There's always been that extra little step of going from working code to pretty graphs/animations that acts as a barrier to entry to where I almost never do that part. It's not that it's hard, it's just always a PITA with a bunch of required boilerplate and always requires that I dig through the API.
This streamlines that process in a way I didn't think would be possible.
That said.... maybe I'm doing something really dumb, but it's basically unusable for me right now on windows since every time I type the letter "d" it just highlights the line in the interpreter instead of typing the letter. I see this issue has been mentioned already in github though.
I'd love to keep playing around with this some more. I'm also SUUUUUPER curious about doing some GIS integrations using the qgis python libraries.
oh whoops! I saw that error earlier and forgot to fix it. The idea was to replicate sublime text's feature for highlighting words with ctrl+d, but there is some kind of error for detecting when ctrl is being used as a modifier key in windows. I'm going to fix that later today and upload a new build. Thanks for the heads up
EDIT: problem should be fixed now. I have just uploaded a new windows build to the website and pushed the changes to master on GitHub. Tested it on my windows machine and it looks like the fix is working properly. Re-downloading the installer file and installing again should resolve the issue.

Dude, this is a GREAT concept!
