Description: ====
        Alto
        ====
        
        This Django app allows you to browse the urlpatterns for your project, see the source code of each view, and open that code in your favorite editor [*]_.
        
        Planned features include the ability to browse and search for apps, models, templates, tags, filters, and celery tasks.
        
        Possibly planned features are for Alto to become a `Light Table`_ plugin.
        
        Alto is PRE-ALPHA software. It probably won't work with your project. There is no support. Unless you're ready to work on it, you should hold off for a few releases.

        Requirements
        ------------
        
        * Python 2.7
        * Django 1.4
        
        Other versions may work, but have not been tested.
        
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        ``pip install alto``
        
        
        Setup
        -----
        
        1. Add ``'alto'`` to your ``INSTALLED_APPS``
        2. Add ``url(r'^_alto/', include('alto.urls'))`` to your urlaptterns
        3. Visit http://127.0.0.1:8000/_alto/
        4. Add ``ALTO_URL_SCHEME = 'txmt'`` to your settings for TextMate support. The default is ``'mvim'``.
        
        This will expose the source code of your site, so be sure to take proper precautions like only enabling the url pattern if ``DEBUG=True``.
        
        
        Thanks
        ------
        
        Alto is inspired by `Bret Victor`_'s talk, "`Inventing on Principle`_" and by `Light Table`_.

        .. [*] As long as your favorite editor is MacVim or TextMate. In theory, any editor that can be made to open a file from a custom url scheme will work.
