In that case, you're using the wrong IDE. I run the Python interpeter inside of Emacs. I edit my code in another buffer. In the source code buffer, I hit M-C-x, and the current version of the function I'm currently editing gets sent to the interpreter. Reload is pretty easy as well - C-c RETURN, and the module I'm editing gets reloaded. <mike -- Mike Meyer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
