[Bug 1655800] Re: Better REPL

 

BTW: in your case it might be a problem of Jython version:
- Sikuli before 1.1.1 uses 2.5
- 1.1.1+ use 2.7

Title:
  Better REPL

Status in Sikuli:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  I have found the Sikuli interactive interpreter to be a powerful tool,
  both for experimenting with code snippets as I am building scripts and
  as a testing tool in its own right.  That said, it's often rather...
  primitive...  It could be much better.

  Something like https://github.com/jonathanslenders/ptpython.git would
  be quite awesome.  I have tried loading it in and, once all the
  dependencies were made available, it almost works (I think.)

  It ends up choking when it tries to import termios and can't find it.
  Which I find to be a bit confusing since when I check the jython docs,
  it's supposed to include a termios module...  So either I'm misreading
  something, or maybe the jython bundle included with Sikuli just needs
  to have that bit included.  Regardless, if someone who knows more
  about Java and Jython than I do can spare a few minutes to look at it,
  it might just work.

  Alternatively, there are a few other improved Python REPLs that might
  drop in and function.  Something that handles history and completion a
  bit better would take the interactive interpreter from a mildly useful
  debugging and small-test tool to a pretty good interactive script
  development environment.
