Subject: [ANN] Spyder 3.0 is released!
Hi all,
On the behalf of the Spyder Project Contributors (https://github.com/spyder-ide/
spyder/graphs/contributors),
I'm pleased to announce that Spyder 3.0 has been released and is available for
Windows, GNU/Linux and MacOS X: https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/releases
This release represents more than two years of development since version 2.3.0 w
as
released, and it introduces major enhancements and new features. The most import
ant ones
are:
* Third-party plugins: External developers can now create plugins that extend Sp
yder in
novel and interesting ways. For example, we already have plugins for the lineprofiler
and memory-profiler projects, and also a graphical frontend for the conda pack
age

manager. These plugins can be distributed as pip and/or conda packages for aut
hors
convenience.
* Improved projects support: Projects have been revamped and improved significan
tly in
Spyder 3.0. With our new projects support, people will have the possibility of
easily
working on different coding efforts at the same time. That's because projects
save the
state of open files in the Editor and allow Python packages created as part of
the
project to be imported in our consoles.
* Support for much more programming languages: Spyder relies now on the excellen
t Pygments
library to provide syntax highlight and suggest code completions in the Editor
, for all
programming languages supported by it.
* A new file switcher: Spyder 3.0 comes with a fancy file switcher, very similar
in
spirit to the one present in Sublime Text. This is a dialog to select among th
e open
files in the Editor, by doing a fuzzy search through their names. It also lets
users to
view the list of classes, methods and functions defined in the current file, a
nd select
one of them. This dialog is activated with `Ctrl+P`.
* A Numpy array graphical builder: Users who need to create NumPy arrays in Spyd
er for
matrices and vectors can do it now in a graphical way by pressing `Ctrl+M` in
the Editor
or the Consoles. This will open an empty 2D table widget to be filled with the
data
required by the user.
* A new icon theme based on FontAwesome.
* A new set of default pane layouts for those coming from Rstudio or Matlab (und
er
`View > Window layouts`).
* A simpler and more intuitive way to introduce keyboard shortcuts.
* Support for PyQt5, which fixes problems in MacOS X and in high definition scre
ens.

Spyder 2.3 has been a huge success (being downloaded almost 550,000 times!) and
we hope 3.0 will be as successful as it. For that we fixed 203 important bugs,
merged 218 pull requests from about 40 authors and added almost 2850 commits
between these two releases.

=======================
Subject: [ANN] Spyder 3.0 is released!
Hi all,
On the behalf of the Spyder Project Contributors (https://github.com/spyder-ide/
spyder/graphs/contributors),
I'm pleased to announce that Spyder 3.0 has been released and is available for
Windows, GNU/Linux and MacOS X: https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/releases
Spyder is a free, open-source (MIT license) interactive development environment
for the Python language with advanced editing, interactive testing, debugging
and introspection features. It was designed to provide MATLAB-like features
(integrated help, interactive console, variable explorer with GUI-based editors
for NumPy arrays and Pandas dataframes), it is strongly oriented towards
scientific computing and software development.
<The rest is the same as for the list>

============
Subject: [ANN] Spyder 3.0 seventh public beta release
Hi all,
On the behalf of the Spyder Project Contributors (https://github.com/spyder-ide/
spyder/graphs/contributors),
I'm pleased to announce the seventh beta of our next major version: Spyder 3.0.
We've been working on this version for more than two years now and as far as we
know
it's working very well. There are still several bugs to squash but we encourage
all
people who like the bleeding edge to give it a try. This beta version is release
d
two weeks after our sixth one and it includes more than 200 commits.
Spyder 3.0 comes with several interesting and exciting new features. The most
important ones are:
* Third-party plugins: External developers can now create plugins that extend Sp
yder in
novel and interesting ways. For example, we already have plugins for the lineprofiler
and memory-profiler projects, and also a graphical frontend for the conda pack
