thk! great video ..

:o)


55. Doug Raines Sat, 03 Jul 2010 23:48

Great beginner tutorial! The versions of Python and Eclipse used in the video are a bit dated now (it's now 2010), but I managed to get the two scripts executing on the first try!


54. Milica Jovanovic Tue, 29 Jun 2010 10:36

great video :)


53. Coffee_fan Fri, 18 Jun 2010 18:24

It would be great if this video could be in greater resolution.

An excellent video and overall concept of this session, I am actually 30 years in IT business (old hacker) :-) and please take my congratulation from Prague, Czech Republic

This saved me a ton of time. Nice work. Thanks.


49. BHARATH REDDY CHERUKULA Tue, 27 Apr 2010 04:55

You have done a wonderful job! Truly perfect. Just one suggestion for your benefit.

1. The process has changed a bit too much for new folks to follow you easily. You would do well to update the stuff with the minor changes in order to make it useful for the new guys.

What is here is very useful and informative though.

Thanx.

Bharath Cherukula.

PyDev now at http://pydev.org/updates


47. Zach Mon, 12 Apr 2010 01:20

Robert, thanks so much! This helped me out a lot! Great tutorial....you should do some more with how to use eclipse on a mac in general - all the features, etc. You're tutorial was fantastic!!!! Thanks again! ~Zach


46. Richard Potthoff Sat, 27 Mar 2010 12:10

It worked! Thank you!


45. Patrick Sat, 13 Mar 2010 19:55

That was really great! Although some of the menu locations have changed (e.g., Preferences is no longer under Window), I found the tutorial to be very useful. The pace was great and I'm very happy to report that I have Eclipse actually installed, seeing its interpreter, and using pydev. Thank you!


44. R. Mark Sharp Thu, 18 Feb 2010 21:32

Very helpful getting started. Resolution was a bit of a problem.


43. Newbie2010 Mon, 01 Feb 2010 08:55

Hey this little video is still being helpful to the folks!

I just used it today to setup eclipse for python on my mac after a night of !@#@.


42. Sun, 17 Jan 2010 08:36

thanks a lot, very well explained and useful !!


41. anonymous Thu, 31 Dec 2009 11:45

hi im using Eclipse 3.5.1 but i cant find the option find and install :S where is it


40. anonymous Wed, 23 Dec 2009 19:00

Excellent tutorial! Went through the basics, just need an update, but fantastic work!


39. anonymous Fri, 27 Nov 2009 15:21

Thanks!! That was very helpful.


38. anonymous Mon, 09 Nov 2009 03:59

I'm using Eclipse platform 3.5.1 on OS X 10.5.8, a few commands have changed but this tutorial was very helpful... Great job.


37. anonymous Sun, 25 Oct 2009 02:56

Thank you!


36. anonymous Sat, 17 Oct 2009 03:17

thank you!


35. anonymous Sat, 10 Oct 2009 15:31

Thanks a lot!

I am new to Python, programming...everything it seems and your video greatly aided me in overcoming this very steep learning curve to get started!

Great job with the video!


34. anonymous Thu, 08 Oct 2009 10:53

Thanks for the quick overview of setting up PyDev on the Mac.


33. anonymous Tue, 18 Aug 2009 17:45

Very nice and it did allow me to start quickly firing python code.

Thank you very much


32. anonymous Thu, 30 Jul 2009 13:58

clean and concise. Good job. You might mention where one should go from here. How do I make applications that DON't run in just the Eclipse console? Can apps be created to run from the Mac's menu bar? Is a browser required? etc...


31. anonymous Tue, 07 Jul 2009 13:30

Hey it was a nice and easy video. One tip, fast forward anything that has loading on it. Unless I realllly needed to setup eclipse, I probably would have bolted from the video mid-loading screen.

Any tips on how to make eclipse/pydev Google App Engine smart?

Thanks!!!

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 Robert

Automation with Firefox extension ChickenFoot (Macintosh or Windows)

Thanks for the video for ChickenFoot. A few questions :- How can automation be done for mobile web based softwares? What would be your views on packaging the automation along with the web package? ---- Feedback : The video was crisp. Items like future ideas and extension ideas can add more spice. --- Thanks
