Yes, I tried it and it's alright, but it doesn't support smart 
indentation or much customizing of syntax highlighting (i.e. you can 
change the color of functions, but you can't define what a 'function' 
is, or at least I have no idea where this can be done). It seems like 
what most editors do is highlight user-defined functions as they are 
defined, so:

def func()

'func' would be highlighted here, but not when you call it elsewhere in 
your script. Furthermore, there isn't support for built-in Python 
functions and methods.

The thing I liked about UltraEdit is that you can define your own groups 
of words and put whatever words you want in there, so my file had a 
group called '__builtins__' and it listed all the Python built-in 
methods, and those would be highlighted. Most editors I see don't seem 
to allow this...they just figure out what a function or method is on 
their own somehow.
