So in an attempt to finally get rid of the potential morass that
further work on PyOXIDE could be, I'm release a very early version of
ScrIDE, a generic, extensible, scripting IDE. There are several
major differences between the two - first, ScrIDE is designed to
support multiple scripting languages, and to be able to do that, the
second different is that _everything_ is run in separate processes,
which means that you can easily select from different versions of
python (or even easily pick between python and pythonw). Finally, it
is highly extensible (all sorts of things controlled by various
property lists which can be overridden and extended, including adding
menu commands that pipe text to/from other processes).
The debugger currently does not support breakpoints (but stepping,
examination after exceptions, console commands "in context", etc...
work), and some of the other browsing/introspection capabilities of
PyOXIDE aren't present either yet (though you can get doc strings for
simple objects). Still, it is able to do things like step through
tkinter programs, for example...
