For anybody who wants to help test this –

1. Download this file: [https://github.com/tabreturn/processing.py-for-processing-4/raw/main/PythonMode-4.0a4.zip](https://github.com/tabreturn/processing.py-for-processing-4/raw/main/PythonMode-4.0a4.zip)
2. Extract it and place the PythonMode directory in your sketchbook _modes_ directory (see **File \> Preferences** menu in Processing for this location). Replace any existing PythonMode files.

If you’re running Processing 3 and 4 on the same system, they both use the same sketchbook location (but this build _seems_ to work fine in both).
