0.9.7.9 (9/8/09) ------------------- Finalized the naming convention so that references to shell in the new "slices" shell are renamed to "sliceshell" (likewise, Shell becomes SlicesShell) Also, renamed the file "slices.py" to "sliceshell.py". Since my goal is to keep PySlices.py as the equivalent to PyCrust.py, I think this new convention makes the most sense... Now (Finally): shell.py contains the classes: Shell, ShellFacade, and ShellFrame sliceshell.py contains the classes: SlicesShell, SlicesShellFacade, and SlicesShellFrame crust.py contains: Crust and CrustFrame crustslices.py contains: CrustSlices and CrustSlicesFrame PyShell.py and PySlicesShell.py are the respective standalone shell apps PyCrust.py and PySlices.py are the respective apps that also include Filling frame.py etc. still continue to service both PyCrust and PySlices. 0.9.7.8 (9/8/09) ------------------- Added open/save abilities to PySlices (PyCrust remains the same). This uses a special format with extension .pyslices. A file, *.pyslices will contain a text header and also a line denoting the beginning of each new slice, naming the type of slice as well (grouping, input, output) All output is commented with a single '#' which is removed upon loading. This ensures that a well contstucted .pyslices file is also a valid python script! Added the ability to load an entire python file into a new Input slice with Ctrl-L Added the ability to load pyslices files from the command line. Split the functionality of crust.py (functioning for both PyCrust and PySlices) into crust.py (only PyCrust) and crustslices.py (only for PySlices). After revising the naming conventions: shell.py contains the classes: Shell, ShellFacade, and ShellFrame slice.py contains the classes: Shell, ShellFacade, and ShellFrame crust.py contains: Crust and CrustFrame crustslices.py contains: CrustSlices and CrustSlicesFrame PyShell.py and PySlicesShell.py are the respective standalone shell apps PyCrust.py and PySlices.py are the respective apps that also include Filling frame.py etc. still continue to service both PyCrust and PySlices. 0.9.7.7 (8/25/2009) (Current--Still Need to SVNAdd the new file PySlicesShell.py) ------------------- Added code to introspect.py to check for Enthought's "Traits" attributes. Added PySlicesShell.py. PySlices shell is PySlices without Filling and other crust attributes. Fixed a bug with Output_BG 0.9.7.6 (7/18/2009) ------------------- Made output have a slight-blue background Added a tutorial that can be disabled in Options->Startup. Added "Shell Mode" which uses >>> and ... markers for input slices and uses two returns for command execution Changed manual completion keybindings. Cleaned up keybinding help. Made Items in Options->Startup menu automatically save to the config file (since they don't affect anything until startup) Major code cleanup, removal of much dead code, shortening of very long lines, etc... 0.9.6.9 (7/9/2009) ------------------- Fixed Undo marker issues and a bug in selection overwrite. 0.9.6.8 (7/1/2009) ------------------- Merged changes with SVN trunk. 0.9.6.4 thru 0.9.6.6 (10/22/2008-4/27/2009) ------------------- Added magic.py to handle some very simple "magic" commands: Now the command: "f 1" will be re-interpreted as: "f(1)" The command: "f 1,2,3,4" will be interpreted as: f(1,2,3,4) Special commands "ls","cd", and "pwd" are interpreted separately Works with slices.py and shell.py Also fixed auto-indent magic. 0.9.6.1 thru 0.9.6.3 (10/21/2008) --------------------------------- Added PySlices (slices.py and PySlices.py), a modified version of PyCrust. PySlices is a "notebook interface" multi-line shell, ala Sage or Mathematica. It uses Scintilla markers extensively, with red for input and blue for output. Modified crust.py to use a switch so it can load either a Shell or a Slices_Shell 0.9.5 (12/23/2005) ------------------ Applied a series of enhancments by Franz Steinaeusler, Adi Sieker, and Sebastian Haase, up until their 7-31-2005 version. (Their next version broke some existing functionality, and added some confusing hacks, and I didn't feel that the incremental gains were worth the loss at that point so I stopped at 7-31-2005.) Their changes include the following: * The Autocomplete and Calltip windows can now be opened manually with Ctrl-Space and Ctrl-Shift-Space. * In the stand alone PyCrust app the various option settings, window size and position, and etc. are saved and restored at the next run. * Added a help dialog bound to the F1 key that shows the key bindings. * Added a new text completion function that suggests words from the history. Bound