Access to console history, or run commands
-
Curious if any of the following use cases are supported, for moving back and forth between console and editor:
- Run specific lines from editor in console. Since copy/paste into console only works one line at a time, it can be tedious on iOS (I abhor the hold-to-copy methodology in iOS)
On second thought, I should be able to used exec() for this... right?
Will exec() execute into the current interactive session if run from an action menu?-
Get access to console history, to be able to copy last N lines back to editor.
i.e. once I'm done hacking around in interpreter, I want to capture what I've done back into the main script. I don't see anything in the console module that gives me access to history.... is it there and i'm missing it? -
Likewise, is it possible to get access to console output? That's in theory easier, as you can copy multiple lines from console to editory, but, again, I find hold-to-select never quite works the first time especially in non text entry areas.
Random: I love the custom keyboard in pythonista... does seem to be missing % though?
thanks

@JonB, just a little note. % isn't missing. Just hold + sign for a while, and you should see submenu with + and % signs popping up :)
