Added wrap.py, a command line utility for running a wxPython app with
additional runtime-tools loaded, such as PyCrust (the only tool at
this point).
---------------------------------------------------------------------

With the wrap utility you can run an existing wxPython program (as long as 
it has a wxApp subclass that doesn't require any __init__ parameters) and 
you'll automatically get a PyCrust frame with an `app` variable in the 
local namespace so you can interact with your app. Just run wrap.py from 
the directory containing your wxPython program and pass the name of your 
program as a command line arg, like this:

    wrap.py myProgram.py

or: wrap.py myProgam

or: python wrap.py myProgram.py

or: python wrap.py myProgram

or: ~/Code/PyCrust/wrap.py myProgam.py

or: C:\Code\PyCrust\wrap.py myProgram

Let me know how you like it. Also note that the autocomplete changes appear 
to be causing a problem on non-Linux platforms.

Hi Patrick,

I run win XP and tried testing the new changes and the crashes are
pretty nasty. After playing around with it for a while I found that the
exact line causing it was

self.AutoCompSetAutoHide(False)

in the config method of shell.py

Is it possible to change the code to something like this until the bug
gets fixed??

if wx.wxPlatform != '__WXMSW__':
    self.AutoCompSetAutoHide(False)

Now that I think about it... could it be my version of wxPython??? I run
2.3.3.1 unicode


Take care,

Raul

Sorry about the problems. This is a bug in wxPython that Robin has now
fixed, but the fix hasn't made it into a wxPython release yet. Since
this PyCrust feature will work fine in the next release of wxPython,
I'm reluctant to add a patch to the CVS version. But feel free to
patch your local copy. Unless you plan to stay on that older version
of wxPython, in which case I probably need to patch PyCrust for this
bug for version of wxPython at 2.4.0.2 or older. Let me know what you
think.
