DISQUS

Keith Fieldhouse · 3 years ago

I'm delighted to see signs of your renewed interest in BRM. I've become somewhat addicted to Eclipse's refactoring support for Java and have started working with BRM to get some of the same support when I do Python development. I've been astonished with just how effective BRM is. Astonished becuase the software doesn't seem to get an enourmous amount of attention given how useful it is.

I use SPE which doesn't have refactoring support but is otherwise a very nice Python IDE. I've taken to using BRM's integration with IDLE -- treating that combination as a "refactoring browsing" sidecar to SPE. Not ideal but still *very* useful.

You might want to know that the BRM 0.9 tarball contains a corrupt BicycleRepairMan_IDLE.py -- bunch of non-whitespace characters around line 303. I got around it by downloading the HEAD of that file from Sourceforge CVS.

Best regards,

Keith

Yet unknown for the public, but SPE will support refactoring through BRM soon.
