Qutepart depends on:
- Python 3
- PyQt5
- pcre
Versions up to 2.2.3
used to work on Python 2 and PyQt4.
1. Install pcre and development files
On Debian, Ubuntu and other Linuxes install package libpcreX-dev
, where X
is available in your distribution pcre version.
For other OSes - see instructions on pcre website
On Debian, Ubuntu and other Linuxes install package python3-dev
, on other systems - see Python website
It will probably be gcc
python setup.py install
- Download and install the CMake binary. Tested with 2.8.12.
- Download and install Microsoft Visual Studio Express Edition 2010 (or the full version).
- Create a root directory and place the following as subdirectories in it:
- Download the pcre source. Tested with v. 8.37.
- Download the latest Qutepart release.
cd <pcre-8.37 source>
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL=OFF -DPCRE_SUPPORT_UTF:BOOL=ON -DPCRE_SUPPORT_JIT:BOOL=ON -G "Visual Studio 10 2010"
cmake --build . --config Release
cd qutepart
python setup.py install --include-dir=../pcre-8.37/build --lib-dir=../pcre-8.37/build/Release
Kate and Katepart (an editor component) is really cool software. The Kate authors and community have created, probably, the biggest set of highlighters and indenters for programming languages.
- Qutepart uses Kate syntax highlighters (XML files)
- Qutepart contains a port from Javascript to Python of Kate indenters (12% of the code base in version 1.0.0)
- Qutepart doesn't contain Katepart code.
Nothing is wrong with Katepart. Qutepart has been created to enable reusing highlighters and indenters in projects where a KDE dependency is not acceptable.
