Thanks for all the replies. I guess I am still used to the microsoft world where you get one editor and it does everything.
As all of you are aware it often takes a significant effort of weeks or months to decide a language or tool doesnt meet all your needs, So I am glad of your advice before diving into evaluating the myriad of tools and systems.

As an IDE like VB I am recommending eric. Depending on which version of Python shall be used (Python2 or Python3) one should use eric4 or eric5. Detlev's recommendation gets a +1 from me but just to give you an alternative you may also want to check out http://www.wxwidgets.org/ and the python bindings at http://www.wxpython.org/. If you go the wxPython route you should also look at Dabo - http://dabodev.com/ , its class designer lets you layout screens/forms Other options are: sqlkit - http://sqlkit.argolinux.org/ - does a lot of guessing/autogeneration of forms (which can be adjusted) if your application is database oriented and uses SQLAlchemy http://wxglade.sourceforge.net/ , layout designer More options can be found here: http://wiki.python.org/moin/GuiProgramming Werner _______________________________________________ Eric mailing list [email protected] http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/mailman/listinfo/eric
