I use wing. Wing does cost $ (but they have a freebie). So why am I willing to pay for the use of of editor when VIM, eclipse, and many others are available free of any cost. Because I use it on a daily basis and it is simple. I don't have to recall just how to get something done using a special command. I can write scripts, debug (has a very good debugger), code completion, provides project management. Etc... etc... The bottom line is I like it and I'm not alone there are a large number of pro's using wing. But you should fine out what you like by testing the editors. There is a large list of editors available including the latest from Netbeans. -- John Fabiani _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
