-<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id4" id="introduction" name="introduction">Introduction</a></h1>
-<p>This document will show you how to use the Py programs and the Py
-library of Python source code modules. Py is the new name for the
-project that began as PyCrust. Py is officially part of <a class="reference" href="http://www.wxpython.org/">wxPython</a>,
-and includes PyCrust, so PyCrust is no longer distributed separately.</p>
-</div>
-<div class="section">
-<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id5" id="developer-reference" name="developer-reference">Developer Reference</a></h1>
-<p>Source code documentation for developers is available at:</p>
-<p><a class="reference" href="http://www.orbtech.com/www/wx/epydoc/public/wx.py-module.html">http://www.orbtech.com/www/wx/epydoc/public/wx.py-module.html</a></p>

-<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id6" id="what-is-py" name="what-is-py">What is Py?</a></h1>
-<p>Besides being <a class="reference" href="http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pie">a delicious dessert</a>, Py is the name for a collection
-of whimsically-named Python programs and modules that began as the
-PyCrust project. So Py is really several things: a set of standalone
-programs, including the original PyCrust program, a library of Python
-source code modules that can be used in your own programs, and as many
-examples of bad "pie" puns as I can come up with. (If you're going to
-do something, you might as well do it all the way, right?) Py uses
-Python and wxPython, so it works equally well on Windows, Linux and
-Mac OS X.</p>
-</div>
-<div class="section">
-<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id7" id="pycrust-is-dead-long-live-py" name="pycrust-is-dead-long-live-py">PyCrust is dead! Long live Py!</a></h1>
-<p>This project began with a program I created called PyCrust - an
-interactive, graphical Python shell, developed using the wxPython GUI
-toolkit. For about two years, PyCrust was hosted on <a class="reference" href="http://www.sf.net/projects/pycrust/">SourceForge</a>.
-Shortly after I created PyCrust, the wxPython folks started including
-it in their distribution. As the PyCrust project grew, it reached a
-point where I thought the original PyCrust name was too confining. I
-was using the PyCrust code base to develop programs that weren't just
-Python shells any more.</p>
-<p>Around that same time, the wxPython folks asked me if I'd be willing
-to move all my wxPython-related projects into the <a class="reference" href="http://cvs.wxWidgets.org">wxPython CVS
-repository</a>, and become part of the <a class="reference" href="http://www.wxpython.org/">wxPython</a>/<a class="reference" href="http://www.wxWidgets.org/">wxWidgets</a> developer team.
-I decided the time was right to restructure the PyCrust project.
-During the move, the PyCrust package was renamed to "py" (lowercase
-"p") and the collection of programs and modules as a whole became
-known as "Py" (with a capital "P").</p>
-<p>The original goal of PyCrust was to be the best interactive, graphical
-Python shell (of course, I claimed it was the "flakiest" Python
-shell). And that was all I wanted it to be. But little by little I
-found myself developing a wider variety of tools for wxPython
-applications. Eventually I'll create a debugger (PySlice, perhaps)
-and whatever else is needed to one day become a complete wxPython
-application development environment (PyFactory?). In the mean time,
-PyCrust is still the flakiest Python shell, and the other Py programs
-are equally tasty.</p>
-<p>At this point, Py has standalone programs that include Python code
-editors (PyAlaCarte and PyAlaMode), interactive Python shells (PyCrust
-and PyShell), and a runtime wrapper (PyWrap). The runtime wrapper
-utility provides you with runtime introspection capabilities for your
-wxPython programs without having to include PyCrust or PyShell in your
-program, and without having to alter one line of your source code.</p>
-<p>Py also contains a collection of modules that you can use in your own
-wxPython applications to provide similar services, either for your own
-use during development, or as an interface for users of your programs.
-These modules are the same ones used by all the Py programs.</p>
-</div>
-<div class="section">
-<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id8" id="py-standalone-programs" name="py-standalone-programs">Py standalone programs</a></h1>
-<p>These are the standalone applications in the Py collection:</p>
-<ul class="simple">
-<li>PyAlaCarte</li>
-<li>PyAlaMode</li>
-<li>PyCrust</li>
-<li>PyFilling</li>