to Shift-Return. * F11 will toggle the maximized state of the frame. * switched to Bind() from wx.EVT_*(). * Display of line numbers can be toggled. * F12 toggles a "free edit" mode of the shell buffer. This mode is useful, for example, if you would like to remove some output or errors or etc. from the buffer before doing a copy/paste. The free edit mode is designated by the use of a red, non-flashing caret. * Ctrl-Shift-F will fold/unfold (hide/show) the selected lines. On top of these changes I (Robin Dunn) added the following: * General code cleanup and fixes. * Use wx.StandardPaths to determine the location of the config files. * Remove Orbtech attributions from the UI, they've been there long enough. * Use wx.SP_LIVE_UPDATE on crust and filling windows. * Extended the saving of the config info and other new features to the PyShell app too. Additionally, other apps that embed a PyCrust or a PyShell can pass their own wx.Config object and have the Py code save/restore its settings to/from there. * All of the classes with config info get an opportunity to save/load their own settings instead of putting all the save/load code in one place that then has to reach all over the place to do anything. * Enable editing of the startup python code, which will either be the file pointed to by PYTHONSTARTUP or a file in the config dir if PYTHONSTARTUP is not set in the environment. * Added an option to skip the running of the startup code when PyShell or PyCrust starts. * PyCrust adds a pp(item) function to the shell's namespace that pretty prints the item in the Display tab of the notebook. Added code to raise that tab when pp() is called. * Added an option for whether to insert text for function parameters when popping up the call tip. * Added Find and Find-Next functions that use the wx.FindReplaceDialog. 0.9.4 (1/25/2004 to //2004) ------------------------------ Removed wxd decorators in favor of new SWIG-generated docstrings. Removed docs tabs from crust interface: * wxPython Docs * wxSTC Docs Fixed Calltip tab refresh problem on Windows. shell.autoCompleteAutoHide added with default of False. Changed default namespace of Shell to __main__.__dict__, instead of an empty dictionary. 0.9.3 (9/25/2003 to 1/24/2004) ------------------------------ Fun and games with dynamic renaming. Details of any other changes were lost in the confusion. I'll try to do better in the future. 0.9.2 (5/3/2003 to 9/25/2003) ----------------------------- Changed to the new prefix-less "wx" package:: import wx instead of:: from wxPython import wx Fixed typo in ``PyWrap.py``:: if __name__ == '__main__': main(sys.argv) should have been:: if __name__ == '__main__': main() Added pretty-print Display tab to Crust, based on suggestion from Jason Whitlark. Improved ``Can*`` checks in ``EditWindow``, since STC is too lenient, particularly when it is set to read-only but returns True for CanPaste() (seems like an STC bug to me):: def CanCopy(self): """Return True if text is selected and can be copied.""" return self.GetSelectionStart() != self.GetSelectionEnd() def CanCut(self): """Return True if text is selected and can be cut.""" return self.CanCopy() and self.CanEdit() def CanEdit(self): """Return True if editing should succeed.""" return not self.GetReadOnly() def CanPaste(self): """Return True if pasting should succeed.""" return stc.StyledTextCtrl.CanPaste(self) and self.CanEdit() 0.9.1 (3/21/2003 to 5/2/2003) ----------------------------- PyCrust is dead! Long live Py! * Renamed ``PyCrust`` package to ``py``. * Moved code to wxPython's CVS repository. Fixed bug in ``introspect.py`` on introspecting objects occurring immediately after a secondary prompt, like this:: >>> l = [1, 2, 3] >>> for n in range(3): ... l. <-- failed to popup autocomplete list Added documentation files: * PyManual.txt * wxPythonManual.txt * wxPythonPackage.txt * wxPythonExamples.txt Added PyAlaMode and PyAlaCarte code editors. Major refactoring to support ``editor`` and ``shell`` from the same base. Renamed program files: * ``PyCrustApp.py`` to ``PyCrust.py`` * ``PyFillingApp.py`` to ``PyFilling.py`` * ``PyShellApp.py`` to ``PyShell.py`` * ``wrap.py`` to ``PyWrap.py`` Removed disabling of autocomplete for lists of 2000 items or more. The current implementation of wxSTC can now handle lists this big. Improved handling of ``sys.path`` to mimic the standard Python shell. 