Atom editor question
#1
It's time for me to renew my license with PyCharm.
I have decided to make an Ernest effort to use Atom editor instead.

I just installed atom, and the script package. I have a package loaded and am in developer mode.
Now I want to run my script, but don't have a command window showing. What's the sequence to
run a script?

Why don't you just use Community Edition of Pycharm? Sans remote debugging, yiu have most of the features.

I tried Atom for a while - for different reasons - and I can't say I liked it very much.
Test everything in a Python shell (iPython, Azure Notebook, etc.)
  • Someone gave you an advice you liked? Test it - maybe the advice was actually bad.
  • Someone gave you an advice you think is bad? Test it before arguing - maybe it was good.
  • You posted a claim that something you did not test works? Be prepared to eat your hat.

There is Ctrl+Shif+b for script package or for Atom runner Alt+R.
There are several  terminal packages.

I usually don't use these at all.
Here a screenshot,so on Windows i use cmder with ptpython as REPL.
Same setup for for Linux and usually Fish as shell and ptpython
AquaSnap(free) for easier tiling of windows.
Screenshot of split screen web-development.

Thanks snippsat

I've been using cmder since you suggested it a month or so back. Like it very much.

I like cmndr inside IDE!

It's a tad of a late reply, but I maintain the "Termination" terminal plugin for Atom: https://atom.io/packages/termination (assuming you're still looking for a terminal package). You can just launch it and use it like any other terminal/command prompt.


I need to try cmndr, thanks snippsat!
OS: Arch
Editor: Atom with Material Syntax UI and the Termination terminal plugin
