I find it annoying having to close windows produced by Python's
matplotlib.pyplot
before running the code again.So I created this keyboard shortcut:
But the
run
commands was being executed too soon - before previous process fully closed - so the new process could not be registered correctly. The result was that new processes (matplotlib
windows) would spawn every time I pressedF5
.So I created
stopWait
command that waits for the process to emit"close"
event after it receives the kill signal.It is a drop-in replacement for the
stop
command in the shortcut:I'm using Python as an example here but this should work for any programming language that waits for anything when run (i.e. user input, network request).
