Project: PPE

Equinox · 01-20-2014, 09:44 AM

Lately, I've been working on a project I call "PPE". This stands for "Python Programming Environment".

I've been using Visual Studio but as of lately it is becoming really annoying. I cannot work with all the tools I require because it is very limited to what can be done.

Anyone know of a program at least similar so I can do this?

Requirements:

Must be able to have numbered lines where a textbox is due.
Must be able to have syntax highlighting in the textbox.
Must be able to edit icon and name.
Menustrip (Ex: File, Edit, etc.)
Editable indentation.
Must be able to save, open and create new projects

If nobody knows of a program, then maybe a different method of finishing or doing the project. Thanks.

You can do all that in visual studio.

I can't seem to do it. As far as syntax hightlighting goes, I know you can do that.

The problem with it, when using a richtextbox and saving as a python file, it won't start because of the richtext part of it.

Uhh... IDLE does this... It's just not written in VB

Also, I think everything you listed there is possible in vb.

And I know IDLE does this, but I want to create a program similar to it.

I don't know the exact way to do it right, but the way I'd do it to be lazy would be if a word I want to change the colour of is typed, have it get selected, then set its brush appropriately.
