tkinter-edit

A basic text editor made in Tkinter.

Features:

• Word count and character count, both including and excluding newlines.
• Run and evaluate Python statements on the text for fast editing.

Usage

• A home file will be opened on start (tkinter_edit_save.txt).
• Save, create and open files using the toolbar menu.
• Files are not written to disk until they are saved using the toolbar menu or the hotkey Ctrl+S.

Advanced Usage

• Run Python statements using the toolbar menu. Warning: This application permits arbitrary and unlimited execution of Python statements.

• Statements that evaluate to a string will replace the text content. t or text contains the current text. For example, to replace all instances of 'cat' with 'dog' in the entire text, run:

t.replace('cat', 'dog')

• Any other result will be outputted to the console standard output.

• The modules attribute has been hard-coded and allows functions from other modules to be run from the Run menu. See the docstring for App.run_module for further details.

• The character count starts from the position set in the toolbar menu and automatically terminates at the symbol ---.
