This may sound strange, but I need a better way to build python scripts than opening a file with nano/vi, change something, quit the editor, and type in python script.py, over and over again.
I need to build the script on a webserver without any gui. Any ideas how can I improve my workflow?
put this line in your .vimrc file:
:map <F2> :w\|!python %<CR>
now hitting <F2> will save and run your python script