0.9 (2/27/2003 to 3/20/2003) ---------------------------- Added fontIncrease, fontDecrease, fontDefault signals, receivers and keybindings:: Ctrl+] Increase font size. Ctrl+[ Decrease font size. Ctrl+= Default font size. Continued enhancement of the decorator capability to provide better documentation and docstrings for wxPython classes and functions. Introduced new tabbed interface: * Namespace * Calltip * Session * Dispatcher * wxPython Docs * wxSTC Docs ``Filling.tree`` now expands tuples as well as lists. (It should have done this all along, I just never noticed this omission before.) Added this True/False test to all modules:: try: True except NameError: True = 1==1 False = 1==0 Added ``wxd`` directory with decoration classes. 0.8.2 (1/5/2003 to 2/26/2003) ----------------------------- 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 ``wxStyledTextCtrl``. 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). Flushed the clipboard Cut/Copy operations so that selections will exist in the clipboard even after PyCrust has been closed. Improved the suppression of docstrings for simple data types appearing in the namespace viewer. Better handling of autocompletion with numeric types; no autocompletion when typing a dot after an integer. If the autocompletion is desired, type a space before the dot:: func = 3 . More Filling!!! The namespace tree is now dynamically updated. 0.8.1 (12/20/2002 to 12/25/2002) -------------------------------- Improved keyboard handling with Autocomplete active. You can now use Enter as well as Tab to select an item from the list. Disabled autocomplete for lists of 2000 items or more. The current implementation of wxSTC can't handle lists this big. Changed ``filling`` to always display docstrings for objects. This is useful for objects whose docstrings have been decorated, rather than coming directly from the source code. (Hmmm. Sounds like someone is doing some decorating. I wonder where that would be helpful? ) Fixed handling of icon. Added ``images.py`` file. 0.8 (10/29/2002 to 12/16/2002) ------------------------------ Added "help" to startup banner info. Made all ``wx`` and ``stc`` imports explicit. No more ``import *``. Replaced use of the ``wx`` module's ``true`` and ``false`` with Python's ``True`` and ``False``. Changed ``introspect.getRoot()`` to use ``tokenize`` module. This does a slightly better job than the previous parsing routine and the code is clearer. Improved handling of whitespace and empty types during introspection. Fixed cut/copy clipboard problem under Linux. (Robin Dunn rocks!!!) Added shell.about() which works like this:: >>> shell.about() PyCrust Version: 0.8 Shell Revision: 1.80 Interpreter Revision: 1.15 Python Version: 2.2.2 wxPython Version: 2.3.3.1 Platform: linux2 Added copy plus and paste plus to shell menu. Moved shell menu from ``shell.py`` to ``shellmenu.py``. Added ``sys.stdin.readlines()`` support. Added ``time.sleep()`` in ``readline()`` and ``OnIdle()`` event handler to free up the CPU. 0.7.2 (2/22/2002 to 8/27/2002) ------------------------------ Tweaked ``getAttributeNames()`` to pick up a few more attributes:: '__bases__', '__class__', '__dict__', '__name__', 'func_closure', 'func_code', 'func_defaults', 'func_dict', 'func_doc', 'func_globals', 'func_name' Added a tests directory and unit tests. Improved support for empty types in the shell: ``[]``, ``()`` and ``{}`` as far as when call tips and autocompletion are available. Added support for the other triple string - ``''''''``. Refactored ``introspect.py`` to improve testability. Improved call tips for unbound methods by leaving the "self" parameter, since unbound methods require an instance be passed. Fixed call tip bug where a tip was displayed when a "(" was typed after an object that wasn't callable. Fixed ``getAllAttributeNames`` when ``str(object)`` fails. Added brace highlighting. (Thank you, Kevin Altis.) Fixed problem displaying unicode objects in ``PyFilling``. Changed how ``filling.py`` checks for expandable objects. Lists are now expandable objects. Made the key handling more robust when there is an active text selection that includes text prior to the last primary prompt. Thanks to Raul Cota for pointing this out. Fixed wxSTC problem with brace highlighting and non-us keyboards. (Thank you for the patch, Jean-Michel Fauth.) Added ``busy = wxBusyCursor()`` to key points in ``shell`` and ``filling``. Added ``OnCloseWindow`` handler to ``ShellFrame`` and ``CrustFrame``. Default to ``SetWrapMode(1)`` for shell and namespace viewer. Added ``shell.wrap()`` and ``shell.zoom()``. Added autoCompleteKeys hooks for Raul Cota. Cleaned up various little key handling bugs. Changed input methods to get values from shell, rather than dialog boxes. Renamed ``readIn`` to ``readline`` and ``readRaw`` to ``raw_input``. 