Python 3.x Progress Update
-
I noticed this in 09 but it still seems to stay in 10. When I type the first symbol in the console, the auto-complete window is shown with a little offset, that makes some letters unreadable. However, when I type the next symbol, everything's fine. I'm using an iPod 5 with iOS 8.4. Here is the screenshot of the issue.

@Leva7 Thanks, I have to admit that I didn't really test this on a 4 inch device so far, but I can reproduce the problem here.
-
@omz Also, I'd love if you would synchronize the sound of the buttons above the keyboard with the system settings or add a switch to turn it off. It's very odd and a little annoying when the system keyboard is silent but the extra buttons are "ticking".
-
@Leva7 I'll add a setting for that. It's unfortunately not possible to use the system setting.

Still accepting new beta testers? I've applied but not yet been accepted. Excited to try this! I've been wanting 3 forever 😊

so has my friend. Normally new ones are sent out at every new beta release, but he hasn't gotten it in the last two releases.
-
@Webmaster4o I've actually checked the signups an hour ago or so, and I've added everyone on the list (I've also added about 100 people yesterday). Could you ask your friend to check his spam folder or send me his email address privately, so I can check if he's on the list?
-
No, he hasn't got it. I'll have him resubmit.
-
@omz I also applied for beta testing some days ago using Google Forms, but neither have I received an invitation. I have just re-applied.
We use Python 3 as main programming language for our EE, math and physics grades (since 2010) so I have a high interest in the new Pythonista with Python 3.x support.
-
Just wanted to chime in and say thanks! Just got the beta and it's great! I've been wanting this ever since I learned Python could be interpreted on iOS, and this is a lovely implementation of it.
-
@Webmaster4o @jmas I've just sent invites to these email addresses (I've obfuscated them, but I hope you're able to tell if yours is on the list):
ni███████es@gmaill.com
p█.t█.g█@gmaill.com
j█████e@gmaill.com

Hi omz,
same issue here: Applied for the beta a few days ago, but I'm not on the list (nor did I receive a testflight invitation).
Unlucky me :/ -
@omz Invitation received, thanks!
-
@omz I believe his is the second one. I'll ask if he got it.
-
@omz really 2 ll's in "gmaill" ?
-
@MartinPacker No, I think that's a mistake.
-
@omz By the way, how about that keyboard dismiss? The way it is now is not so convenient since it actually makes you scroll the code and lose the position. A button or something like that would be great :) Is that a possibility or you've completely switched to swiping down?
-
@Leva7 I think I'll keep it the way it is. It's pretty difficult to find a place for a "dismiss keyboard" button on such a small screen.
-
I just registered here after seeing this thread.
I am a new python programmer and am - right now - shunning 2.7 as I am starting to learn python on 3.xThis is the best news ever and I am anciously awaiting the full release.
Best,

@omz A few suggestions regarding the new autocomplete feature:
- When the user has fully typed a suggestion out by hand, then make Enter behave like normal and insert a newline. The current behavior can be a little surprising, for example when typing
return selfyou need to hit Enter twice to insert a newline - first to accept the suggestion, then for the newline. Same goes for typing a bare variable name in the interactive prompt to display it. - Related to the previous suggestion - when there is only one suggestion and that has been fully typed out, hide the suggestion popup entirely.
- Allow dismissing the suggestion popup with Escape on an external keyboard.
- Please take the caps of what the user typed in account when showing suggestions. When I write
typ, I probably wanttype, and when I writeTyp, I probably wantTypeError.
