scite python API

'''gen_python_api.py generates a python.api file for SciTE
The generated api file includes
*) all Python keywords
*) all builtin functions
*) all module attributes
Module functions are represented by their docstring if available,
otherwise by the function definition from the source file.
Classes are represented by their constructor if available.
Usage:
Edit the list of modules which should be excluded. This list is located
some lines below. Look for excludemodulelist = [...]
Specify the modules whose contents should be added as global names
(i.e. from parrot import *). Look for addasgloballist = [...]
Start the script by typing 'python gen_python_api.py' in the shell.
Don't start it from within SciTE on Win32 systems, because some
modules need a TTY when they are imported.
Copy the generated python.api file into your SciTE directory and
add the following lines to your SciTEUser.properties file:
api.*.py=$(SciteDefaultHome)/python.api
api.*.pyw=$(SciteDefaultHome)/python.api

calltip.python.word.characters=._$(chars.alpha)$(chars.numeric)
Restart SciTE. Enjoy.