0.7.1 (12/12/2001 to 2/21/2002) ------------------------------- Fixed ``OnChar()`` issues effecting European keyboards, as reported by Jean-Michel Fauth. Fixed ``introspect.py`` issue with xmlrpc objects reported by Kevin Altis. Fixed some introspect/PyFilling issues with regard to Python 2.2. Fixed font background color as reported by Keith J. Farmer. (Thanks) Fixed problem with call tips and autocompletion inside multiline commands as report by Kevin Altis. Improved ``OnKeyDown`` handling of cut/copy/paste operations based on feedback from Syver Enstad. (Thanks) Added a ``shell.help()`` method to display some help info. Changed sort of items in the namespace viewer to case insensitive. Changed ``attributes.sort(lambda x, y: cmp(x.upper(), y.upper()))`` in advance of an upcoming fix to an autocompletion matching bug in wxSTC. Improved support for ZODB by allowing namespace drilldown into BTrees. Added ``shell.PasteAndRun()`` to support pasting multiple commands into the shell from the clipboard. Ctrl+Shift+V or v. Enter now always processes a command (or copies down a previous one.) To insert a line break, press Ctrl+Enter. Escape key clears the current, unexecuted command. History retrieval changed to replace current command. Added new keys to insert from history - Shift+Up and Shift+Down. Better call tips on objects with ``__call__`` methods. Improved call tip positioning calculation. 0.7 (10/15/2001 to 12/11/2001) ------------------------------ Changed how command history retrieval functions work. Added Alt-P, Alt-N as keybindings for Retrieve-Previous, Retrieve-Next. Added full support for multi-line commands, similar to IDLE. Changed ``introspect.getAttributeNames()`` to do a case insensitive sort. Changed Cut/Copy/Paste to deal with prompts intelligently. Cut and Copy remove all prompts. Paste can handle prompted or not-prompted text. Added ``CopyWithPrompts()`` method attached to Ctrl-Shift-C for those times when you really do want all the prompts left intact. Improved handling of the shell's read-only zone. Changed ``CrustFrame.__init__`` parameter spec to include all parameters allowed by a ``wxFrame``. Changed ``FillingText`` to be read-only. Renamed ``PyCrust.py`` to ``PyCrustApp.py`` to eliminate package/module name conflicts that kept you from doing ``from PyCrust import shell`` inside files located in the ``PyCrust`` directory. Renamed ``PyFilling.py`` to ``PyFillingApp.py`` and ``PyShell.py`` to ``PyShellApp.py`` to maintain consistency. Removed the ``__date__`` property from all modules. Fixed bug in ``introspect.getCallTip()``, reported by Kevin Altis. 0.6.1 (9/19/2001 to 10/12/2001) ------------------------------- Changed ``Shell.run()`` to always position to the end of existing text, as suggested by Raul Cota. Changed ``introspect.getAllAttributeNames()`` to break circular references in ``object.__class__``, which occurs in Zope/ZODB extension classes. Changed ``filling.FillingTree.getChildren()`` to introspect extension classes. Fixed minor bugs in ``introspect.getCallTip()`` that were interfering with call tips for Zope/ZODB extension class methods. In preparation for wxPython 2.3.2, added code to fix a font sizing problem. Versions of wxPython prior to 2.3.2 had a sizing bug on Win platform where the font was 2 points larger than what was specified. Added a hack to ``introspect.getAllAttributeNames()`` to "wake up" ZODB objects that are asleep - in a "ghost" state. Otherwise it returns incomplete info. 0.6 (8/21/2001 to 9/12/2001) ---------------------------- Added ``PyFilling.py`` and ``filling.py``. ``PyShell.py`` and ``PyFilling.py`` can now be run standalone, as well as ``PyCrust.py``. Added ``crust.py`` and moved some code from ``PyCrust.py`` to it. Added command history retrieval features submitted by Richie Hindle. Changed ``shell.write()`` to replace line endings with OS-specific endings. Changed ``shell.py`` and ``interpreter.py`` to use ``os.linesep`` in strings having hardcoded line endings. Added ``shell.redirectStdin()``, ``shell.redirectStdout()`` and ``shell.redirectStderr()`` to allow the surrounding app to toggle requests that the specified ``sys.std*`` be redirected to the shell. These can also be run from within the shell itself, of course. The shell now adds the current working directory "." to the search path:: sys.path.insert(0, os.curdir) Added support for distutils installations. 