What is LiClipse?
---------------------------

LiClipse is a PyDev standalone with goodies such as support for Multiple
cursors, theming and a number of other languages such as Django Templates,
Kivy Language, Mako Templates, Html, Javascript, etc.

of PyDev.

Release Highlights:
-------------------------------

* **Important**: PyDev requires Eclipse 3.8 or 4.3 onwards and Java 7! For
older versions, keep using PyDev 2.x (use LiClipse: http://www.liclipse.com
for a PyDev standalone with all requirements bundled).

* **Vertical Indent Guide** is now available (may be customized in PyDev >
Editor > Vertical Indent Guide. PyDev-359).

* **Minimap**

    * The horizontal scrollbar is shown by default (again). It's still
possible to hide it in the Preferences > PyDev > Editor > Overview Ruler
Minimap.

    * Fixed critical issue where the minimap could lead to a repaint
recursion on some Linux versions (reproduced on Ubuntu 12. LiClipse-120).

* The PYTHONPATH is now properly passed to PyLint when using an external
executable (PyDev-475).

* Fixed issue where breakpoints in other editors (i.e.: CDT) where wrongly
being handled by PyDev (patch by Danny Yoo. PyDev-482).

* Fixed issue doing code-completion for builtins in Jython (PyDev-457).

* **Interactive Console**

    * When doing a code-completion with Ctrl+Space, let tab change the
focus instead of doing the tab-enabled completion.

    * Output given from the backend could end up being editable (PyDev-465).

    * input() was including the prompt in the input string (PyDev-465).

    * Debugger console was outputting greeting message when it shouldn't
(PyDev-464).

* **pep8**: --exclude can now be used in pep8 parameters (patch by
Sebastian Elsner. PyDev-466).

* **autopep8**: end line delimiter is now being kept (patch by Ben Blank.
PyDev-461).

* Unittest integration: Making sure we don't import the unittest module
before executing pytest (PyDev-455).

* Unittest integration: Fix to use the proper encoding when passing
stdout/stderr to the java side.

* Fixed issue when debugging file without extension (when there was no
default editor associated to the file name).

* Debugger: getpass properly working with additional arguments (PyDev-460).
