    Any wing2.0 users here?

    emacs has been my long time companion for php, perl, and python. My boss
    recommended to me Wing2.0, I find it hard to adjust though. What can you
    say about this IDE? He say's if I think it could improve my productivity
    he's willing to buy it for me. Suggestions for better python IDE's are
    welcome! Thanks in advance! ^_^

      There's a few IDEs with a ~ $30 license and ~ $300 licenses: black
      adder, TruStudio, which I don't know anything about. I like Komodo, it
      works well on perl and python (the ruby debugger setup has speed
      issues, but otherwise works well for ruby too), colorizes C, SQL and
      HTML source pretty well, and the $30 license really isn't missing much
      from the $300 license. And you shd look at jedit, eclipse, and
      textmate, since they're out there.

          There was a thread about Python IDEs lately with reviews of many of
          available Python IDE options, so check it out for more details ("Wingide
          is a beautiful application" December 17, 2005).

          I personally currently encourage everyone to use SPE as you can adjust
          it to your own needs and can let others profit from the work you have
          done to improve it.

          Wing is interesting only in its professional version beeing quite
          expensive compared to what you gain with it, but if you can get it 'for
          free' I would recommend to use it in parallel to your emacs for the
          Python specific features like go to definition (with automated reloading
          of file on changes made in the other editor) as long as you are in
          process of using the available source code to adapt it to your specific
          needs.

              I like WingIDE best on Windows. You can try Wing: They offer a 30 day eval
              version.

                      Never used any IDE for a long time with Python, as any of them lacked
                      "the thing I would be willing to spend $$$ for". I couldn't go for Java
                      without Eclipse's debugger, but I am happy to write Python code without
                      debugger. Strange, isn't?

                          Not strange for me.

                          To be honest, the more experience I have, the less I can understand what
                          a debugger is for. Can't even remember when used one last time. This is
                          valid also for programming in C/C++ or Java, so in my eyes the
                          "Debugger? No, Thanks!" is not limited only to Python or other script
                          programming languages.

                          Any professional programmer here who were really missing something very
                          important when forced to program without a sofisticated debugger?
                          If yes, could it be, that they program hardware driver or operating
                          system kernels?

                              Nonono, interactive debuggers are very nice and helpful in most of
                              cases, such as in Java or C programs. I just didn't found any use for
                              interactive debugger with Python, so IDE's offer of "interactiv e
                              debugger" is no-op for me.

                              Anyway, I like Komodo and PyDev, only because they have nice project
                              management features (also available at no cost in jEdit and Kate). I
                              think, most of commercially available IDE's have something like that.
