Wish list for next release
-
First of all, great job with 2.0, it's a great update, and everything I expected.
I don't know if you're planning to work on an editorial update next or pythonista, or maybe something else, but I thought I'd start a thread where people can post their thoughts about what should go into the next update.
I think for the next update, it would be helpful to just provide more modules for use. This would be a good contrast to 2.0, which updates the editor in a lot of ways. The top 5 modules I'd like to see the most are:
- Scipy
- OpenCV
- The
photosmodule but for videos - scikit-image
- sickit-learn
I think this alone would be a significant update to pythonista, adding a lot of functionality.
I'm curious to hear what other people want to see most from the next update.
-
Pandas would be very useful.
-
Python 3.5
Edit: Fixed in Pythonista3 version 3.0 (300001) (currently in beta).
-
I love the way the additional keyboard has changed in the new Pythonista. Everything is in one place. I can type really fast!
Furthermore, I wish the escape \ key (backslash) also be included in the list. The ability to add \ by long pressing + or ' would be fantastic. -
@ShunS, backslash \ is available by swipe-up from slash / on the extended keyboard
-
@Olaf Thank you for your reply :) Unfortunately, I still cannot see backslash \ from long pressing + > /. I'm using iPhone 5. Maybe it depends on the screen size?
-
Try swipe up instead of long press.
-
@ccc I still cannot do it...
I do the following, but nothing happens.
[Tap +] > [/ is displayed, along with % and etc.] > [swipe up on /] -
One of the things I would like to see in the next release is an extended font concept. Not just name and size (tuple). But other font attrs such as color and other attributes a family has to offer. But it's quite a change as this would be a font object, not just a tuple. It's a small thing, but will be part of the evolution of the ui module
-
@ShunS This only works on an iPad keyboard, where the slash has its own button. I'm looking on my iPhone 5 right now, it doesn't work.
-
@Webmaster4o Thank you very much! Now everything is clear. That's it for my request. Can't wait to see other wishlist entries :)
-
Release 2.0 is wonderful! Thanks a lot! I'm really enjoying the tabbed editing since I usually work with several files at once.
If it were Christmas again I would wish for:
- support for arbitrary file names including names without extension and dot files
- better support for external keyboards (I usually work with a Bluetooth keyboard), e.g. paging up/down through the code, switching between tabs, opening files, etc.
- support of the action button on the iPhone (or is there after all I ust could not find it?).
-
@marcus67 the action button on iPhone is with the rename and find buttons, tap the file name ;)
-
@Webmaster4o Thanks! I knew it must be somewhere! :-)
-
A Today widget would be excellent.
-
@disorientedp Ole has tried that already, but he said that because of the RAM limitations imposed on today widgets you wouldn't be able to do anything useful with it.
-
@dgelessus , even if we can write out own widgets, would be nice to have one written in objective c by omz. Could provide some forum updates, url launching etc... Just a idea. Oh, other info it could provide is the size of the home dir and I am sure some other useful information
-
-pip support (StaSh is great, but native support would be huge)
-barring the ability to install packages with C-extension dependencies--
+1 scikit-learn
+1 scipy
+1 pandas -
@damian native pip support would never get through apple review. It's downloading external code.
-
I'd love to see the ability to restrict keychain access with a passcode or Touch ID.
