How about IDLE? It's a nice tool for the Python programmer. I've tried

Since I currently only program in Python, IDLE does fine for me.
Write code, hit F5. If the result is not right, maybe type a few
interactive lines to get more info before going back to the edit window.
Maybe someday I will look to see what alternatives such as below offer,
but if they do not put me in an interactive interpreter or imitation
thereof, like IDLE, to do post-mortem examination in, I would not likely
switch.
I find Stani's Python Editor (SPE) also good for small to medium jobs, and I
think that it might achieve many of the OP's objectives.
If you just want something small and Python-specific then DrPython is
also a reasonable choice. It uses the Scintilla editor component that is
also used by Scite, another possibility (though personally I find the
bare Scite editor just a little too tweaky to configure).
