Hi Detlev,

Sorry to have the question asked.  I only now see that the combobox in 
the local variables window is showing the stack trace...  Should have 
paid more attention to it... :-(

Hi,

that is a neat installation procedure! However, didn't you miss the 
installation steps for QScintilla, sip and the QScintilla Python bindings?

Source tab in debug viewer window

Hi,

I know it's possible to compose your own edit and debug profiles to see 
more/less windows when in one of those modes (see Settings | View 
Profiles...).  For instance, in the Debug Profile, you can also select 
the Project-Viewer.

However, I was wondering if it is also possible to only select one or 
more tabs from the Project viewer and drag it to the Debug viewer.  This 
way, you optimise the space available in the IDE when in debug mode 
(otherwise, quite a big part of the IDE is taken up by the Project 
viewer, if you also want to see that view in the debug mode).

My intention is to be able to also see the project files in the debug 
mode, because the tabs on top of the editor are quickly "full" when 
debugging and you can only guess where a file is in the tabbed editor, 
using the left/right arrow to cycle through the different tabs.

Shell language not supported

Hi,

I'm using 4.3.0 RC3 and I get this strange behaviour in the shell window.

 >>> x = 1
 >>> print x
1
 >>> startX = 1
Shell language "= 1" not supported.

Any variable prefixed with "start" seems to cause this. I'm don't know 
if it was doing this before RC3.

Thanks,
Zulq.

How to use PyLint? + some requests for enhancements

Hi Eric developers,
first of all thank you very much for the excellent IDE.
I had mentioned it as most recommended IDE in
http://openopt.org/About

Could you answer how to use PyLint plugin? I had asked it in 
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2008-May/491967.html, then 
I had downloaded it (today, with latest Eric 4.2.5) as zip-file, I had 
installed it (both operations via Eric GUI), still I have only 2 options 
in Project -> Check: syntax and indentations (even afetr Eric restart).
I have Linux KUBUNTU 8.10, and same operation doesn't work with Eric 
obtained from aptitude (soft updates channel).

Let me also mention some words about Eric enhancements:

1) first of all, it's very inconvenient to scroll file tabs. 
Unfortunately, mouse wheel doesn't work for the operation, it would be 
very nice to have this working.

2) when "debug" is invoked, Debug-Viewer shows (by default) 1st tab of 
the window (file brawser), while I have to switch to 3rd tab (Local 
variables). I had done the operation zillions times!! I hope you'll 
change default (1st) tab to "Local variables".

3) I had deal with MATLAB, and I have to confess they have MUCH better 
handling of bugs and warnings than Eric IDE. Eric has bug image, that is 
binded to a certain line of code, that isn't showed all the time 
(sometimes it requires much time for scrolling a big file to locate the 
line of code marked with bug). MATLAB has slim horizontal lines that are 
placed in 0-100% of showed edit window height, so it doesn't matter

MATLAB way of handling bugs and warnings

Let me accompany it with graphic example, see this 5-min demo from 
MATLAB devs (you could start viewing from 3rd minute)

Errors in the 'logparser' tutorial for eric4

Hi there

Nirav Dani kindly provides in his site
(http://myjoomla.gevawebsolutions.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=37:python-ides&catid=10:python&Itemid=40)
a guide to the install of eric4. He has linked a tutorial I made, but he
states that 'Beware: the tutorial is not completely error free'.

Could you Nirav -or someone who has also found about it- a hint to where
the errors are?
I could then correct the tutorial in order to get a better stuff for the
people needing it.

Thanks in advance.

Jaime
