__init__()

OnUpdateUI()

Override the OnUpdateUI of the EditWindow class, to prevent syntax highlighting both for faster redraw, and for more consistent look and feel.

configure_scintilla()

Set up all the styling option of the embedded scintilla widget.

continuation_prompt()

Returns the current continuation prompt. We need to implement this method here to deal with the ascii escape sequences cleaning up.

get_line_width()

Return the width of the line in characters.

input_buffer

Returns the text in current edit buffer.

new_prompt()

Prints a prompt at start of line, and move the start of the current block there.

The prompt can be given with ascii escape sequences.

pop_completion()

Pops up an autocompletion menu. Offset is the offset in characters of the position at which the menu should appear, relativ to the cursor.

scroll_to_bottom()

write()

Write given text to buffer, while translating the ansi escape sequences.
