Snaked user manual

Snaked (snake editor) is light and minimalist editor inspired by Scribes, mainly targeting python developers, it’s generic enough to please other kind of users too.

Features:

  • Light UI. There are no menu, tool bar, status bar or project browser at all. Only lasts the editor view itself.
  • gtksourceview2 based.
  • Keyboard oriented control.
  • Automatic projects. In most cases you do not need such boring operation like File ‣ New project. With Snaked you just start editing your file!
  • Project navigation via Quick Open dialog.
  • Sessions - restore the last state (or any explicit session).
  • The current position is also stored of each edited file.
  • Python auto completion and navigation via rope with very flexible type hinting framework. Plus an advanced support for PyGtk and Django.
  • Basic python code hints via pyflakes.
  • Snippets (macro-like code expansion for common coding patterns).
  • Unittests (with py.test as backend, so there is support for usual UnitTest cases, nose cases and py.test itself).
  • Multilingual Spell checking.

Note

Just a brief remark: I’m not a native English speaker so you may feel some confusion reading this manual. Please, share your discomfiture with me. I’ll be very grateful for that.
