IDLE which you might find comes with python, or is installable separately is a good bet, one nice feature is that when you open up the initial parenthese on a method call, it can list the arguments that the method expects. ipython is very good too, it allows tab completion of class methods/attributes and the like, which can make navigating your way around a new class magnitudes easier. only the former can really be considered an IDE. It'd be great to see them combined somehow. I personally use pida (http://pida.berlios.de). It is perhaps not a beginners IDE, but it has advantages such as being able to plug in a few different editors, some of which are very easy to use. It has a class browser which you can have on a sidebar, integrated docbook support, the ability to open python and other types of shell as part of the window, syntax checking and more. It can aid development to no end. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

IDLE which you might find MS Windows is a must, but having Linux support would be nice too.

Still it would be harsh to force students that might see a PC at the first time to use it. ;) Thanks, Kirill -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

We are trying to teach schoolers with a Python in an advanced elementary school (9th - 11th). Yes, there is a problem with Cyrillic in eric's built-in interpreter window (KOI8 locale is used) and *only* in the built-in interpreter window, but there is short workaround for it: if avoid "# -*- coding..." declaration, Cyrillic is painted well. -- Салют, /GLeb UIN: 15341920 jabber://[EMAIL PROTECTED] sip://[EMAIL PROTECTED] (telephony) skype://gleb_kulikov.tomsk (telephony) sip://[EMAIL PROTECTED] (telephony) netmail: 2:5005/78 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Hmm... Perhaps, you are right. I remember quite well seeing UnicodeDecodeError in eric, but now I couldn't reproduce it. Still it would be good if eric could automatically add the BOM mark to files containing non-ASCII characters (for UTF-8). That way the deprecation warning about PEP 263 would be avoided. There is a bigger problem though: it is difficult (if possible) to install it under Windows. Thanks, Kirill -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Кроме редактора и запускателя скриптов в ide же еще должен быть нормальный отладчик, интеграция с системой контроля версий, автодополнение кода... Под виндами самое приличное из всего увиденного показалось komodo. Да и то, подглюкивает периодически, подвисает, из vcs знает только css да svn. SourceOffSite'а не умеет :( Человеку, привыкшему к нормальному ide от вижуал студии тяжко :) -- С уважением, Alexey mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
