Ped phone programmers editor 2.17beta python
Ped is a text editor written using Python for S60. It may be used to edit any text file but was created mainly to write/edit Python scripts on the phone. It provides tools that make this task easier.
The main text editor features are:
multi document interface,
flexible file browser to open files at any location,
easy editing with page up/down functionality,
find string / find all functionality,
selectable font and color,
works on all S60 platform editions.
Additional Python IDE features include:
built-in Python Shell with IDLE-like features,
sophisticated Auto-Complete feature,
smart auto indentation,
easy execution,
automatically moves to line which caused an exception,
Code Browser.
Ped is distributed under the terms of the BSD License.
2.17 changes
Changes:
- Filter option in file browser (use *-key for fast access). Pops up a text query and limits the list of files and directories to entries containing the entered text in their names.
- Ask for arguments option. After enabling in settings asks for script arguments before execution. The arguments are then available to the script in sys.argv (standard for all Python scripts).
- New way of asking what do to with the changes when a file window is closed. The old way was to first ask whether the changes should be saved using a OK/Cancel query. Pressing OK caused the file to be saved and the window closed. Cancel poped up a second query asking whether the changes should be discarded and the window closed or nothing should be done. Now a single popup menu is displayed with Save/Discard options. Cancelling the menu does nothing (window stays opened). This is much more intuitive.
- Shortkeys used to move the cursor to the beginning/end of line (green+left/right) are no longer repeatable (which didn't make sense anyway). Now you can start typing immediately after pressing the shortkey.
python should be installed inorder to run it
