Python development on Kubuntu or Ubuntu with emacs !

Here is what you have to do

1. Get the python mode files from https://launchpad.net/python-mode , it is a gz file with 4 files and 1 readme in it.

2. unzip that and put the files in your home folder (~/)

3. Now create a file .emacs in your home folder (if you have it already its fine). Add this to the file

----

(load "~/python-mode.el")

;;python

(setq auto-mode-alist (cons '("\\.py$" . python-mode) auto-mode-alist))

(setq interpreter-mode-alist (cons '("python" . python-mode)

interpreter-mode-alist))

(autoload 'python-mode "python-mode" "Python editing mode." t)

(global-font-lock-mode t)

(font-lock-mode +1)

----

4. Now restart emacs.

5. Write python code and then C-c C-c for executing it .. C-c ! for the shell ..

Have fun !
