python-mode.el

Display current method/class in status bar

Asked by Thomas Güttler

If a method is long, I don't see the "def mymethod(self)" line any more. It would be very good if python mode could display "mymethod" or better "MyClass/mymethod" in the status bar.

Is this already possible?

Thank you, this solved the problem.

To make it available for future sessions I use this:

M-x customize-variable<RET>
which-function-mode

Toggle the value to 'on', then set for the current session and save for future sessions

Hallo Thomas,

solltest Du sonst etwas vermissen, feature-requests sind stets willkommen.
Im Bug-tracker mit "whish-list" auszeichnen.

Von mir aus könnte es auch etwas Diskussion über den jeweils richtigen Weg geben.
Vielleicht ist python-mode.el dafür aber auch zu speziell.

Gruß aus Berlin,

Andreas
