In addition to the other excellent answers you've received, I'd point you to
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/81584/what-ide-to-use-for-python
where there is a fairly extensive comparison chart of IDEs, features, and
supported OSes.
And, by the way, I'm a very happy camper using BBEdit and WingIDE (the name
collision is purely coincidental).
Thanks,
Bill
