PyPad 2.7.1 Update 4

2011-06-22 Thread Jon Dowdall

Hi All,

I'm pleased to announce that PyPad 2.7.1 (Update 4), a simple python 
environment for the iPad / iPhone, is now available in the iTunes 
store. It can be found at: 
http://itunes.apple.com/au/app/pypad/id428928902?mt=8


Update 4 adds the ability to create multiple modules and import them 
into one another.  The documentation is lagging a bit but the 
functionality can be found in the action menu of the accessory bar.


Further updates planed include:
Updated documentation
Improving cursor interaction in interactive mode
Providing access to interactive mode command history
Adding iOS specific modules
Syntax highlighting
and more...

Regards,

Jon Dowdall

python on iPad (PyPad)

2011-04-08 Thread Jon Dowdall
Hi All,

Sorry for the blatant advertising but hope some of you may be interested 
to know that I've created an iPad application containing the python 
interpreter and a simple execution environment. It's available in iTunes 
at http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pypad/id428928902?mt=8#

I wanted to have python available 'on the go' without carrying a laptop. 
The current implementation is based on my need to test simple python 
functions in an isolated environment. I hope to add more iOS specific 
capabilities if there is enough interest.

Enjoy...

Jon Dowdall

Thanks for the great feedback.

An updated version, that has some minor GUI improvements and allows the 
python code to be transferred via iTunes, is awaiting approval.

Hope to get to some of the other items you mention as time permits :-)

Cheers,

Jon
