Hi,

Wingware has released version 5.0.6 of Wing IDE, our cross-platform 
integrated
development environment for the Python programming language.

Wing IDE includes a professional quality code editor with vi, emacs, 
visual studio,
and other key bindings, auto-completion, call tips, goto-definition, 
find uses, refactoring,
context-aware auto-editing, a powerful graphical debugger, version 
control, unit testing,
search, and many other features.  For details see http://wingware.com/

Changes in this minor release include:

* New auto-editing operation for starting a new block when ':' is 
pressed while a range
   of lines is selected. This also auto-enters 'except:' if 'try' is 
then entered.
* Offer completion on argument names in a def
* New Editor > Block Comment Style preference option to use PEP8 style 
indented '# '
   for commenting out code
* On OS X, Wing no longer quits when the last window is closed, to match 
the standard
   for Mac applications
* Restart correctly after downloading patches
* Pick up changes made in the debug dialog when debugging a named entry 
point
* Avoid hiding file selection auto-completer popup too soon
* Set sys.path[0] correctly in Python Shell on OS X and Linux
* Fix cleanup after auto-invocation that spans multiple lines
* About 15 other bug fixes
