QtPyHammer

A Python alternative to Valve's Hammer Editor (4.X in particular)

Creating the dev environment

It's recommended to use a python virtual environment to preserve the version of dependencies, here's how you do that:

First, open a terminal in the QtPyHammer-master folder (the top level!)
Then, create a new python(3.8+) virtual environment
(Linux users may need to install python-venv first)
$ python -m venv venv
Activate your new virtual environment
Windows: $ call venv/scripts/activate
Mac / Linux: $ source venv/bin/activate
Finally, install all dependencies with pip $ python -m pip install -r requirements.txt

You can now run QtPyHammer from the terminal
$ python hammer.py
