I've been scripting in Maya, via mel for years now. Recently learning to Python, love it. Thing that's driving me nuts it the IDE. I'm using PythonWin right now and trying to find something better, mainly with this functionality:
In Maya's mel script editor window, it's split into two sections. Bottom window you can enter commands (where your script lives), top window gives results. The thing I'm really used to is highlighting X# of lines in the bottom window (little snippits from my script), and executing that selection, with instant feedback of the results on top. This really speeds my workflow. It seems completely missing (so far) in Python's IDE. I have to copy and paste from a script to the ide window to execute and see the results, or I have to make a bunch of "buffer scripts" with just the code snippetsI want to test in. Seems *really* clunky. Does anyone know of a scripting enviroment for Python that mimics what Maya's script editor has? Much appreciated. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
