Showmedo is a peer-produced video-tutorials and screencasts site for free and open-source software (FOSS)- with the exception of some club videos, the large majority are free to watch and download.

Educating the Open-source Community With Showmedo

Although as important as the software it supports, education and documentation are relatively neglected in the Open-source world. Coders love to code, and explaining how best to use or improve the software tends to be deferred or even sidelined.

At Showmedo we believe the community can play a vital role here and also say thanks for the tools and software that make our lives easier. If you have a piece of software you love or a programming langugage you are enthusiastic about, why not make a screencast showing others how to use it? All the stuff you wish you'd been told, the tips, tricks, insights that would have saved you time and frustration.

Screencasting is easier than you think, and we're happy to help you. You can emailus for advice or just use some of the how-to screencasts on the site. This screencasting learning-pathis a good place to start.

Kudos and Thanks for Rocky

Introducing the pydb Debugger

I was really looking for a python debugger integrated with ddd. But, I did enjoy your screencast - it has the feel of "real work" with false starts and on the fly problem solving, etc. Follow ups would be nice.

Introducing the pydb Debugger

Thanks for the demo!

I only this morning became aware of pydb.

Some really great features here.

I'm curious how it will work without the use

of emacs's split window set-up, but I suppose

that I'll find out soon enough!

Cheers, and thank you again!!

Introducing the pydb Debugger

Rocky - Thanks for your work on pydb and the screencast. One suggestion for possible improvement for the presentation: take things one simple step at a time as in this written tutorial ( http://pythonconquerstheuniverse.wordpress.com/category/the-python-debugger/ ). I look forward to using pydb and have posted about it to my local Python User Group. Cheers, John in New Zealand

Nice intro to pydb. I will have to give this a try so I can add this interesting tool to my toolbox.

Introducing the pydb Debugger

sufficient to be curious for the rest of this pydb debugger. I personally prefer the vi (vim) editor - not sure if i'll get same functionality - but inspired to look for that. Thanks
