This page is intended as a place to suggest features for DreamPie.

DreamPie is a graphical interactive Python shell which is designed to be reliable and fun. Check it out at http://dreampie.sourceforge.net/

Richer function documentation

This is a feature from IPython which is frequently requested. I think that the model should be Eclipse - when you type a paren after a function name it opens a yellow popup window which displays its argument and a bit of documentation, and lets you make it a real window by pressing F2.

Complete module names

This was a bug report by cool-RR: https://bugs.launchpad.net/dreampie/+bug/525610

IPython completes module names. That's a good idea.

More by cool-RR: Complete things that aren't defined yet

Imagine I'm writing this function:

def factorial(n):
    import random
    random.whatever()
    return n * factorial(n-1)

I'd want DreamPie to autocomplete both the whatever thing and the use of factorial inside the definition. Probably hard, I know.
