Ah. I didn't consider that. I've added the puzzle  topic to the presentation
ideas page (and +1'd it).

Yes. I used Latex too.

Puzzle generation and puzzle to image conversion were done in Python.
Typesetting and pdf generation were done using Latex.

I've used reportlab to make pdfs using Python and serve them off a
webserver. Extremely easy to use and very feature rich. I don't know about
interfacing with LaTeX...

On a more general note, the puzzles idea is neat. I think we can have a
session on that in one of our meetings.

I can do a presentation of web.py, but I can do some thing more interesting.
How about a presentation on "Puzzle Generation using Python"?

I did some work a generating puzzles. The goal was to run a script and
get PDF as output.

I faced lot of challenges during development. To list a few:

* generating puzzle
* converting it to image
* typesetting to make PDF
* unicode support for Indian Languages

Here are some sample puzzles if you want to have a look.

Does this sound interesting?

+1 for WingIDE Pro. I just upgraded my license from 2.x Mac to 3.x Linux and
I couldn't be happier.

We've had the IDE discussions before..many times on many mailing lists.
Would love to hear from Amit about NetBeans Python support.

I personally mostly work on Windows...so PyScripter
 is the choice for me (its a complete
IDE only 6MBs heavy). On linux, it has to be Emacs :))

Capital! I've put your name next to the item on the wiki page. Going
strictly by what's there, it's the only item for which people are interested

I'm guessing that there are some people around who are capable of presenting
some stuff on web development frameworks (say... web.py? *wink* *wink*). If
they're willing, we'd have two nice presentations lined up for next month.

Re: [BangPypers] IDEs Presentation (was Re: Do we have any NetBeans IDE for Python users here?)

[Lakshman Prasad]

While we are at the discussion about Py IDEs,

May I suggest an awesome thread on stackoverflow, discussing about Python
IDEs.

Here is my 2 cents to that thread:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/81584/what-ide-to-use-for-python/495355#495355

For all professional python developers, I think Wing IDE is simply the
choice, because it is the best IDE out there.

Reminds me of XKCD: http://xkcd.com/378/

A little unrelated but nevertheless

There was (and is) interest expressed in knowing about editing setups (
http://wiki.python.org/moin/BangPypers/PresentationTopics).

Since you're actively involved in developing IDEs and plugins, I think it
would be great if you could volunteer a presentation on the topic for the
next Bang Pypers meeting.
