        *Winpdb Reborn - A GPL Python Debugger, reborn from the unmaintained
        Winpdb*
        
        by Philippe Fremy as maintainer, and Nir Aides as initial author

        # Description
        
        *Winpdb Reborn* is a portable (Windows / Linux / macOS) standalone graphical debugger for Python. It focuses on making debugging
        easy and does not include any IDE features. It has very little dependencies (only wxPython for the GUI).
        
        **Features**:
        
        - graphical interface with stack/variable inspection, breakpoints and more
        - breakpoints: on lines or functions, with possible conditions, load/save breakpoint info
        - multi-threaded debugging
        - smart handling of fork, follow parent or child
        - remote debugging: GUI on one computer, program to debug on another computer with encrypted communication
        - up to 20 times quicker than pdb, the default Python debugger (on which many other debuggers are built)
        - debug PyPy scripts
        
        **Note:** The original Winpdb was no longer maintained since the v1.4.8 release in
        2010. With the agreement of the author (Nir Aides), I (Philippe Fremy) am providing a maintained version with new
        functionality under the *Winpdb Reborn* name.
        
        # Requirements
        
        Platform supported:
        
        -  Linux
        -  Windows XP and above
        -  macOS is probably working but not tested
        
        To run Winpdb Reborn:
        
        - CPython 3.5 or above and wxPython 4
        
        This version is for Python 3 only. A stable version of Winpdb for Python 2 is available on PyPi: https://pypi.org/project/winpdb-reborn/1.5.0/ and in the branch *winpdb-reborn-python2* . You will need Python 2.7 and WxPython 3 to run it.
        
        Note that running Winpdb with PyPy is possible, by launching rpdb2.py with ``pypy`` and using the Winpdb GUI to connect to it.
        
        Winpdb Reborn is NOT compatible with Jython or IronPython.
        
        # Release history
        
        ## Version 2.0.0
        
        - port Winpdb to wxPython 4 / Python 3
        - the effort is still in progress

        -  Add support for Python 3 GUI (using wxPython Phoenix)
        -  Allow installation of all dependencies with pip
        -  Add support for Python 2.7, 3.5 and 3.6
        -  Drop support for Python 2.5 and wxPython 2.6, min versions are now Python 2.6 and wxPython 3.0
        -  rpdb2.py is now compatible with Python 3
        -  Add support for PyPy to Rpdb2
        -  Can now specify a different Python interpreter for the program under
           debug, allowing PyPy support
        -  Avoid crash on Windows when closing debugger
        -  Support dragâ€™n drop of files to load source code
        -  Add unit-tests and a functional test suite
        -  Add a Continuous Integration server with travis CI
        -  Can adjust behavior of debugger to activate/deactivate the breakpoint before exit
        -  fix for launching Gnome Terminal properly
        
        
        ## Version 1.4.8
        
        Last stable version released by Nir Aides.
        
        # Installation
        
        (not working yet until the new version is released).
        
        The standard way to install Winpdb Reborn is with pip, as administrator/root::
        
            # python -m pip install winpdb-reborn
        
        You must also install the wxPython for your version of Python: 
        
        -  for Python 3, wxPython is automatically installed as a dependency with pip
        -  for Python 2, check https://sourceforge.net/projects/wxpython/files/wxPython/
        
        *Winpdb Reborn* is not packaged yet by any Linux distro. If your package manager proposes
        to install Winpdb, thatâ€™s the old unmaintained Winpdb which works neither with Python 2.7 nor with Python 3.
        
        ## Additional installation methods
        
        To install from a checkout or from an archive::
        
            # python setup.py install -f
        
        ## No install mode
        
        If you donâ€™t want to install Winpdb Reborn, you can still try it by calling it explicitly with
        your program to debug::
        
            $ python /the/path/to/winpdb.py my_program.py 
        
        ## Where do the files go ?
        
        The setup script copies rpdb2.py and winpdb.py modules to the Python
        site-packages folder. The scripts rpdb2 and winpdb are copied to the
        Python binaries (scripts) folder. On Linux, this folder is usually ``/usr/bin`` 
        and is in the path by default. On Windows, this folder is ``%PYTHONHOME%\Scripts``,
        where you should see a winpdb.exe and rpdb2.exe .
        
        
        # Usage
        
        If you have installed Winpdb Reborn, the simplest way to launch it is::
        
            $ python -m winpdb my_program.py
        
        or even::
        
            $ winpdb my_program.py
        
        Find out about the other command-line options with ``â€“-help`` .
        
        # Documentation
        
        Use the ``-h`` or ``--help``  command-line flag for command-line help.
        
        Inside Winpdb/Rpdb2 console, use the ``help`` command for detailed description of
        debugger commands.
