some scripting bugs

Hi Matthias,

I observered the following issues/bugs while scripting with python:

1) The namespace is not cleared before running a script. That means that objects that have been used in a previous run or in another script are sill alive in the current run. This can lead to surprising results sometimes.
2) The infix operator on regions results in a crash, i.e.
a = pya.Region()
b = pya.Region()
a -=b
3) After some time the console window seems to ignore all print() calls. It can be reactivated by closing and opening the IDE.

Anyway, great program!

Regards, Christian

    Hi Christian,

    thanks for these observations.

    1. There is no way to clear a namespace. At least not as far as I know. You're working inside a life interpreter of a dynamic language. With all side effects.
    2. That's a known issue. For a workaround see here
    3. Can you give some more details? Which OS (Windows/Linux)? Does that happen with a simple loop of print's?

    Hi Matthias,

    regarding 3): this happens on windows. I will do some tests and report back.
