Ironpython IDLE
« on: November 09, 2010, 04:08 PM »
I've ironpython installed on my computer and i found out that there is no IDLE for it. They do have visual studio integration option but i can't install VS on this computer. is there any other ironpython IDE/IDLE option available ?

I tried IronPython a while back and there is a console that comes with it.  I seem to remember it being called ipy.exe or something like that...

Yes there is ipy.exe but they removed IDLE from this distribution. And that is the reason i'm looking for IDLE or some IDE to work with it.

It's not free, but I'm now using PyCharm as my IDE.  For an IDE for a dynamically-typed language, it works very well.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I also found : http://ironpythonstudio.codeplex.com/

But it's not maintained anymore.  :down:

There is support for python on sharpdevelop (still in beta) that i have to check for now.
