matascii VS vim-ipython-cell

Very cool to see this – but will only be successful with great terminal plotting tools. The ones the author mentions like the matplotlib interface clearly won't do[0].

A perfect use case for unicode plotting [1] (shameless plug)

hanschen/vim-ipython-cell: Seamlessly run Python code in IPython from Vim with tmux

With stuff like https://github.com/dccsillag/magma-nvim or https://github.com/hanschen/vim-ipython-cell, I rarely never use a Jupyter notebook anymore.

I like to use Vim and Tmux on Linux, however, for Python I often end up using the Spyder IDE as it has the convenient functionality of putting all the plots in one window and allowing me to scroll through it when I have multiple graphs for a script. I am aware of nice solutions like https://github.com/hanschen/vim-ipython-cell and https://gontcharov.be/blog/vim-tmux-python that allow one to use VIM and TMUX. This seems like an excellent solution, but I am missing the figure component. Anybody has a good suggestion for that?

I personally have vim (or neovim) and IPython open in two panes in tmux and then use my plugin vim-ipython-cell to run the code. It supports running code cells similar to what you have in Jupyter notebooks, so you can for example have one cell that reads the data and another cell to make the plot, and then just re-run the plotting part.

If you'd like a Jupyter Notebooks-like experience, where you execute one cell at a time and such, try these together: - https://github.com/hanschen/vim-ipython-cell - https://github.com/jpalardy/vim-slime - tmux or you could try using vim's builtin terminal, though it's a bit... unideal - ipython of course. It's way better for interactivity than python3

If you use vim, you can also try https://github.com/hanschen/vim-ipython-cell . It works quite well
