如何以交互方式调试python vim脚本？

Question

I have a vim plugin that I'm writing in python, however I need to debug the python script. How can use pdb (or preferably ipdb) in the vim script itself? When I use pdb vim just hangs with no output, and when I use ipdb it turns vim into garbaged output.

You could try rpdb to debug remotely. Where the remote is just a different tab in your shell.

Just install Winpdb (not windows specific anymore) http://winpdb.org/ It includes rpdb2 which is a remote version of pdb and winpdb itself is a nice graphical debugger.

Usage example with Winpdb:

import rpdb2
rpdb2.start_embedded_debugger('some password')

And from Winpdb:
