Rope is a Python refactoring library that can be used with several editors and IDEs. It provides many refactoring operations as well as forms of code assistance like auto-completion and access to documentation. To make use of refactoring in Mercurial, Git and Svn repositories, the recommended packages must be installed. For a complete list of features, see the project homepage.

In Debian, this package is used by the Python-ropemacs package, an Emacs mode that adds Python refactoring and IDE features to the Emacs editor.

This provides the Python 2 version of the library.
