Eduardo O. Padoan: > You are almost *describing* reinteract: - Thank you for the link and the software, I have not tried it yet, but from the screencast it looks quite nice. - I am glad that there are people that don't think that Emacs is (despite being good) the alpha and omega of editing. There's space for other ideas beside Emacs. - Maybe I was describing reinteract there, but that's only the first part of my post :-) - I can see that reinteract is based on a interaction style quite similar to the shell of Mathematica. I was talking about something different, and more similar to TextCalc, but in the end I think reinteract may be good enough for my purposes, so I'll try to run it. And I may be happy enough. - Eventually I may find the time and will to create my "interactive python text" :-) I think there's space for many different solutions. - Despite many years of experiments, development, shells, editors, and the like, I am sure there are other designs not yet tried or not common enough yet (beside the normal editors, shells, smart object- oriented graphical shells like hotwire shell, Resolver One, and few other weird things, like one where you can zoom text and images at different scales, other text-based systems, etc).
