On Windows... I uninstalled Komodo (several times; fat, crashes, slow debugger ...) I uninstalled Wing I uninstalled Boa I uninstalled PythonWorks (does it still exist?) I uninstalled SPE (nice homework, but bugs and no continuity) ... I still live with good old Pythonwin coming with the win32all package by default. Its fast, direct, no rubbish, extensible/open source, keys go efficiently the way you know from MS / Borland, the joint in-thread debugger & interactive is a plus for iteratively evolving python code (from scripts to bigger apps) at high speed. On *nix I didn't invest in learning one. Maybe eric3 (is there similar confusion as with Boa?) Generally I'd say: Python is a language so good that at best it IS itself the IDE. Tools should be around a main interactive prompt, which carries forth life status. This paradigm allows for best tool automation (and integration of different tools) and code iteration. Thus: Python should use the (IDE) tools - And NOT: the IDE uses Python (as one is accustomed to in compiler langs) -robert -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
