Winpdb is a platform independent GPL Python debugger with support for multiple threads, namespace modification, embedded debugging, encrypted communication and is up to 20 times faster than pdb.

he most popular cryptographic software for Windows is probably TrueCrypt. In this article I will explain how TrueCrypt works and as a by-product a working Python implementation will be provided. This article is written from a programmer perspective and the math will be kept to the minimum. The emphasis is on how TrueCrypt uses cryptographic primitives such as AES and SHA-1, not how the primitives themselves work.

Following my thoughts yesterday, here are some VIM python scripts to add python breakpoint and debugging features to VIM. With this set up the F7 key will set a breakpoint on a line of code, Shift-F7 will remove all breakpoints and Shift-F12 will execute a script in the python debugger. This only runs on windows as far as I know, because it uses the 'start' command to launch the debugger in a seperate process without VIM waiting for it to finish. This allows you to look through the source code (and fix it) while the debugging is still in progress.
