PdbTextMateSupport Display source code in TextMate while debugging with pdb. This module is used to hook up pdb_, the python debugger, with TextMate_, an advanced text and programming editor for Mac OS, enabling it to display the debugged source code during a pdb_ session. .. _pdb: http://docs.python.org/lib/module-pdb.html .. _TextMate: http://macromates.com/ After downloading and unpacking the package, you should install the helper module using:: $ python setup.py install Next you need to hook up pdb_ with this module by add the following to your ``.pdbrc``:: from PdbTextMateSupport import preloop, precmd pdb.Pdb.preloop = preloop pdb.Pdb.precmd = precmd The easiest way to do this is to use the provided script:: $ pdbtmsupport enable Alternatively you can also do it manually. The ``.pdbrc`` is located in your home folder and possibly needs to be created first. You may also use the supplied sample configuration file for pdb_ to enable the hook like:: $ cp pdbrc.sample ~/.pdbrc Afterwards TextMate_ should get started automatically whenever you enter a debug session. The current source line will be displayed simultaneously while stepping through the code. However, having the cursor moved automatically within that source file is not always very obvious, so you might want to use the "Highlight current line" feature, which can be enabled in the "General" tab in TextMate's preferences. http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/PdbTextMateSupport/ Andreas Zeidler b5bafee2f6ad26339ff53547f80309f6442f82cb 0.3