-<div class="section">
-<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id9" id="pyalacarte" name="pyalacarte">PyAlaCarte</a></h1>
-<p>PyAlaCarte is a Python source code editor. It is designed to have a
-simple, single-file interface. As a standalone application, it is
-good for simple, short editing tasks. But it is really meant to be
-more of an example of how to embed the Py editor into a wxPython
-application.</p>
-</div>
-<div class="section">
-<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id10" id="pyalamode" name="pyalamode">PyAlaMode</a></h1>

-</div>
-<div class="section">
-<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id11" id="pycrust" name="pycrust">PyCrust</a></h1>
-<p>PyCrust is an interactive, Python shell. But it's more than just a
-shell. It includes a tabbed notebook containing a namespace tree
-(PyFilling), and several other things.</p>
-</div>
-<div class="section">
-<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id12" id="pyfilling" name="pyfilling">PyFilling</a></h1>
-<p>PyFilling is a namespace viewer. It isn't really useful as a
-standalone program, but it does illustrate how to make use of the
-underlying <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">filling</span></tt> module.</p>
-</div>
-<div class="section">
-<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id13" id="pyshell" name="pyshell">PyShell</a></h1>
-<p>PyShell is an interactive, Python shell. It shares the same base code
-as PyCrust, but doesn't have any of the extra features that appear in
-the PyCrust notebook interface.</p>

-<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id14" id="pywrap" name="pywrap">PyWrap</a></h1>
-<p>PyWrap is a runtime utility that lets you run an existing wxPython
-program with a PyCrust frame at the same time. Inside the PyCrust
-shell namespace, the local variable <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">app</span></tt> is assigned to your
-application instance. In this way you can introspect your entire
-application within the PyCrust shell, as well as the PyFilling
-namespace viewer.</p>
-</div>
-<div class="section">
-<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id15" id="py-modules" name="py-modules">Py modules</a></h1>
-<p>Py was designed to be modular. That means graphical code is kept
-separate from non-graphical code, and many of the Py modules can be
-used by other programs. Likewise, other programs can supply some of
-the modules needed by Py. For example, you could supply a customized
-interpreter module and plug it in to the PyCrust standalone
-application. As long as it supports the minimum functionality
-required, PyCrust will work just as well with your interpreter as with
-its default interpreter.</p>

-<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#id17" id="history-of-changes" name="history-of-changes">History of changes</a></h1>
-<p>This section lists all the changes that have been made to the Py
-programs and modules, since the beginning.</p>
-<div class="section">
-<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#id18" id="id1" name="id1">0.9.5 (12/23/2005)</a></h2>
-<p>Applied a series of enhancments by Franz Steinaeusler, Adi Sieker, and
-Sebastian Haase, up until their 7-31-2005 version. (Their next
-version broke some existing functionality, and added some confusing
-hacks, and I didn't feel that the incremental gains were worth the
-loss at that point so I stopped at 7-31-2005.)</p>
-<p>Their changes include the following:</p>
-<ul class="simple">
-<li>The Autocomplete and Calltip windows can now be opened manually with
-Ctrl-Space and Ctrl-Shift-Space.</li>
-<li>In the stand alone PyCrust app the various option settings, window
-size and position, and etc. are saved and restored at the next run.</li>
-<li>Added a help dialog bound to the F1 key that shows the key bindings.</li>
-<li>Added a new text completion function that suggests words from the
-history. Bound to Shift-Return.</li>
-<li>F11 will toggle the maximized state of the frame.</li>
-<li>switched to Bind() from wx.EVT_*().</li>
-<li>Display of line numbers can be toggled.</li>
-<li>F12 toggles a "free edit" mode of the shell buffer. This mode is
-useful, for example, if you would like to remove some output or
-errors or etc. from the buffer before doing a copy/paste. The free
-edit mode is designated by the use of a red, non-flashing caret.</li>
-<li>Ctrl-Shift-F will fold/unfold (hide/show) the selected lines.</li>
-</ul>
-<p>On top of these changes I (Robin Dunn) added the following:</p>
-<ul class="simple">
-<li>General code cleanup and fixes.</li>
-<li>Use wx.StandardPaths to determine the location of the config files.</li>
-<li>Remove Orbtech attributions from the UI, they've been there long
-enough.</li>
-<li>Use wx.SP_LIVE_UPDATE on crust and filling windows.</li>
-<li>Extended the saving of the config info and other new features to the
-PyShell app too. Additionally, other apps that embed a PyCrust or a
-PyShell can pass their own wx.Config object and have the Py code
-save/restore its settings to/from there.</li>
-<li>All of the classes with config info get an opportunity to save/load
-their own settings instead of putting all the save/load code in one
-place that then has to reach all over the place to do anything.</li>
-<li>Enable editing of the startup python code, which will either be the
-file pointed to by PYTHONSTARTUP or a file in the config dir if
-PYTHONSTARTUP is not set in the environment.</li>
-<li>Added an option to skip the running of the startup code when
-PyShell or PyCrust starts.</li>
-<li>PyCrust adds a pp(item) function to the shell's namespace that
-pretty prints the item in the Display tab of the notebook. Added
-code to raise that tab when pp() is called.</li>
-<li>Added an option for whether to insert text for function parameters
-when popping up the call tip.</li>
-<li>Added Find and Find-Next functions that use the wx.FindReplaceDialog.</li>
-</ul>

