Description: Turn an argument to __init__ into an instance attribute.
For example, you have just typed this:
class MyObject(object):
def __init__(self, crunchiness):
<Cursor is here>(Of course, you can substitute crunchiness for whatever your argument's name is.)
Now, you might want to put a self.crunchiness = crunchiness line in that __init__ method. But that would take so much typing, because self.crunchiness doesn't exist yet, and won't be autocompleted. That would require you to make around 20 keystrokes. I don't know about you, but I'm just not ready for that kind of a commitment.
Instead, type crunchiness. (You'll get autocompletion because it exists as an argument.) Then run this arg-to-attr script.
The final result is that you'll get a self.crunchiness = crunchiness line and have the cursor ready in the next line.
Suggested key combination: Alt-Insert A.
