A notebook interface for wxpython
Project description
pynotebook
==========
Introduction
------------
Pynotebook is a an interactive shell for python, similar to the python
command line but much nicer to work with. Noteboks can contain python
code together with output and documentation. Nootebooks are a pleasent
way to develop python code and to document and store your ideas.
The "notebook" concept originally appeared with the program
Mathematica and became famous for python with the iPython/Jupyter
project. Unlike iPython, pynotebook does not need a webbrowser, c
extensions or anything except python and wx. Pynotebook runs out of
the box and therefore is easy to embed and distribute.
Most notable features of pynotebook are:
- syntax highlighting
- command completion (tab-key)
- builtin graphics
- matplotlib plotting
- BSD-license
Pynotebook can be used as stand alone application (pynb) or as a
library in wx programs.
There are a couple of demo applications:
- the pynb application
- a plotting demo
- a notebook interface to gnu r
The later demonstrates how to completely modify the notebook. It uses
rpy2 for interfacing gnu r and pygments for colorization.
Installation:
------------
Do in a console:
python ./setup.py build
and then as root:
python ./setup.py install
This will install the pynb application and the pynotebook module.
To open a notebook:
pynb demo/ball.pyb
