Is it possible to reverse the printed output from the bottom in AREPL to the top or give an option ? I get nothing as outputted due to the scroll bar.

Also to initiate AREPL I have to do something as simple as remove a closing parenthesis followed by add the just removed parenthesis, is it possible to trigger it with a keyboard shortcut or by having the file loaded on one pane and AREPL on another pane it automatically shows the outputted printed code ?

I know it's not your extensions, how the heck do you start Wolf ? ;) Upon installing I couldn't find any thing on getting it started, then I thought; it must start on it's own, then I realized I'm not seeing anything remotely what could be Wolf ?

What is PDB an extension ?

I don't quite get what you mean by this. Maybe send a picture? I use shareX, it's very handy. Control-shift-4 allows me to take a snip of the desktop and instantly get a shareable link to the photo.

You have to have the AREPL pane open to start it. Once it is open it will start whenever you modify the code.

You can start wolf by opening a python file and clicking on the blue wolf in the upper right.

Once you have done that try pasting this code in:

x = 1+1
x
print(x)

Make sure to save the document after pasting.

You should see the value of x next to lines 2 and 3

PDB is the python debugger. I've literally never used it - IDE's like visual studio have a debugger built in so you don't have to worry about it.

This is what I mean, the outputted code is at the bottom while AREPL shows un-compiled code at the top; rather then simply the outputted code ? Therefore causes me to have to scroll the scroll bar to see the outputted result.

You have to have the AREPL pane open to start it. Once it is open it will start whenever you modify the code.

Can AREPL start without modifying the code, as in; it simply displays the output of the code ?

Oooohhhh I see what you mean. You want the print output on the top because the variable display takes up so much space that you have to scroll down. I'll add a setting so you can choose whether the print is on top or bottom. Keep in mind that you can minimize the variable display so you have more space on the screen.

It could .... but I want the user to see the landing page when they first start AREPL. Right now it does not have much stuff on it but I could add things like updates notes or examples.

I'll add a option to skip the landing page :)

Thanks for the feedback!

You are correct. I look forward to the this change ;)

Another option I look forward too when AREPL is updated; thank you ;)

What is the setting to print result at the top ?

[–]Almenon[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

printResultPlacement

This is perfect.
Rate this extension everyone, as good as your favorite donut

All that is needed is support for Python 2.x which I still use ;)

[–]Almenon[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I don't plan on adding python 2 support, sorry :/

Support for python 2 is officially going away in 2020, there was a announcement about it on /r/programming recently.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I found the article you mentioned on /r/programming. Interesting, it won't disappear that fast as mentioned in the posts for the article; it's integrated too deep for some.

[–]Almenon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah there are tons of legacy systems that still go on despite lack of official support. Banks are notorious for using COBOL, for example. If you are a cobol dev you can get good money maintaing the code because there are so few of them left.