-<p>Removed docs tabs from crust interface:
-* wxPython Docs
-* wxSTC Docs</p>
-<p>Fixed Calltip tab refresh problem on Windows.</p>

-<p>Continued enhancement of the decorator capability to provide better

-<p><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Filling.tree</span></tt> now expands tuples as well as lists. (It should have

-<p>Added this True/False test to all modules:</p>
-<pre class="literal-block">
-try:
- True
-except NameError:
- True = 1==1

-</pre>
-<p>Added <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">wxd</span></tt> directory with decoration classes.</p>

-(Thanks, Kieran Holland.)</p>
-<p>Fixed minor things found by PyChecker.</p>
-<p>Changed locals to use <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">__main__.__dict__</span></tt> and added code to clean up
-the namespace, making it as close to the regular Python environment as
-possible. This solves the problem of pickling and unpickling
-instances of classes defined in the shell.</p>
-<p>Made <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">shell.PasteAndRun()</span></tt> a little more forgiving when it finds a
-ps2 prompt line with no trailing space, such when you copy code from a

-<p>Improved autocomplete behavior by adding these to shell:</p>
-<pre class="literal-block">
-self.AutoCompSetAutoHide(False)
-self.AutoCompStops(' .,;:([)]}\'"\\<>%^&+-=*/|`')

-<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">stcConstants.py</span></tt>. These all serve the purpose of adding docstrings
-to existing wxPython classes, in particular the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">wxStyledTextCtrl</span></tt>.</p>
-<p>Added <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">wrap.py</span></tt>, a command line utility for running a wxPython app
-with additional runtime-tools loaded, such as PyCrust (the only tool
-at this point).</p>
-<p>Flushed the clipboard Cut/Copy operations so that selections will
-exist in the clipboard even after PyCrust has been closed.</p>
-<p>Improved the suppression of docstrings for simple data types appearing
-in the namespace viewer.</p>
-<p>Better handling of autocompletion with numeric types; no
-autocompletion when typing a dot after an integer. If the
-autocompletion is desired, type a space before the dot:</p>
-<pre class="literal-block">
-func = 3 .
-</pre>
-<p>More Filling!!! The namespace tree is now dynamically updated.</p>

-Enter as well as Tab to select an item from the list.</p>
-<p>Disabled autocomplete for lists of 2000 items or more. The current
-implementation of wxSTC can't handle lists this big.</p>
-<p>Changed <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">filling</span></tt> to always display docstrings for objects. This is
-useful for objects whose docstrings have been decorated, rather than

-<p>Changed <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">introspect.getRoot()</span></tt> to identify some situations where

-<pre class="literal-block">
->>> import PyCrust # To illustrate the potential problem.

-<p>Typing the dot at the end of "PyCrust" in the second line above should

-Similar reasoning applies to call tips. For example:</p>
-<pre class="literal-block">
->>> len('dir(')
-</pre>
-<p>Typing the left paren at the end of "dir" should NOT result in a call
-tip.</p>
-<p>Both features now behave properly in the examples given. However,
