./configure –enable-pythoninterp –with-macsdk=10.6

via Chris Moyer: OSX, Vim, and Python.

The Windows line endings (^M) can be easily removed with most editors. In ViM it is very easy.

To remove all windows line endings (and replace with nothing), type the following:

:%s/^V^M//g


(note that the ^V will not display).

Sometimes it is necessary to add a line break as well:

:%s/^V^M/\r/g


Partly based on a Tech Recipes article.

Pasting code into a VIM running in terminal has never worked properly for me. It occured to me that Google might have some information on the topic. It turned out to be ridiculously easy:

:set nopaste

Paste your code, and then:

:set paste

There are numerous pages and blog posts about Vi and Vim out there so here’s my small contribution. Here are some less frequently used commands that tends to be useful from time to time:

:g/pattern/d

g;

g,

mLETTER

'LETTER

gU

gf

:/pattern/yank A

C-w -

C-w +

You will be asked to specify the where Python interpreter is located:

Please configure a Python or Jython interpreter in Window -> Preferences -> PyDev
before creating a new Pydev project

• Press Apple key and , (Preferences) and browse to the Python Interpreters submenu
• Choose New in the upper right and browse to /usr/bin/python
• Eclipse will then take care of the rest for you – ie. updating the $PYTHONPATH

NOTE: I use Eclipse 3.3.2 on Mac OS 10.5.2.