0.5.4 (8/17/2001 to 8/20/2001) ------------------------------ Changed default font size under Linux to:: 'size' : 12, 'lnsize' : 10, Changed ``Shell`` to expect a parameter referencing an Interpreter class, rather than an intepreter instance, to facilitate subclassing of Interpreter, which effectively broke when the Editor class was eliminated. Fixed ``PyCrustAlaCarte.py``, which had been broken by previous changes. Created ``InterpreterAlaCarte`` class as an example for use in the demo. Split ``PyCrust.py`` into ``PyCrust.py`` and ``PyShell.py`` in anticipation of ``PyFilling.py``. 0.5.3 (8/16/2001) ----------------- Added patch to ``PyCrust.py`` to fix wxPython bug:: wxID_SELECTALL = NewId() # This *should* be defined by wxPython. 0.5.2 (8/14/2001 to 8/15/2001) ------------------------------ Shortened module names by dropping "PyCrust" as a prefix. Changed ``version`` to ``VERSION`` in ``version`` module. Added Options menu to PyCrust application. Eliminated the Editor class (and editor module) by merging with Shell. This means that Shell "is a" wxStyledTextCtrl rather than "has a". There just wasn't enough non-gui code to justify the separation. Plus, Shell will be much easier for gui toolkits/designers to deal with now. 0.5.1 (8/10/2001 to 8/14/2001) ------------------------------ Added ``introspect`` module. Moved some functionality from ``PyCrustInterp`` to ``introspect``. Changed ``introspect.getRoot()`` to no longer remove whitespace from the command. This was a remnant of a previous approach that, when left as part of the current approach, turned out to be a really bad thing. Changed ``introspect.getRoot()`` to allow commands of ``''``, ``""``, ``""""""``, ``[]``, ``()``, and ``{}`` to pass through. This allows you to type them, followed by a dot, and get autocomplete options on them. Changed ``introspect.getRoot()`` to identify some situations where strings shouldn't be considered roots. For example:: >>> import PyCrust # To illustrate the potential problem. >>> len('PyCrust.py') Typing the dot at the end of "PyCrust" in the second line above should NOT result in an autocompletion list because "PyCrust" is part of a string in this context, not a reference to the PyCrust module object. Similar reasoning applies to call tips. For example:: >>> len('dir(') Typing the left paren at the end of "dir" should NOT result in a call tip. Both features now behave properly in the examples given. However, there is still the case where whitespace precedes the potential root and that is NOT handled properly. For example:: >>> len('this is a dir(') and:: >>> len('This is PyCrust.py') More code needs to be written to handle more complex situations. Added ``locals=None`` parameter to ``Shell.__init__()``. Added support for magic attribute retrieval. Users can change this with:: >>> shell.editor.autoCompleteIncludeMagic = 0 Added the ability to set filters on auto completion to exclude attributes prefixed with a single or double underscore. Users can exclude one or the other or both with:: >>> shell.editor.autoCompleteExcludeSingle = 1 >>> shell.editor.autoCompleteExcludeDouble = 1 0.5 (8/8/2001) -------------- Mostly just a final version change before creating a release. 0.4 (8/4/2001 to 8/7/2001) -------------------------- Changed version/revision handling. Fixed bugs. 0.3 (8/2/2001 to 8/3/2001) -------------------------- Removed lots of cruft. Added lots of docstrings. Imported to CVS repository at SourceForge. Added call tips. 0.2 (7/30/2001 to 8/2/2001) --------------------------- Renamed several files. Added command autocompletion. Added menus to PyCrust.py: File, Edit and Help. Added sample applications: ``PyCrustAlaCarte.py``, ``PyCrustAlaMode.py``, and ``PyCrustMinimus.py``. 0.1 (7/1/2001 to 7/19/2001) --------------------------- Added basic syntax coloring much like Boa. Added read-only logging much like IDLE. Can retrieve a previous command by putting the cursor back on that line and hitting enter. Stdin and raw_input operate properly so you can now do ``help()`` and ``license()`` without hanging. Redefined "quit", "exit", and "close" to display a better-than-nothing response. Home key honors the prompt. Created SourceForge account, but nothing was posted. In the beginning, there was pie... (7/1/2001) --------------------------------------------- Blame it all on IDLE, Boa and PythonWin. I was using all three, got frustrated with their dissimilarities, and began to let everyone know how I felt. At the same time, Scintilla looked like an interesting tool to build a shell around. And while I didn't receive much in the way of positive feedback, let alone encouragement, I just couldn't let go of the idea of a Scintilla-based Python shell. Then the PythonCard project got to the point where they were talking about including a shell in their development environment. That was all the incentive I needed. PyCrust had to happen...
