Winpdb - A Platform Independent Python Debugger

Winpdb 1.3.6 is available for download, this time with a couple of bug fixes and compatibility with Python alpha 3 and Python 2.6 alpha 1. You can grab it from here.

Winpdb 1.3.4 has been released and includes compatibility with Python 3000 alpha 2, console auto completion, support for Python eggs and many bug fixes. You can grab it from here.

Winpdb has moved to winpdb.org. Now that it has a home of its own it will probably feel more comfortable to hear laud music until late hours.

I am still considering a name change to reflect the fact that Winpdb is not MS Windows Specific.

It is a shame that the Win prefix is so strongly recognized as Win32 specific prefix. After all GNU/Linux X11 is called “X Window System”. Therefore, a window is a general term that applies to GNU/Linux as well.

Winpdb is actually being developed on Ubuntu.

In the mean time, until a name change occurs, you can take Winpdb to mean any of the following:

• Normal acronym: Windowed Python Debugger
• Recursive acronym: Winpdb is Not Pdb
• Semi recursive acronym: WIN = Win is Not win32

Winpdb 1.3.2 has been released with several bug fixes. You can grab it from here.

The first Python debugger with full Unicode support and py3k compatibility is here.
