• Shell completion (for commands, options, and choice values):
  • Generate the activation script: _PYCTURE_COMPLETE=source_zsh pycture > pycture-complete.sh.
  • In .bashrc or .zshrc, source the script: . /path/to/pycture-complete.sh.
  • Alternative: eval "$(_PYCTURE_COMPLETE=source_zsh pycture)".
• aiohttp package (vs. Requests):
  • "(...) you can picture the session object as a user starting and closing a browser: it wouldn't make sense to do that every time you want to load a new tab." (source)

# aiohttp
async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
    async with session.get("http://python.org") as response:
        print(await response.text())

# vs.

# Requests
response = requests.get("http://python.org")
print(response.text)

# or

with requests.Session() as session:
    response = session.get("http://python.org")
    print(response.text)
