Added a simple command-line tool to my pysimconnect package. Makes it easy to search for simulator variables, events and measurement units from the SDK documentation; inspect, change or watch variables over time; as well as sending simulator events, all without writing any code. Even auto-completes on variable names. Some examples below.

Wow! Thanks for this! I was able to get the get/watch/set comments working, but not the search commands! I haven’t been a developer in over 10 years, and I promise I tried to troubleshoot, but it seems like there’s a file missing from the package? See screenshot.
Showing that I can connect and “watch” ok.
EDIT - I found the file in your Github page. I downloaded the scvars_idx.json file, added it to the local install and all is working fine. Thanks again for the great tool!

Great catch, my bad on the distribution config. Updated to v0.2.3 which should include that file in the build. Please share any other bugs / suggestions / feedback you find!

Updated to pysimconnect v0.2.6 which adds support for string and integer (flag, enum, mask) simvars and fixes a couple of other user-reported issues
Hello,
This is awesome!
I had a bit of trouble getting it to work but that was all due to me needing some research. For some reason I had to manually add the path for SimConnect to the PATH environmental variable.
It all works now. 
Thanks for your efforts!
