Ok, I failed in basic usage:
Entering nbterm, I assumed some standard key bindings -- None seemed to work. Neither Ctrl-C, Ctrl-D, Ctrl-x ctrl-c, escape q, escape :q, ... seems to work.
So off to google:
Escape Ctrl-q should work. But does not.
Ok I'm stuck, let's at least get 1+1 to work.
So entering 1+1 and .. hitting Enter? Shift Enter? No.
Ok, command mode, Ctrl E.. aaaaand it's stuck.
Looks nice but I just don't seem to get it to work using anaconda on macos..
- de6u99er 5y agoThe project's README might help. https://github.com/davidbrochart/nbterm https://github.com/davidbrochart/nbterm
- Infernal 5y agoTo be fair the poster you’re replying to seems to have run the correct commands indicated by the README, unless I’m missing the same thing they are.
- mark_l_watson 5y agoThanks, just what I was looking for. I used to use a matplotlib backend that worked with ITerm2 for coding in a remote server (standard technique, that I also cover in my Hy language book). Adding Nbterm would also be useful. Off topic, but it is sometimes just (much) better to do development on a remote server with much more compute and faster Internet connections.
- prionassembly 5y agoI'm curious, what version of Hy are you targeting in your book?
- mark_l_watson 5y agoThe latest public version (pip install Hy). I don’t generally install from the GitHub repo. I know that Hy is no big deal, just a Lisp skin on top of Python, but I really enjoy using it. Hy is an example of “done” software: it was written years ago, and just does what it is meant to. I have noticed comments on Reddit about Hy not being actively maintained, but as I said, it is “done.”
- whitten 5y agoIn my field, I hear the word "legacy" used for applications that just work, and don't require a lot of tweaks because they handle the use cases that come up commonly.
- fzimmermann 5y agoYes, it would help if those key combinations would work (even though they are still at least unusual). The quit combination does not work and neither does evaluating a cell. Does anybody have luck actually getting it to work? Edit: The issue is using a new environment without ipykernel installed (not a dependency of the conda package). With ipykernel, I can exit nbterm and even evaluate cells
