SPE (Stani's Python Editor) is an open-source python IDE with auto indentation & completion, call tips, syntax coloring & highlighting, UML diagrams, class explorer, source index, auto todo list, sticky notes, pycrust shell, file browsers, drag&drop, context help, Blender support, ... Spe ships with Python debugger (remote & encrypted), wxGlade (gui designer), PyChecker (source code doctor) and Kiki (regex console).
To support the development of SPE for Mac, some enthousiastic mac SPE users have started a fund raising campaign to buy a Mac for SPE: "What it would be worth to you to have a new release of SPE running on your Mac Os X the same day as it appears on other platforms? $50? $75? $100? My company, Dartware, has contributed 250 Euros to start the fundraising. We're willing to give a major boost because it's worth it for us to have a nice environment for Python programming." - Rich Brown (Dartware) Acquiring a Mac for SPE will allow to optimize it properly and to release it simultaneously for Mac Os X. Any donation is welcome, but of course generous donations are necessary. Due to the high Paypal commission fees, European users are explicitly requested to donate through IBAN. More info on the donation page. Until now people donated 314 Euros. 416 Euros is still required to make the purchase (mini Mac & KVM switch) go through. If some people would donate 50 euros, this target could easily get archieved. Otherwise if you have an old Mac, which runs Os X and which you are ready to give to SPE, contact me. If someone is able to convince Mac to do some sponsering, please contact me as well. The new version of SPE 0.7.5.b, which will include the debugger, will be released soon.
