Hello! I was a big fan of Atom editor, and I’m very glad that Pulsar is continuing the legacy of Atom. My concern/question is, how in the heck do I install plugins? Specifically, plugins for python? And also, is there a terminal/space to run Python code like there is in VSCodium? In VSCodium, there’s a play button and code runs automatically in the built in terminal. Any help is appreciated!

    I wanted to use a built-in terminal. Like running python code and having it show up in the built-in terminal

      So this is stuff we have been talking about a lot recently. At the moment the only terminal that I’m aware of that is 1) maintained and 2) working properly is x-terminal-reloaded which is maintained by one of the members of the core Pulsar team.

      However I’m not aware of anything that will output to it. The various script runners I mentioned before will output to their own panels (atom-runner, script and script-runner). However another person on the team is currently developing a new script runner package that currently outputs to its own pane:

      However we were talking about the possibility that it could maybe interface directly with x-terminal-reloaded to provide output directly in the terminal.

        Yes! That’s what I’m looking for. I’ll download the x-terminal-reloaded plugin as well.
