Hi all, On the behalf of Spyder's development team ( http://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/people/list), I'm pleased to announce that Spyder v2.2 has been released and is available for Windows XP/Vista/7/8, GNU/Linux and MacOS X: http://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/.
This release represents 18 months of development since v2.1 and introduces major enhancements and new features: * Full support for IPython v0.13, including the ability to attach to existing kernels * New MacOS X application * Much improved debugging experience * Various editor improvements for code completion, zooming, auto insertion, and syntax highlighting * Better looking and faster Object Inspector * Single instance mode * Spanish tranlation of the interface * And many other changes: http://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/wiki/ChangeLog This is the last release to support Python 2.5: * Spyder 2.2 supports Python 2.5 to 2.7 * Spyder 2.3 will support Python 2.7 and Python 3 * (Spyder 2.1.14dev4 is a development release which already supports Python 3) See also https://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/downloads/list. Spyder is a free, open-source (MIT license) interactive development environment for the Python language with advanced editing, interactive testing, debugging and introspection features. Originally designed to provide MATLAB-like features (integrated help, interactive console, variable explorer with GUI-based editors for dictionaries, NumPy arrays, ...), it is strongly oriented towards scientific computing and software development. Thanks to the `spyderlib` library, Spyder also provides powerful ready-to-use widgets: embedded Python console (example: http://packages.python.org/guiqwt/_images/sift3.png), NumPy array editor (example: http://packages.python.org/guiqwt/_images/sift2.png), dictionary editor, source code editor, etc. Description of key features with tasty screenshots can be found at: http://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/wiki/Features Don't forget to follow Spyder updates/news: * on the project website: http://code.google.com/p/spyderlib/ * and on our official blog: http://spyder-ide.blogspot.com/ Last, but not least, we welcome any contribution that helps making Spyder an efficient scientific development/computing environment. Join us to help creating your favourite environment!
