Use Vim to control FoxDot or pym2149 with the aid of GNU Screen.
# Tested on Linux and Mac:
pip3 install --user Concern
You will also need one of the following backends.
# Simply install, and Concern will use it:
pip3 install --user FoxDot
# Install as usual:
pip3 install --user pym2149
# Tell Concern to use it instead of foxdot:
echo Concern consumerName = pym2149 | tee -a ~/.settings.arid
# Any arguments are passed to vim, here we discover the FoxDot demo directory:
Concern "$(python3 -c 'from pkg_resources import resource_filename; print(resource_filename("FoxDot", "demo"))' | tail -1)"
- FoxDot is running in the right hand third of the screen
- Send code to FoxDot by typing backslash followed by
]
- This will send the smallest top-level suite under the cursor
- The backslash is actually your Vim leader key
- Use visual mode to send multiple top-level suites at once
- Use backslash enter instead of backslash
]
to send from cursor to the end of the file - Use backslash
q
to quit all of Vim, FoxDot and GNU Screen
# GitHub trick to download some files to play with:
svn export https://github.com/combatopera/pym2149/trunk/contrib
# Load a non-trivial tune written in pym2149's (currently nameless) live coding language:
Concern 'contrib/Lemmings 2 Tune 6.py'
- Once pym2149 has initialised, type backslash enter at the top of the file to send the whole program
