Run with Shift+F9 in Pycharm. If you choose any line in your Ryu app to debug, the console will show you the data about this variable like the following screenshot:

To add utf-8 compatibility in all your scripts, one solution is enable a template that add this compatibility and other information as copyright, your name, etc. File and code templates are written in the Velocity Template Language (VTL). So you may include variables as ${YEAR}, ${USER}, etc. To add code to your scritps go to File/Settings.../Editor/File and Code Templates Select Python Script and add the following lines: #!/usr/bin/env python2 # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- # Copyright (C) ${YEAR} ${USER} Now, if you create a new Python file, it will generate with this header code by default. If you want more VTL variables please go  here Enjoy it!

PyCharm is another IDE for Python (in my last post I see how to install Spyder ) It has the advantage that you have multiples modes of view.  My favourite is the presentation Mode, perfect when you have a presentation and you need magnify the fonts and you need to show a on-demand code execution. Also, you can install jupyter to run ipython notebook inside the IDE.  To install PyCharm follow these commands: wget https://download-cf.jetbrains.com/python/pycharm-community-2016.2.3.tar.gz tar xvf pycharm-community-2016.2.3.tar.gz cd pycharm-community-2016.2.3/bin ./pycharm.sh Now, to install ipython and jupyter, follow these commands: sudo apt-get install ipython-notebook sudo pip install jupyter Run PyCharm and now create a new project.
