[Pythonmac-SIG] Toxic Edit / Cocoa 'IDE'

[Jonathan Wight]

For anyone who's interested there's a new version of 'ToxicEdit' (a very
basic Cocoa Python IDE). It's at <http://toxicsoftware.com/ToxicEdit/>.
Changes include: totally rewritten after an accident involving the 'cp'
command, gui tidy ups, errors from Python are now display (so you're not
coding blind), fixes a problem with Mac OS X shared library importing where
running this code twice would cause a crash: "import string; print
string.split('foo bar');".

That's about it. Oh and source code (such as it is) is available too.

Hey Steve, you might want to use ToxicEdit to play about with Python on OSX
as you'd be running the Python scripts directly in the Cocoa process
(ToxicEdit doesn't fork - it currently uses PyRun_String() to execute the
Python scripts). It might help with the bundle problem?
