Dear all, 

I have started dabbling with web2py since a few weeks. Created several 
simple apps of my own and quite happy with it as a web framework.   I have 
the following questions, to which I could not find a satisfactory answer 
within the mailing list. I would be very much grateful if someone can help 
me on these. 

1. I liked very much to have the convenience of an IDE (especially the 
debugger/code-completion features.  However, the way the whole package 
works makes me prefer to work with the online editor/debugger system. The 
Debugger is quite adequate for the purpose. However, what I could not 
figure out is how to get code completion in the online editor. There is a 
discussion about an editor called 'Amy' in this list a few years ago. 
However, I did not find any information about how to get it going in the 
current version of web2py. I tried adding 

editor = Amy

(Also with different capitalization like AMY, amy); but every time my 
editor window is empty! (obviously it does not work this way). 

I also tried adding 

TEXT_EDITOR = 'amy'

at the end of 0.py  file. It has no impact. 

Can you help me how to set the proper editor with code completion on 
web2py. 

2. What is your recommended way of getting web2py auto-completion to work 
with an IDE (I use Wing IDE  - it's web site has some information 
https://wingware.com/doc/howtos/web2py but this is not complete (which 
modules should I import in addition to db to get full web2py system to 
autocomplete?). Again, there are many old threads in this list on this - 
but I could not find a methods that works easily with the current 
version(s) of web2py. 

Thank you very much in advance. 

Assela
