Great if it worked.
Judging by the description, this is exactly the kind of program I want. Unfortunately, it hardly works. It refuses to except my specific Python executable, despite setting it up properly in the language settings. It always uses its internal Python, which doesn’t have my libraries. It has an option for invoking the bash_profile, but it doesn’t work. None of the variables, aliases, etc. that I have in my bash_profile are visible to Coderunner (tried running a simple bash script within it to echo variables). Even if these things did work, Coderunner freezes about every fourth time I click “Run.” I must force quit to get out of it and of course, I lose all my work. Finally, support is non-existent. I emailed the developer a week ago, no response; their “support” page has two FAQs; and despite being #1 in the app store developer category, Googling for help comes up with a scant few stack overflow responses on issues unrelated to the numerous ones I have.
Great vision, poorly executed. I’ll come back when it works as intended. And I really want to.
