Warning: This program still has many bugs. It is not to be used for anything serious at this point.

Keypad is a text editor written in Python with a flexible plugin system.

• Hackability: Unlike heavyweight IDEs such as Eclipse, Keypad makes simple plugins easy to write.
• Flexibility: Keypad uses a model-view-controller architecture to isolate the GUI from the text editing logic, allowing for the possibility of additional user interfaces. For instance, it would be possible to build a Curses frontend.
• Lack of Dogma: While Keypad is optimized for a certain style of text editing, it can be easily modified to suport others.

• Python >= 3.3
• PyQt4
• Either pathlib or Python 3.4
• Either enum34 or Python 3.4

• Clang 3.3

Note: In order to use Clang for code completion, you may need to add a file to your PYTHONPATH with the name stemrc.py and the following contents, substituting the path with one appropriate for your system.

#!python
import pathlib
import keypad.plugins.cpp.options
keypad.plugins.cpp.options.ClangLibrary = pathlib.Path('/Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/lib/libclang.dylib')

• Jedi

python3.3 -m keypad
